I've been entertaining myself today by reading Wil Wheaton's blog pages. Yep, that's Wil Wheaton, who played Wesley Crusher, the Star Trek character we all loved to hate. I gotta say, I had a pretty negative impression of Wheaton after seeing him on the Star Trek version of The Weakest Link. He did say afterwards that he was trying to be funny, or self-parodying, or something, by playing up to the snottiness level set by the host of the show, but, frankly, he just came across as a major asshole. Turns out he's not, though. He's a really cool guy (as well as being just as big a geek as I am), and he keeps a pretty interesting blog. For some reason, I find that this realization has actually helped to cheer my up. I'm even looking forward to seeing him in the new TNG movie. (He's got a cameo part as Wesley.)
Also helping to cheer me up today was a co-worker's brilliant suggestion that I go out and get chocolate milkshakes and bring them back to the office. That helped improve everybody's day, I think. But then, I've always been of the firm opinion that there are few personal problems that cannot be effectively treated with chocolate.
