More Book Blahs

December 17th, 2006 Yvette No comments

Wired has a review of "She’s Such a Geek" written by one of the editors of the book. It links to the book’s blog.

This is the book for which I submitted an essay, which I haven’t read or touched since the Rejection. I know that I’m going to read this collection of essays eventually, but I am dreading it a little. I’ll try to be positive, and I’ll probably geek inferiority complex while reading all the deliciously geeky things these other ladies have done. What have I done? Oh, pretty much been interested in geekology. Hmph. 

I also purchased a big screen tv tonight with my husband. It will be delivered on Thursday. It’s a good thing that there is a lot of time of work starting next Saturday, because I have a feeling that my productivity will fall with 60" of gorgeous talking pictures to watch and interactively manipulate (game playing). So booyah, editors of She’s Such a Geek!

Oh, and here’s an early New Year’s resolution: to get off my ass (er, rather, stay on it?) and write something goddamned worthwhile. Including updating the geek test and returning some of the clever emails I’ve received of late. Do I dare to look at the first blog post I wrote this past January? Jury’s still out on that.

In the meantime, if all goes well, Ben and I will be running PVC pipe through walls in the house tomorrow and then snaking more coax and Cat 5e cables through them to wire additional rooms.
