Hannah weiss alles. Punkt.
...which translates to: Hannah knows everything. Period. This astonishing (and, sadly, false) pronouncement comes to you courtesy of The Sloganizer (see link at left). If you're in the right mood (silly and/or bored) it can provide hours of entertainment. If you're not, well, why are you reading my blog?
I had a pretty good day today. I was excused from jury duty last Thursday, so I am not in trouble, and I am excused from it tomorrow as well, so I think I will probably go walk around at the Hermitage for a bit and maybe go on the swings (shh, don't tell anyone, okay?). It's been way too long since I spent any length of time outdoors, and the weather is getting cooler, so it's time to maybe not look quite so much like a vampire.
Now, the bad news: my car is making a squealing sort of noise. I think it might be the brakes? (I don't know much about cars, but I have a vague idea that brakes and squealing are connected.) So on Monday (when I get paid) I'll have to see if I can get a state inspection/general tune-up kind of thing and pray that I have enough money to get whatever it is fixed.
*Nerd warning: Star Trek Shipper discussion ahead*
So...I just finished reading Nanotech Wars (ST:V), which has a Chakotay/Seven subplot...and I like Chakotay, don't get me wrong. He's a great guy...but I just don't seem him being the right person for Seven. I might as well admit that I got hooked on Janeway/Seven, and nothing else seems quite right to me. That could just be conditioning, but...I don't think it is. Not completely, anyway. Chakotay always seems like somebody who plays by the rules. Somebody who's willing to let somebody else make the decisions. He's all sensitive and handsome and everything, but I don't know if he's strong enough to handle Seven. I don't know if he'd be willing to fight for her w/ Starfleet and the world in general, which I think is what it would take. And if you read Homecoming and The Farther Shore you can see that Christie Golden doesn't think so either.
*Warning ends*
Goodnight, everyone.
