Love you!
:-)
And I'm with you on the ants. *shudder* Anything that moves that fast should be avoided at all cost.
I'd think that it's pretty funny to hear a non-Southerner (Dr McCoy was a Southerner after all) say "damn it Jim" in a hybrid Chinese-Hispanic accent.
"Five films you love: Lord of the Rings
Memento; The Matrix; Contact; All Great flix, but what the heck is "Shaun of the Dead"?
You mention "The lights before a migraine"? Methinks it is time for you to divest yourself of Migraine. It is not a permanent condition as once believed, and can be somewhat prevented nowadays. Granted, working in an office under fluorescent lights is completely OUT.
Certain foods must be avoided, and certain people can bring them on, so they must also be avoided. My triggers are parents and uncles. I couldn't stay in the dark for the rest of my life.

Shaun of the Dead is a hilarious movie about two British slackers/losers, one of which has a dead-end job and a girlfriend who is about to break up with him. Then zombies take over London. And he has to figure out how to rescue his girlfriend and win her heart back while sort of leading a band of losers from being eaten by zombies. Think of it like Clerks with zombies.
I actually only have gotten migraines very rarely. In my case I know the exact trigger. MSG triggers migraines in me, so I simply no longer eat instant noodles which have loads of MSG in them.
