Whereas Memorial Day is marked by a certain degree of sadness, Veterans Day is about celebration. It’s about giving thanks to those among us who have answered the calling to serve their country. I often… Continue reading For Veterans Day 11-11-11

Remembering the Great Bird of the Galaxy… (I miss you, Gene Roddenberry)
October is a bittersweet month for me. On one hand, there’s Halloween and all of the fun festivities that the holiday entails. But October is the month when several of my loved ones have passed away so there’s also a lot of sadness. Even though I never met him personally, the one anniversary of someone unrelated… Continue reading Remembering the Great Bird of the Galaxy… (I miss you, Gene Roddenberry)
Hello Sweetie! 25 Take Aways from Doctor Who
If you follow the facebook page then you know that I’ve been more than a little obsessed with Doctor Who lately. I tend to do that. Get obsessed with something and then turn around and get obsessed with something else. Thankfully I have AMAZING taste in obsessions. Two months ago I was a Doctor Who… Continue reading Hello Sweetie! 25 Take Aways from Doctor Who
Flight Training with the Starship Enterprise
If you read the blog you know that I come from a military family. This came to me from a family member who was in the military.

It’s hard to believe that it has been exactly one year since I embarked on this nerdy venture! I didn’t think it would go beyond my friends and family but the blog now has fans all over the world.

Going apeshit for Rise of the Planet of the Apes
I’m officially based out of San Diego now and Saturday morning I started the daunting task of unpacking everything I own. Which is a lot of crap. Ugh. But it’s awesome crap that I’m not willing to throw or give away so whatever. Thanks to my OCD and my constant pursuit of organizational perfection, it… Continue reading Going apeshit for Rise of the Planet of the Apes
Guest Review! Cowboys & Aliens!
As y’all know (I may have mentioned it once or thrice) I’m in the process of moving to San Diego and my life is in limbo while I finish up my work in Los Angeles.

Captain America: The First Avenger of Awesome
As many of you know, this past weekend I spent my time doing my big move from Los Angeles to San Diego. Between the packing of the U-haul and the wiping of the brow from all the heavy lifting, I didn’t have time to get to the theater to catch the last of the summer… Continue reading Captain America: The First Avenger of Awesome
The Sky is Falling! The Sky is Falling!
Ugh. I’m home sick today. No bueno. I took the day off from work and was going to take the day off from blogging (especially since no nerdy movies came out this past weekend) but after catching up on Falling Skies and being asked my thoughts about it…well…it seems I just can’t quit you. Not… Continue reading The Sky is Falling! The Sky is Falling!
