Yay ita!
I'm so relieved. And not a little chilly.
The test was by no means easy. The healthy people (whose numbers dwindled as we went along) found it killer. I...I have no idea how I made it through it, but the people and the nerve block.
It wasn't a charity pass. Almost all the techniques were not as good as I can normally do them (and I'm trying not to obsess over my lack of perfection). It wasn't a great pass, but it was a pass, and that was a lot more than I was expecting. More than I could hope for--I was just elated for the chance.
Thanks, guys!
Dead now.

Woudldn't they be more likely to say 'square'? Or is there not much overlap in the dork/square Venn diagram?
Congratulations ita!
I think I might need to see a podiatrist soon. Gr.
From wordorigins.org:
Dork
Popular etymology would have it that this American slang term comes from a term meaning a whale's penis. That is half right.
The term did originally mean a penis, but human not cetacean. This slang sense dates to at least 1961 and is probably a variant on dick or dirk (another name sometimes used to personalize the phallus). The sense meaning a stupid or obnoxious person follows a few years later, 1967.
