The Nerdiest Day Ever

So, I began yesterday by calling in sick to work... I was really sleepy and sluggish, and feeling a bit worn down, but I felt like I had to do my best to get out of the house, so I saw Star Wars Episode 3 - Revenge of the Sith. Laetitia and I caught the 8am showing, where there were only 2 other people in the theater other than ourselves. I liked pointing out that I was the only one there with a girlfriend. This movie really did makeup for the first 2, and I have the closure I needed to return to my normal life, with no other sequels hanging over my head.
After that nerdy experience, Laetitia and I went to E3, the video gaming convention in LA, to meet her friend Pam, that works for a publisher exhibiting there. Now THAT was a nerd-fest. It was chaos and noise. I didn't know where to look, with all the big screens and game systems everywhere we looked. I got a couple of freebies from the booths, but the best part was really getting out of their and catching up with Pam in Little Tokyo afterward. I guess I can get back to my "normal" life again
