San Diego Comic Con, Part 2 – Friday Shenanigans

I’ve been struggling to figure out how best to showcase my Comic Con shenanigans because I have over a thousand pictures taken over the course of 3 days. I did a post dedicated to the Panels and thought I might do posts dedicated to Costumes, Celebs, Exhibition Floor, etc. but no matter how I worked… Continue reading San Diego Comic Con, Part 2 – Friday Shenanigans

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies – OH MY!

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a nerd in possession of an illness must go on a Jane Austen bender. At least it does for this nerd. For someone who fancies themselves a writer (or an aspiring one at least) I don’t write nearly enough about books. Which is strange considering the rate in… Continue reading Pride and Prejudice and Zombies – OH MY!

Best Nerdy Cakes Ever

Honestly. Honestly. I… Continue reading 10 Hottest Babes of Sci-Fi

I ain’t afraid of no ghosts!

I know I’ve made a big to-do about how Zombies freak me out and how I’ve had to institute a self-ban of “The Walking Dead” and all that fun, f’d up stuff.  But they really are the only thing that freaks me out (ok, that’s a sort of lie, I’m a little freaked out by… Continue reading I ain’t afraid of no ghosts!

Dear Walking Dead

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1v0uFms68U&fs=1&hl=en_US] Dear AMC’s “The Walking Dead”, We’ve been on a couple of dates now and, frankly, I’m a little concerned about the direction our relationship is heading in.  I knew going in that you weren’t my type but everyone said you were great so I figured I would give you a chance.  I’m just not… Continue reading Dear Walking Dead
