Thank you, Evil I. Yes, I did pass my silly lawyer test. And thank goodness. It was kind of important, and yes, I was drunk most of the weekend.
In other news, I turned 28 last week. Almost forgot to tell you. The past couple weeks have been a little nuts whatwith my birthday and the whole silly lawyer test results things.
And guess who's going to see Regina Spektor on Thursday? Me and Girl, who we will call G, because her name happens to start with G, which is convenient. I wanted to propose to Regina at the concert, but that might not be the best idea since G will be there and all. She would probably put the kaibosh* on that. Either way, I'm really excited. I'm hoping Regina plays Dusseldorf. It's become my favorite song of hers. I also managed to hook some people at work on Regina and they are going to the show as well. I think Regina should move to Dallas so we can start a band. A punk band. Can you see it? I can. I bet she'd be all about a punk band.

I always thought it was pronounced "kibosh."

Hmm. Is the "i" short or long? I thought it was long.
Wow, we are nerds.

Kibosh. Like a kibob. Accent on the last syllable.
Who's with me?

The link spells it "kibosh/kybosh." I've heard it pronounced both ways, but I don't know which is correct, being a big ol' shiksa and all. But while we're on the subject, I have a hard time with "tchotchkes" - did I get it right? I love that word. So much more fun than "knick knack."
Also, does Particleman have a Particlewoman now? Where are all the juicy entries about that? And does she own a Particlegirl thong? Cuz she should. That would be awesome.

Oh, and by the way, why is it ParticleMAN and ParticleGIRL? You know it irritates me when women are called "girls." Why the misogyny on the site, huh? What's up with that, ParticleMAN?

Oy. Particlegirl is not Particlewoman because the logo looks way better. Take a look:

Particlewoman just wouldn't be the same.
Tchotchkes is in definitely a great word. Love it.

I think G may soon be the owner of a shiny new Particlethong...
Sorry, no juicy entries. But if you go to the swearing-in ceremony, maybe you can meet her. Oh by the way, i'm coming to the swearing-in ceremony!
