OH! It's A Tiara! Put It On Me! Put It On Me!

There are two camps with which you can belong.  There's Camp I Love It and Camp Laugh Tracks Are Soooooo 80s.  Well, dear friends, I don't know art, but I know what I like.  What I like to do is laugh and The Big Bang Theory makes me laugh each and every week. 

The story lines can be ridiculous and the laugh tracks are old school, yes.  However, I have listened to AND been involved in some of the types of conversations that the core group have had.  Something about each and every character reminds me of people that I love.  HELL!  Penny's apartment might as well be mine with all of that IKEA crap she has in there.  Also, with all of the dark, sinister and hardcore dramas that I watch it is nice to turn off my brain for 24 minutes a week just to be entertained, go back to a simpler time and just freakin' laugh. 

Moscow Mule! Moscow Mule!

So far I've shared shirts that I purchased with my own hard-earned mean green, received as gifts and have received on race days. Tonight, my darling dears, I am featuring a homemade shirt that was created by two of the coolest people I know! 

The specifics of our day at the EPCOT Food & Wine festival will remain a mystery since we all know that what happens at EPCOT stays at EPCOT. But what I can say is that fruity beers are refreshing when it's surface of the sun hot, grassy knolls are fantastic places to chill and Mongolian beef on a steamed bun is the best thing that I've put in my mouth in ages.   

A heartfelt DANKE to Papi's parents for an amazing time and never stop #lookingforattention #andfoodandwine. 

Shiny!

How in the 'verse did I neglect to post about my recent milestone of running (well mostly walking) in my very first 10K?!?!?!?  

The weekend was filled with fun, fantastic friends, frivolity & even foot (f)massages!  Oh!  The "f" was silent on that one. ::looks around hoping that someone, anyone thinks that's funny::

Anyhooooooo, since it was suggested that I run powered by Serenity I went with one of my faves...that is now destroyed thanks to safety pins...and without the aid of this T coupled with support of my sister from another mister I wouldn't have finished at all OR would have placed last. GASP!

What I Do I Do Because I Like To Do

Don't let the cuddly exterior fool you.  I'm not all rainbows & unicorns filled with happy snappy thoughts.  I have a dark side.   This dark side enjoys TV shows & movies about serial killers, heavy metal & boy oh boy can I be sarcastic!  I can even hurt with my words. Mmaawwaahhhaaaa!

This past week I was lucky enough to have experienced the dark side of Universal at Halloween Horror Nights & was doubly lucky to have one of my oldest & favorite shirts "reimagined" by one of the coolest chicks I know. (Sadly, I never got a pic of it w/o the halter toppy goodness being hidden by my obnoxious plaid shirt.)

Anyway, a favorite book and movie of mine is "A Clockwork Orange".  It's pure brilliance and super dark. I could go into it more...which I probably should...but I'm tired & experiencing a little writers block action tonight. Sorry. I fail. 

#ADDICT

In the wee morning hours I will be heading due south with my little furry companion for a weekend of pure unadulterated fun.  The timing could not be better!

Needless to say, I am not on of those sick & twisted "morning people".  Far from it!  Without a doubt I'll set 5 different alarms and will need mass quantities of my favorite beverage to wake me up and keep me going.    Viva la TEAM CAFFEINE!

Ice Cream Makes Me Happy

I've cream also gives me brain freeze and makes my ass look fat in these jeans.   Regardless, it's delicious and should be consumed on a semi-regular basis.   While I do prefer my ice creamy goodness in milkshake form, I've yet to meet a cone it cup that I haven't liked.   

If It's Illegal To Rock-N-Roll Then Throw My Ass In Jail

First I went to the hall of fame.  Next I ran in the 10K.   Do I rock?  You best believe I do!

But Why Is The Rum Gone?

Overslept. Learned that a closed door means nothing.  Had to deal with parents who let their children run amok. Was given hell by multiple parties until I was close to snapping.  

Yeah...soooo...not the greatest day.  

If it wasn't for a weirdo sense of humor, great friends and a frosty adult beverage tonight I would completely lose my mind. Argh. 

Whoopseedoodle!

Yeah...soooooooo...I managed to go away for a weekend of running and NYCC and I totally neglected to take pics of me in the various graphic Ts that I brought along especially for the trip.  

I hang my head in shame.  

Regular programming will return shortly. 

I'm Not Insane! My Mother Had Me Tested.

Over the years I have gravitated towards some very hardcore & disturbing TV dramas.  However, with life being as serious as it is, sometimes you have to take time out to laugh. 

Recently, I've grown fond of the new show "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" and I've mentioned my love of "Archer".  What I haven't mentioned before is that I do find "The Big Bang Theory" to be amusing.   I know that there are haters out there & quite a few are dear friends of mine.  While I can see their collective point, the show makes me giggle & the cast reminds me of friends that I've had through the years.  

My sister from another mister gave me the shirt that I'm wearing this afternoon as I get ready for a weekend of fun, frivolity and a freakin' 10K.  It's comfy, it's cozy, and reminds me of good friends & good times  

Wow, Sarcasm. That's Original.

It's late. I'm tired. I'll just cut to the chase and say that I freakin' adore Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog.  At this point I'm not even sure how many times I've seen it and I still laugh at the same parts and even tear up during a pivotal scene. Yeah. I'm a nerd. I know.  

I'm also rocking some Leia-esque buns tonight so there!  A (wo)man's gotta do what (wo)man's gotta do. 

All Hail Josh Eden!

As I sifted through a box of shirts yet to be worn and written about I found four...count 'em FOUR...that I wouldn't mind wearing on Rock-N-Roll 10K day instead of my usual Cinderella's castle T. 

Since it's also NYCC weekend I figured I'd need it up a bit!

I'm not sure why I'm doing this, but I will post the possibilities here and take your advice as to which I should wear come race day.  The fate of my finishing time and race day photos are in your hands. 

Also, apparently I AM a bigger Joss fan than I thought because three of the four options are homages to his works. The rocket ship is fun and just ironic because my big ol booty keeps me from running fast. 

Thanks and be kind. 

Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I Love Ya! Tomorrow!

Soooooooo next weekend I'll be in NYC for Comic Con, the Rock-N-Roll 10K AND the ROC (Ridiculous Obstacle Race).  Natch, I intend to wear a few of my fave nerd shirts.  Methinks that tomorrow I'll pick out a few of my faves ask for your help. Sound good?  

BLASTER?!?!? But I Barely Know Her!

Well. Well. Well. What do we have here?  It's all the pieces and parts of a blaster.  DUH!

Fun Fact: The little Chihuahua who shares my domicile is named after a beloved Star Wars character.  

Exterminate! Exterminate!

I admit it!  I did succumb to peer pressure.  After years of hearing about how amazing Doctor Who was, I did pick it up with the 9th Doctor. 

Sadly, I liked the 9th so damn much that I could never warm up to the 10th.  Also, all of the talk of Torchwood intrigued me to the point where I picked that show up and MAN ALIVE was it good!   It was considerably more entertaining, adult, interesting and sexy as hell.  Needless to say, for those two reasons I found it difficult to go back and I quit watching the show altogether. 

I do realize that there have been other Doctors since then, BUT, as "they" say...you never forget your first Doctor.
