The Mighty Geek is traveling again.
Beginning January 5th and ending February 27th GeekMan will be traveling the globe for work. This is both good news and bad news. Good news, because it means that GeekMan will be earning money once again and will soon be able to regal you with new stories of his trivial travel travails and the mightily moronic mediocrity of modern man. Bad news because it also means that updates will be very scarce while GeekMan’s away.
But to some, that is also good news.
Where is GeekMan going, you ask? To foreign lands, I answer with pomposity. GeekMan will be traveling to such wondrous and exotic locals as Barcelona, Shanghai and even Orlando. There is talk of Canada, California and even the fair shores of Hawaii in his future. GeekMan is rather proud to say that GeekMan is going to all of these places for work, and thus will not be paying a frickin dime other than on the purchase of food or gifts for loved ones.
In case you’re wondering, you are not a ‘loved one’ and will receive no gifts. Yes, I’m talking to you.
GeekMan knows how wondrous and exciting this whole itinerary may sound to the uninitiated, but trust us when we tell you that GeekMan is not the least bit excited. For GeekMan knows in his tiny, cold, black and stone-hard heart that GeekMan will most likely see nothing more than the airport and his hotel room while in any of the various cities he may find himself. Unlike normal people, when GeekMan is working GeekMan gets no days off, no hour long lunch breaks and no weekends to do touristy things.
GeekMan doesn’t even get bathroom breaks.
GeekMan knows that he’ll be working 18 to 20 hour days and wishing for nothing more than a quick nap or a sharp object with which to slit his wrists by the end of the day. GeekMan will have no time for viewing the city, shopping or taking in the sights.
Pity the GeekMan, he is a slave.
To recap, GeekMan will be traveling the globe for the next two months. During this time updates to GeekMan’s site will be slow, short and possible few and far between. Hopefully, they will still be funny enough to keep your interest. In the meantime, there is only one thing left to say…
I’m going to China and Spain! WAAAA-HOOOOO!!!
Noooooooo! You can’t go.
Wait, I’m not in control of you. All right, fine, go and have fun on your little “around the world” trip. Miss my birthday, see if I care.
Have fun, be safe and hurry back!
If GeekMan doesn’t stop frickin’ yapping and email me, GeekMan won’t be getting his money.
canada you say…
Luckily, I know that when you say “you”, you don’t mean “me”. So the comfort of awaiting your gifts will somewhat assuage the pain I will feel in your absence.
Noooo….
You Can’t Leave for…
“Geekman, I am you father!”
I envy your trip to Spain. It’s beautiful! If you see nothing of Spain, you must experience the food. Get out for dinner and go to a local eatery. Plan on 2 hours at least. Believe me, it will be well worth it! You won’t have a meal like it ever again (until you and HoBiscuit return).
Can’t you swing by Tuscany while you’re out that way?
February 27th is my birthday. And it’s the day you’re coming back on.
I know you didn’t mean me, so I want some real lava from Hawaii and one of those guys who plays the guitar at your table from Barcelona and from Canada, I’ll take Sarah.
Thanks!
