I got my new cell phone today. The old one was a piece of crap - the earpiece stopped working and I had to plug in the headset thing, which I could never get to stay on my ear without holding it there. Now I just have to enter all my numbers into the new one.

Something else happened today at the Doublestar Science Fiction Club dinner. A particular guy, with whom I am acquainted, has apparently been creeping out a lot of the girls in the club - following them around, not taking hints, and doing various passive-agressive things and other stuff that could be defined as harassment. One of the deans came to talk to us because, while there were a lot of rumors going around about him and what he'd done and what his status on campus was, there had been few formal complaints, and the faculty wanted to make sure everyone knew how to handle it (I'm quite impressed - at my high school, they weren't nearly that supportive of me when I was having trouble with various people). Now, this guy has never struck me as being particularly sketchy, and one of the other people in the Doublestar club is friends with him. From what I've heard, though, he either has some serious social skill deficiencies or he's a creep, which means he needs either psychological therapy or two-by-four therapy. I really don't know which, and neither does anyone else, which is part of the problem.

Anyhoo, I'd better go. I haven't gotten as much work done today as I planned, and I figure I should do a little thesis writing before I go to bed.

A lot of people wear green on St. Patrick's Day. One friend of mine, who is a Classics major, did something much more interesting - she used face paint (or something) to make swirling Celtic "woad tattoos" on her face. She was very pleased when I recognized what they were.

One of my friends, being a rabid Dr. Who fan, knitted herself a 12-foot-long Dr. Who scarf. There aren't any instructions for it online, as far as I know - she said she just got the pattern from watching the series obsessively. She's offered to make them for other people as long as they pay her the cost of the materials. I plan to get one from her, but mine will be purple and blue and red instead of earth tones. I'll have to go over colors with her.

I have an idea for a new Batman Beyond fanfic, which will have nothing to do with my most recent fic for that story. I probably shouldn't start it until I've finished my Ruse prequel, which I can't really do much of until I've finished my thesis. This story will be a Terry/Dana fic instead of a Terry/Melanie fic, because I think most fic writers don't do good by Dana. They sort of misconcieve her as a bitch, which isn't the case at all. And if this makes no sense to you, don't worry, it's something only a fan of the show would understand.
