Daily Geek Quotient (or GQ)

Shevi’s Geek Q for today: 122 (not bad)

Activities: On Wednesdays, I'm giving my daughter a course on how to make a graphic novel. Today we worked on layout, and I showed her some options for a sample comics page she's working on. She came up with some very cool ideas, and I think she did a good job.

Ate: I experimented with sushi in a pathetic attempt to recreate Simply Sushi's delicious crunch roll. It was okay, but it wasn't nearly as great as Simply Sushi's rolls. 

Fun level: Okay, although I wish I had more time to play my new Professor Layton game.

Creativity level: High

Brain activity: Pretty high. Teaching is fun, but challenging.

Shevi’s Geek Q for today: 142 (Genius!)

You CAN get happiness in the mail! I ordered Professor Layton and the Last Specter, and it arrived today! 

I've already started playing it, and it's so much geeky fun. I know it's not as great as Professor Layton and the Unwound Future, which is the best video game EVER (anyone with a heart would have to shed a few tears at the end of that game), but who cares? It's still a Professor Layton game with all those wonderful puzzles. 


The only problem is that the battery on the Nintendo DS started dying, and I couldn't find the charger, so I couldn't play more than a few minutes. Of course, that just gives me something to look forward to when the DS is fully charged. I'm so happy, I'm geeking out! Yes!

Bought  Professor Layton and the Last Specter  used from Amazon for $25.47. (I've been drooling over it for months)

Nick and Nora pajamas (no geek factor there), but I'm wearing them with fuzzy magenta Animal slippers. That's Animal with a capital A, as in the drummer from the Muppets. "Eat drums! Eat drums!"

Homemade Gluten-lactose-sugar-free chocolate pancakes, mini latkes with yogurt and unsweetened apple sauce (not much of a geek factor)

So so

Low, although at least I wrote a blog post

My brain has gone for a walk, so I guess it's somewhat active, although goofing off
