Meme/Poll

[paraka]

So, for those of you who signed up for my Real Life Meme and said it was cool to call you, please take a moment to fill out this poll. I almost called people last night but it was getting latish, and didn't want call at a bad time.

If you didn't sign up for this meme, when I originally posted it, it's not too late! I will call/mail letters anywhere in the world (I'd love to go visiting too, but sadly I can't go anywhere I can't drive to :( )

[Poll #1018803]

Also, con pictures tonight! I promise!

Heh...last night I was up until a little after 1. Granted, I was watching movies and then catching up on The 4400 for most of that, but movies can be paused.

Texas under California, eh? Granted, we are techincally further south than they are, but there's still a couple of states between us. Of course, I can't always talk. There are still quite a few states that I forget. And when I have to deal with "states" or their equivalent in other countries? Yeah, not so much. Canada, I know where Quebec and Nova Scotia are and that's about it. I can point out most of the major cities, but naming provinces?

Anyway, I say any day is free and I just got a call from PJ and we're gonna go shoot some pool tonight, so I'd say tomorrow would be a better bet. It'll be more fun if we can actually talk. ;)

:P Me too, I went around all day like a zombie because I was so tired, and then I didn't go to sleep until around 1.

I said something really stupid to a customer one day trying to guess where Texas was (neither of us really knew), and then looked it up. I think I've got the *picture* straight in my head, but for some reason I have trouble remembering that it's only 1 time zone behind me and think I should wait until, like Vancouver times to call.

And we only have 10! (and 3 territories) I know that I would die if I had to know where all the states were. I'm happy when I can figure out which one a place is in from the abbreviated mailing address.

Anyways, I'll try and call you tomorrow then. Also, is that a new icon?

Isn't that always the case, though? I know that the days I'm the most tired, invariably, I'm up even later than normal. But then I get so tired that I come home from work and nap and then I get this huge second wind.

That reminds me of earlier this year when I was in Deleware and Mum was in Las Vegas and I completely forgot that she was three hours behind me instead of just one. I called her at 0900 my time...0600 her time. She was *not* happy. It probably didn't help that I wasn't repetant in the least. But I was bored.

Coolness. I look forward to it. It's fairly new. geonncannon made it...not too long ago. I forget when. All of my SG icons except the "brilliant" one are by him. If you check his LJ, his got about 50 of them for most of the recent eps for SG-1 and SGA. Most of them are femslash oriented, though he does have some awesome Rodney icons.
