Evangelion 1.01: You Are (Not) Going To See This

I was really excited. I finally got Evangelion 1.01: You Are (Not) Alone on Netflix today so we could have a whole night of geeking out (complete with the original Japanese dialogue) to weird Angels trying to attack Earth and a schoolboy crushing on a weirdo albino girl with oversized eyeballs who (from what I remember) is actually a clone of his mom…?

But SOMEONE decided that Wednesday night at 8:00pm was a brilliant time to do work, because somehow s/he roped B into a lengthy conference call about website bugs, Internet Explorer and fixing links. I have a sneaking suspicion that this person is just a lonely lady, because the conversation (at least, the side that I can hear) is also about drinking coffee, B’s heritage and polite laughter.

HEY LADY. CAN THIS WAIT? YOU’RE RUINING MY NERD NIGHT. I WANT SOME MECHA BATTLES MIXED WITH HIGH SCHOOL SEXUAL TENSION AND THE BIBLICAL APOCALYPSE.

Waaah.
