For anyone who hasn’t yet seen this piece of brilliance …

Stumble aimlessly amid the trolls and waste, but remember what peace there be in staring at your toes for a couple of weeks. As far as possible without surrender, be on good terms with all readers.

Pop over to Ian’s blog to read the rest of it … it’s not only fabulous and funny, but sometimes also a little too close for comfort. 😉

If you’ve never heard of the desiderata you can see the original here.

geek

My score is 12.82051% (Geekish Tendencies)

I didn’t really expect to be more than somewhat geekish. And just finishing this muthah points to having at least some geekiness. But it’s a good excuse for not getting out of bed on a chilly Sunday morning (and some of the questions are pretty funny).
