A side order of spinach please

Firstly, Happy Birthday Kevin Bacon! You have such a delicious name!
So my hand may be permanently cramped up from writing up so much research at work. o_O Eesh. My fingers no longer fing! Well.. Not really. At least it's interesting, and not studying something like.. Math *shudder* No, I have had an obsession with military medals as of late, and today I was studying up on the Victoria Cross. ^_^ Which, has to be my favorite (which is probably because it's the highest honour, but yes). Although the Commander of the British Empire medal is really faaancy, I feel like someone wearing it would fall right over.
Alright, geekiness aborted.
For now.
I did go to an amazing BBQ last night though. It was all old co-workers from my last job, also in a museum. But a little more fun, in a living history, dressing up and gossiping and re-enacting, kind of way. It was funny though, since I hadn't seen any of them in a year (which I missed them terribly) So when I rang the doorbell I suddenly heard the high pitched squee, next thing I know I'm being buried in a hug and it's all smiles and the same as it was before :) Perhaps the funniest part besides clothespin doll soap operas was my ex-Fort Husband introducing me to new people as "This is my ex-country/fort wife. The useless white one." *eyeroll* Then again, there's a reason the HBC guys married the Aboriginal woman, they knew the land, how to work and were tough. Not delicate like those Europeans and Eastern Canada "ladies". Which in the HBC, as a white girl, I guess I was supposed to be. Pah, that didn't happen.
And that's the extent of my life's excitement. I lead a very boring life, but not Neanderthal!
After all, you would have to lead a pretty stellar action packed life to look like Popeye
Also, I wish I was in Los Angeles! Because mummies are always cool, especially with CT scans ^_^
