...brings back memories.
I wore a lilac for about 5 hours, but unfortunately it's really hot where I am and it wilted quickly.

How, indeed, O Boarders!
Today is verily the geeky triple-threat:- The Glorious 25th of May (Truth! Justice! Reasonably-Priced Love! And a Hard-Boiled Egg!)
- The anniversary of the release of A New Hope in 1977
- The date the earth was destroyed in H2G2
How are you celebrating your Geek Pride Day?

If I had a lilac towel, I'd get it printed with a picture of a Star Destroyer and hang it out of my window.
Unfortunately I do not, and therefore must be content with my imagination :P
(PS. Maybe the Vogon Constructor Fleet was what Camping was really thinking of when he predicted the end-times in 2011...) -

I shall celebrate by...
Staying indoors and hiding from the thunderstorm. Lame. >.
The real lilacs didn't last long enough here, either, even if I wouldn't get soaked going after one, but at least I have a lilac-printed box of tissue to gaze fondly at in remembrance. And I know exactly where my towel is.

It's a geek holiday, and I'm spending it on a teleconference with a copyright lawyer that I've been in contact with about trying to get the rights to set some Federico Garcia Lorca. Yay me. *waves flag disinterestedly*
Fortunately, though, it shouldn't be that long. So hopefully, I'll celebrate it by slacking off and doing nothing. -

I think I had to recite one of his poems in Spanish class in High School, the Canción del jinete.

If I can find a lilac bush that's still in bloom, I shall don lilac. The US East Coast is a few months off Ankh Morpork calendar, apparently...

I would wear the lilac today, but unfortunately, I work at a restaurant. I'll wear it mentally, though.
