Adam and I saw Avengers again tonight, him for the second time, me for the third. It was in 3-D, which means I am now intimately familiar with every freckle on Robert Downey Jr’s face. Which is totally okay. Also, Adam murmured “Science Brooooos” to himself whenever Banner and Stark were onscreen together.
Science brooooooos

- Me: the main stuff I want for my birthday are fancy bath towels and a nice weekend duffel bag
- Me: am I...am I an adult?
- Adam: lol
- Adam: no you aren't an adult until you want an accountant for your birthday
- Adam: that is the rule
-
- Me: oh man, I miss the silence of Anne's house
- Adam: haha I can imagine
- Adam: silence other than the yapping dogs of course
- Me: they were actually largely quiet
- Me: much quieter than my father, anyway
- Adam: well yes
- Adam: so are most nuclear detonations
-
- Adam: I just bought a Kindle book purely because of a facebook ad.
- Me: nice!
- Adam: But the facebook ad said "Do you like Stargate? Then you will probably like this book."
- Adam: Well played, ad.

Today is the day this weird dude was born. Since then, he’s been running about, making the world a better, nerdier place. He will not be stopped, so you’d best just wish him well. Happy birthday!

- me: ok, these are not lakes that are exploding all of the time
- Kelly: "The gaseous chemical composition of exploding lakes is unique to each lake; in Lake Kivu's case, methane and carbon dioxide due to lake water interaction with a volcano."
- they are doing something that can be defined as "explosive" and that is a scary thing
- me: hahaha
- Kelly: these are going on the list
- right under "solar flares"
- and "coronal mass emissions--SCARIER SOLAR FLARES"
- me: lol
- don't forget supervolcanoes
- Kelly: gah
- nature is terrifying
- me: yellowstone could like, blow up the whole continent
- Kelly: arrrrrgh
- me: don't worry, it only happens like once every ten thousand years
- not that we have any idea when the last time it happened was
- Kelly: I HATE YOU
- me: :D
