Wow, it's 10 am and I am just exhausted, probably has to do with the fact that I've been watching Gunnar, the majority of the morning today, while Danielle is at a meeting, and Gunnar had a crying fit before he zonked out.

But I had a really awesome day, yesterday. So, Danielle and I didn't go to the 12 Step conference that was being held here in Charleston, so we did the next best thing, we went and got pedicures (I'm now sport Candy Apple Green colored toenails). After that was then went and saw Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World, and by God was it awesome (srsly, my fellow nerds, go and see it) and Danielle loved it as well. After the movie, we then came home, had dinner with Dad and watched the Fountainhead. I know it's classic, but it is an unintenionally a hilarious movie, even my parents were MST3King it, and I was entertained by it in that form, until the trial scene when Gary Cooper becomes the mouth piece for Ayn Rand's Objectivist Manifesto.

Recently finished the 20 Things series for the characters of Inception, I just need to bundle them up, currently working on a pompt for inception_kink, which is a history of Saito's mistresses, and also working on the outlines for my long fic "My Dreams Lay at Your Feet."

Also found a person that I can share a room with at Dragon*Con.

No I'm not dead. But sadly, my computer, Astrid, who had been faithful to me since I was only 15, sojourned to that undiscovered country, in June of this year. So that's why I have been absent, to which I apologize. But in recent news, I saw Inception (well last week was the first time I saw it, and I watched it for the second time this afternoon), and by God it amazing, but those of you who have already seen it already know this, because you've seen (or maybe not). I'm totally now a Ken Watanabi fangirl because of this movie, I even stayed up Friday night to watch Letters From Iwo Jima.

I've also just finished a fic set within the Inception verse.

Hi there everyone! Lots been happening this week, bought some comics, and I read and review them (put the reviews up on here on a Wednesday), and my parents and I went to see Brandi Carlile in concert at the Music Farm. And it was awesome, the crowning music of awesome was when she and her band played a set for The Story and everyone in the place, including myself, said along with it. Also one of the songs, I think it's "Whatever Happen to My Dreams", gave me an idea for a story, dream detectives who are rapidly starting to lose their ability to tell the difference between dreams and reality.

It's that time of the year again! The time of the year when all of the Twilight fans begin to come out of the woodwork and we lovers of actual literature are assumed to fans of it by bookstore employees when we check out with our purchase of a copy of Dracula.So today, read this post as a "PSA" of sort to all of those impressionable Twilight fans out, that it 's good that this series has sparked your interest in vampires, but this is just to let you know that Edward Cullen is not the ultimate vampire, he comes from a long (and possibly delueded) line of iconic vampires. So with out further ado, I present the Top 11 Vampires that are Cooler than Edward Cullen and Could Kick his Ass.

( Why 11? Cause we need that number to wash the taste of Twilight out of our mouths )

Hello there and happy TGIF! In the past weeks, as well as this week and not including working at MickyD's, I have recently registered for DragonCon, received a new assessment on for my Aspie's (as well as any other disorders I have), and finished reading the book Palimpest by Catheryne M. Valentine. And here are my thoughts on it...

( If Tales of the City had bee manikin boyfriends, rivers of milk, and trains that talked )
This also leads into the whole idea of series or stories that are slowburns. For those that need a catchup, a slowburn is when a series (or story) that seems slow or takes awhile for the audience to get invested in it, so that in the worst case scenerios most of the audience exits out of watching it. But for those who hang in there and stick it out, you are rewarded. And with this I present my list of the Top 11 Slowburns.

( Why 11? Cause I've been hanging at ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.Com way too much )

Seriously, I need rest as much as can, cause I've got work tomorrow (on a Saturday!) and have to come in at 6 in the morning.

Watched Fringe last night and good was it awesome. Although I'm wondering how the producers and writers are going to do season 3, with...

( Spoilers )

Got news from felinaofl2 that she and a fellow friend went and saw Iron Man 2, and once again they enjoyed it. With the wake of Iron Man 2 and the developments of Captain America, Thor, and the upcoming Avengers movie, Marvel is now optioning several lesser known titles which may have an Occum's Razor to it. One side: gives more depth to the Marvel universe that the movies are trying to build, the other: they will just bomb and end up in the DVD Dollar Bin you in the supermarkets. ( It will probably happen when Hell freezes over )
That's all I've go for now

Hi, figured I'd start this week's series of posts with my reactions and review of this season's finale of House. Warning! If you have not seen tonight's House, or the rest of this season of House, so if you are reading this, go and play catch up, or turn back now.

( End of this chapter )

Just got home a couple hours ago from watching Iron Man 2, and I have to say it was awesome.

( Spoilers Ahoy! )

And in other news for the past week, I've been on a Power Rangers kick

( It's Morphin' Time! )

And in my reallife, I've completed my finals this week and this college semester is over and I got hired on the spot at McDonalds. Yes, those of you can boo-hiss me for going to work at McDonalds, but at least it will be a paycheck, which is what I really need in this economy, and the highups their seem to be really nice.

And now to leave evidence that I am a complete and total dork:

Just as well, that in the Subject line has been going on, as well as other stuff.

1. Working on The Fairy Hunters Club, as well as getting started on Grimm.

2. Almost done watching Carnival, unfortunately Danielle watched the episode "Lincoln Hwy, UT" with me yesterday and get turned off by the whole series because of it. Well, her loss.

3. Still making my way through Eye of the World.

4. Also been reading the Neon Genesis Evangelion fanfic "Nobody Dies" by Greg Landsmann. Seriously for anyone who is an Evagelion fan, read this it is awesome. It centers around the idea of "what if Yui Ikari didn't die in the Contact Experiment" and goes from there and it is just pure good awesome.

5. Watched Fringe last night. And God was it wonderful.

6. Oh! And this just in, from Geek Tyrant: Stephen King's The Dark Tower Film is moving forward with Ron Howard and Brian Grazer! ZOMGs! I think I just came!

Sorry to be away so long like this, going to try and get into a regular habit, instead of being sporatic. Anyways, on with the post:

1. Gunnar arrived! On Friday! Yeah, sorry to report my brother's birth this late, but better late than never. He was born at 4:20pm, Danielle wanted to give birth to him naturally, but him being 10 lbs. 6 oncs. and 21", she had to get a C-section. But both of them are home now, and doing well, and he is just unbelievably cute. Will have to figure out how to get the pictures my dad sent me posted up on here.

2. Saw Clash of the Titans on Saturday with Rocky and it was the most unintentional funny film ever! I'm a mythology buff, and it just peeved me off how they just CliffNotes a huge chunk of it: Perseus was the son of Zeus and Daene, because her dad heard a prophecy that his grandson was going to kill him, also the Pegasus is the son of Medusa and Poisidon, and the Krakan wasn't had from the flesh of Hades. So fail in the research department there, also the effects weren't that great. But they scored with Medusa, cause I like that they got her origin right, and they came up with a pretty cool look for her. Also I liked was Liam Neeson, Raph Finnes, and Mads Mikleson (yeah I still can't spell for the life me), and my theory is that they knew what they were getting into and decided to ham it up and enjoy themselves. Oh! And Polly Walker from Caprica shows up for 15 minutes. Damn, I wish it was October already. Pretty much the first half of the movie was boring, and towards the end, Rocky and I just started riffing on it, right there in the theater, which made it more enjoyable. Now we can't wait till it comes out on DVD so that we can do our own Rifftraxs for it with the rest of our friends.

3. Just watched the Season 2 finale of the Joker Blogs. Can be found here http://www.thejokerblogs.com/ , seriously watch it, it is the awesomesauce. And see if you can count how many references to the comics you can find in the video, I counted 25.

4. Finished reading Lonely Werewolf Girl by Martin Millar and Sorcery and Cecelia by Patricia Wrede and Caroline Stevermer. I liked Lonely Werewolf Girl cause despite how long it was, it's actually an easy read, and I've heard from some people that they believe it's like Twilight but with werewolves, but I think that it was intentionally rough in the beginning and the chapters were so short because it mirrors Kalix's state of anixety. But what makes it very unlike Twilight is that the characters are not one dementional, most of them are not likable, but you simpathize with them when you begin to learn all the reasons for their actions, and Millar allows the reader to get to know them, instead of have the characters just info dump when it's needed. Plus there are just lists of Crowning Moments of Awesome for almost every character, and know I can't wait for the next installment to come out as well.

Sorcery and Cecelia was a surprisingly enjoyable book. It first started off as a chore, mainly cause I was just interested in the cover and wanted to know what it was about and also at the time that I started reading it, I hadn't been exposed that much to the works and style of Jane Austen, which now after reading it I have a new apprication for the style and work, which I'm actually looking forward to reading more of, and the fact that it was blended with the fantasy genre also helps. The story also emulates alot of Austen's writings in story structure, that things are set up very early on and seemingly have nothing to do with the story and ties all together at the very end, as well as themes: the position of women in society at the time, apperances and social mores, and missunderstanding, it altogether feels like a story Jane Austen could have wrote and Wrede and Stevemer succeed.

Currently continuing to read Wheel of Time: Eye of the World by Robert Jordan and just started reading Alcrataz and the Evil Librarians by Brian Sanderson.

5. Currently on season 2 of Jericho

Was on io9 this morning, and found this article that was posted last night: http://io9.com/5501171/best+dressed-disney-villain-might-have-a-movie-deal-with-tim-burton

Honestly, after enjoying Alice in Wonderland this past weekend (and I will post my review of it on Saturday), I am looking forward to this bit of news. The idea of a live action movie about Maleficent is starting to sound pretty awesome. And it may be directed by Tim Burton!

Who's going to play Maleficent? If Tim Burton is going to direct it, there is a high chance that he could cast his wife Helena Bonham-Carter in the role. And alot of people on the comments have suggested different actresses: Tilda Swinton, Sarah Jessica Parker, Lady Gaga, but as one person suggested Meryl Streep, and just thinking about, I could so see that. Then again you could cast Meryl Streep as Batman and it would still be a good choice...Oh God, that just gave me aload of fanfic ideas.

Happy Friday! Thank God the first week post Springbreak is over.

1. Finished reading The Bell at Sealy Head by Patricia A. McKillip. I've trying to get through this book for almost a whole year, and I like the whole aesthic of it, magic set in a historical regency period (which while I'm saying that, I know I very need to read Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrel) and it had a pretty interesting cast of characters, and there is a pleasant revelation at the very end about the relationship between two of characters that I didn't expect. It was good, but I think I would have liked it better if I read it in a shorter time period, I have to read it again in 2 years or so to see if the experence would be any different.

2. Currently reading Palimpsest by Catherynne M. Valentine. So far, pretty good.

3. An idea popped into my head this morning while I was reading the first volume of Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles. The Fairie Hunters Club.

4. Began discussion of Kant in philosophy and Stephen Crane in American literature.

5. Tonight at Anime Association, we watched Black Butler and Maria-Holic.

Hi there and good morning!

1. Watched the Oscars last night, mad that I didn't get to see Christopher Waltz accept the award for Best Supporting Actor for Inglourious Basterds. Awesome that Catherine Bigalow won for Hurt Locker, but I would have liked it if Star Trek or Up had won Best Picture. Awesome that Roger Corman get an honorary award for his legacy of films. Biggest negative scoring for this year, and showing how out of touch the Academy Awards is, they had two of the stars of Twatlight present the montage honoring the horror genre, Twatlight is not horror.

2. Finished reading Corydon and the Island of Monsters by Tobias Druitt. It was an enjoyable and quick that was also pretty interesting. It retells canon Greek mythology from the prespective of the monsters from the myths, and has a well thought out overarching plot, which I'm glad that there are 2 seuqels to it that are in print and cannot wait to read them.

3. MAking my way through the first book of the Wheel of Time series.

4. Watching Jericho and halfway through the 1st season, and really enjoying it.

5. Watched this week's episode of Caprica with Rocky on Saturday, not as awesome as last week's episode but still pretty good. We gave Verguis (wow, I completely missed that he played Stinger in the Pegasus Arc) the nickname Sephiroth, cause of the speech he gives Daniel when he's showing him his tattoos.

6. Same day, we went with my parents to a neighborhood oyster roast, and afterwards, around 7:30, we came home to where the Best of SNL with Cheri Oteri and the first half of Dr. Strangelove.

Sorry I've been dead the last month, just life and everything.

-Wrote the first script of n.Fiction and recieved alot of great feedback from friends and family, and I've even found a friend who would be more than happy to be our editor. If anyone's got some ideas which pieces of literature the characters should visit, feel free to comment below.

-Read Angela Carter's The Bloody Chamber and Heroes and Villians.

-Currently reading, though slowly, the first book in the Wheel of Time series.

-Been really enjoying Caprica. Lacey, Zoe, and Tamara are the trinity of female awesomeness, and just love Sam Adama.

-Here is the X-Men chapter of my Marvel: Next fic series, kinda sets up everything from Scott's psychological perspective, and so with out any further adue:

( When hope turns into delusion )

Hi everyone, it's snowing here in Charleston, SC. Me and my family, of transpants, we were holing up in the house, but my dad just headed out to go Downtown and take pictures of the snow on everything, and as I type, my stepmom is watching the opening of the Winter Olympics. So here's what been going on with me the last couple of weeks:

1. Been getting on in my classes, took my first exam in Philosophy.

2. Been reading The Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter.

3. As well as continuing read The Yiddish Policemen's Union.

4. Started reading the first book in the Wheel of Time series.

5. I am going to be collaborating with a classmate from my American Lit. class, Victoria, on a project called n.Fiction. It's about a highschool literature discussion group, who are in the library during a blackout, and find themselves traveling through the different worlds of literature to try and find their way back home.

6. Rocky got to the series finale of BSG, and it was satisfying to see the extended version, and the guys agreed with me that Lee's idea to get rid of technology was a bad idea.

7. In BSG news, I have seen the 2 latest episodes of Caprica, post-pilot, and so far, I'll throughly enjoying them.

8. Watched the Superbowl at Rocky's, it was his mom's Superbowl party. Had a really good time, thought the Who were epic, and had fun cheering on the Saints. Man, I know alot of people who sad that they put money on the Colts to win.

That's all for now.

Hai there!Let's lots going on. 2 weeks into the Spring semester of college, had to take out a student loan.

1. Got the collected trade of the first volume of the Unwritten by Bill Willingham. Still need to sit down and read it.

2. Finished reading Steward of Song by Adam Stemple (22/500). Yeah, I'll to give reviews of all the books I've finished reading so far but not right now.

3. Danielle's parents are in town for the weekend and with that I'm religated to sleeping on the couch.

4. Idea #5: The Advents, starting off in future where a catostrotic events has taken place , a group of scienists and military personal travel back in time to prevent the event or atleast marginalize it. They arrive hundreds of years off course and their method of time traveling is damaged. They create a genetic marker, placed into the test subjects, and what will happen when the group dies, everything that makes them who they are (memories and personality) will be transfered into any person who carries this genetic marker. Would desect the ethics of time travel and the ability to "transfered" into the carriers of the genetic markers.

5. Finally saw Monsters Vs. Aliens and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs (i was genuinely surprised that i enjoyed Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs).

6. Read a short story by Theodora Goss, entitled The Mad Scienist's Daughter, which can be found at Strange Horzions (?), and it's kinda like League of Extraordinrary Gentlemen (the comic, not the movie), but it's a sorta club/support group for characters like Frankenstien's daughter, the daughters of Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and it's smart and cute.

7. Read Skydoll, which I was surprised that I found it in the Charleston Public County Library.

Hey, sorry for being late. Things have taken a turn for the crappy to quote Pearl Foster. Turns out I didn't have the Financial Aid money to pay for semester, am begging the college's Department of Housing to let me out of the contract that I signed to live on campus, had to cut my course load down to 2 classes, had to take out a student loan to pay for them, and if the Department doesn't let me out of my contract, I have to drop out completely for the Spring semester. Anywho, enough of the road to insanity, via college financial red tape, lets move on to some good shit that's been happening.

1. Watched Superman/Batman: Public Enimies, overall entertaining, but I really wish it came with a sample of brain bleach, just so that I can get the image of Lex Luthor forcing his tongue down Amanda Waller.

2. Saw AVATAR on Sunday, and wow. The extra cash for the 3D glasses and the 3 hours were worth it, even Rocky was surprised he liked it, and he went in originally thinking that it was going to be Fern Gully on adreniline. And during the last 4th of the film, when there's the big battle, Rocky is part Blackfoot indian, he's whispering: "Suck it White Devil!". So, I'm looking for some good AVATAR fanfiction now.

3. Advanced a couple of chapters in One Piece and Negima.

4. IDEA #2: The Advents
Summary: Alien apocolypse it the distant future forces a group of scienists and army personal to travel back in time to advert the evert from happening. They end up hundreds of years before the event happens, and the vehical they used to travel through time has been damaged and they can't correct their mistake. Instead they use the resources there to create a genetic marker, placing it in test subjects, that to complete their mission, should they die, everything that makes them who they are will be transfered into anyone with that genetic marker. Would deal with the ethics of time traveling, genetic manipulation, and what makes a person who they are on an internal level.

5. IDEA #3: The Wastelands
Summary: Lord of the Rings, meets Stephen King's the Stand, and mixing in a bit of Lovecraft, with the plot of the Secret of NIMH modified.

6. Rick Rordan is putting out a new series geared around Egyptian mythology. Sounds cool, I hope it's in the Percy Jackson universe.

7. Kitty Pryde is coming back! WOOTERZ!

That's all I got for now.

Happy Friday! What I'm to post, I've had in my backfiles for about a year, inspired by the Marvel direct to DVD animated feature, Next Avengers, and dispite the fact that it was a Milage May Vary, i was entertained by it and it gave me a case of the plotbunnies, wondering: what about the other heroes? What about their families? No way Ultron could have taken over that easily, and Hawkeye can't be the only Avenger who's there in Ultron City, or even in the world. So that prompted me to expand the Next Avengers into Next Marvel, dealing with other factions that survived and rebelling against Ultron. It's still kinda a work in progress, due to the fact that i have a case of the lazy. So here is the first segment of the Marvel Next ficverse:

Title: The Fantastic Force

On an ending note, i could really use a beta reader for this and if any of you have some ideas on what i should put in, let me known. So, read review, comment, tell you want to read more and that will probably gat me off of my lazy ass to do it.

Guess what! My admission application has been approved by the board of the College of Charleston!

Moving on to other stuff...The Holiday season is about family, joy, and good will towards men, blah,blah,blah, but what it's really about is presents, and life has taught us all that even though every year you don't get everything you want on your wishlist, at least your loved ones have an idea of what you'd like that year and maybe the next. So, in the spirit of all of our greed and unrealistic expectations, i will post, for the next several posts of the Holiday season, my Meta Wishlist, things i wish to see in my lifetime, but most likely will not. This first post will be to the topic of Comicbooks.

Wandering through the threads of the CBRForums, i found a thread that seemed to sum up all of my wishes, factoring in what's currently happening in comics. Can be found here: http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?t=286050, http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?t=91920,

DC Comics:

1. A team book of teen girl heroes DC either doesn't seem to care about with or are too offbeat to maintain their own title- Mary Marvel, Cassandra Cain, Ravager, Miss Martian, Misfit and Black Alice (odd grouping no? - lots of possible drama there) with a returned Linda Danvers as their unoffical keeper.

2. KID ETERNITY written by Brian K Vaughan and art by Craig Rousseau

3. Zatanna on-going

4. Man-Bat. Sort of like "Werewolf by Night" written with a modern sensibility - Peter Milligan maybe. With art by Mahnke and Nguyen.

5. New Gods series by Warren Ellis and Kevin O'Neill

6. A costume-less Doctor Destiny series where John Dee is re-imagined to be suffering from a massive withdrawal of the Dreamstone's powers after Morpheus took it from him. He'd wander the nation, looking for dreams to inhabit, and every issue we see him entering and possibly manipulating a random person's deepest and darkest desires.

7. House of Secrets relaunched, after forever, as a Vertigo title. With Mark Merlin as the title character. He died not too long ago, in a retirement home in Gotham City. Bringing him back as a sort of ghost detective would be interesting.

8. A supernatural horror/character study series featuring Nightshade. Eve Eden comes closer to death than she ever has in the past after a brutal fight against an unfamiliar horror. While unconscious, Eve receives a visitation from Daniel aka the new Dream. Daniel reveals that Eve was nearly murdered by a nightmare recently escaped from The Dreaming. The Endless master of the dream realm offers to save Eve's life in exchange for a special service--when she sleeps, Eve must protect dreamers from any nightmares that attempt to overstep their bounds.

9. I, Vampire. Vampires are treated with the same fear and loathing that AIDS victims are sometimes subjected to (although as one character puts it, "At least AIDS victims don't feel the need to eat people.") Vampirism is more like a Romero-esque "zombie" virus than the traditional supernatural force, although mammals like bats and wolves can be infected with it. In Andrew's world, it's not just the vampires that are bad guys: human vampire-slayers tend to go on vigilante sprees, killing "vegan" and human-killer alike. Some of the truly fanatical ones will even kill humans, asking questions later. At the opposite end of that spectrum are the methodical ones who study their prey, taking the time to divulge whether said vampires are "bad eggs" or not.

http://foxytunes.com/artist/luke+burrage/track/sfbrp+%23071+%e2%80%93+richard+morgan+%e2%80%93+market+forces

Hi there! Sorry about the long wait. On with the show!

1. Been having kinda a MST3K kick lately, much to Danielle's annoyance. My favorite episode so far has been Space Mutiny.

2. Last week, Rocky and I went to see the movie Ninja Assassin. Bad, cheesy action flicks can be turned into kickass awesome movies when you go in with low expectations, srsly. Some good things about it: 1. The hero was kick ass (infact i think there is a math equation out there somewhere that says the more badass the main character in a ninja movie is, the less of a plot to the movie there is). 2. The fight scenes were beautifully coriographed. 3. I also like the filmmakers did't make everyone white and American, which also brings me to the 4th reason. 4. the character of Mika,yeah she wasn't as badass or kickass as any of the other characters in this movie, but she gets an A for effort, i think they chose to play her as member of the audience, that before is like: "yeah Ninjas are awesome!" and then encounters the real deal and deals with the events as a realistic person would. Also ship her and the main character. Oh and the #5 good point about Ninja Assassin, JMStravinstky was one half of the script writing team for this movie, which finding that out gave me a geekgasm.

3. Rocky is getting me the Team EJO t-shirt as seen and is being sold on the Hijinks Insues webcomic. I'm betting money that at next year's ComicCon or DragonCon, people are going to be walking around wearing that shirt, and maybe make their own versions of Team Edward, like the Elric version, Pepeloo Tirotsky the 3, or Scissorhands, cause any Edward is better than Edward Cullen.

4. Sunday night, i was at a Christmas party with Rocky, hosted by the writers' group, and somewhere in the conversation we were talking about BSG, and i mentioned that the series takes alot of it's influence from the movie Blade Runner, and besides getting EJO as Adama, and getting the actor who played Tyrel as the Defense Minister in the Caprica pilot, i started to wonder aloud: why didn't the crew spring to get more Blade Runner Alumni. And the hampster in my brain is setting the wheel on fire, but mellowed when i remembered they would not be able to get Harrison Ford. And then my brain calculated: "He would have to be a perminent cast member, he just shows up for one episode. So here is my take on the Harrison Ford guest apperance if i was on the writing staff of BSG: Opens in the Galactica morgue, where you see Adama standing over a covered corpse on the table, and then Harrison Ford comes into view and says: "Are you going to go to the funeral?" and through out the episode, Adama and Harrison Ford's character are talking and their conversations set up that they use to be war buddies, and there are the obvious Blade Runner references sprinkled into them, such as: Harrison Ford's character: "I use to be able to fold a piece of paper into a unicorn." And then at then end of the episode, at the funeral that was set, it's fully military service funeral, and it's revealed that Harrison Ford's character has been dead before the episode began, and the last conversation that Adama has with him before the episode ends is about his relationship with Roslin, and Harrison Ford's character says: "it's too bad she won't live. But then again, who does." And then they jetison the coffin into space.

5. I descided to add a new plot element to ACC, the Groqescary, people who a born with mutations, but they are not the standard mutations, they are mutations that horrify the mass and they are cloistered away from society, but they bare no ill will from the society for what they did to them. One of them that i've already developed is Lucindia, a woman who was born without eyes on her face, but they are on her sholders.

6. I got the 3rd season of BSG for Rocky and i'm afraid of what his reaction is going to be when he finds out that Tigh, Anders, Tyrol, and Tory are 4 of the Final 5 cylons.

YAYZ! 100th post! Anyway, onward hoe!

Angery that Dollhouse was canceled.

In the middle the second season of Supernatual (or as Danielle likes to refer to them as "Cute Boys").

Danielle also found out this week the baby's gender, it's a boy!

Watched the Avatar (not the Last Airbender) trailer monday, watching House, and ... whaoh.

Been enjoying my new job at O'Charley's.

Got Rocky hooked on Balttlestar Galactica, and along with all thing BSG, i rescently read the latest epic fic by lls_mutant Space Between Us, and man was it awesome. Now as much as i enjoyed the canon ending, i still have a few hang ups about it, like many, and this fic was the antidote for it, although the only hang up i had about the fic was that 2 of my favorite characters, Helo and Athena, were killed off, but overall as a whole the fic was awesome.

6. Almost caught up on D. Gray-Man

7. Idea #2: Red Knight. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, meets Battlestar Galactica (the new one) and Code Geass, throw in steampunk. The Game War ended years ago with an uneasy peace treaty between the Card and Chess Kingdoms. This all ends when the Card Kingdom attacks the Chess Kingdom, killing the royals and slowly beginning their rule over the Chess civilians. Focuses on a brigade of Red Pawn soldiers in their quest to over throw the Cards and survive.

Hey, sorry I haven't updated in a bit, life and stuff. Weekend of the 9th, went up to Ashville, NS with my parents to visit my grandmother there. Was able to finish reading Flora's Dare and The Gunslinger. Also while i was in Ashville, i got inspired to create another character for ACC, and also ended up on a Greek mythology kick, and a few days later came up with the idea for a story that is a mix of American Gods and Gods Behaving Badly, which i will write after Novmember. This weekend, Rocky and i went to go see Zombieland. the only way i can sum up the movie is this way: it is the Gurran Lagaan of zombie movies. Anyways, here's some stuff that been floating around the web that has caught my interest:

http://io9.com/5386916/sleek-new-wolfman-trailer-gives-the-fur-boy-some-emo-edge i'm still going to go see this.

http://www.newsarama.com/comics/091020-marvel-january-2010-solicitations.html my wallet is going to hate me for the purchases i'm going to make in january.

http://www.newsarama.com/comics/091019-dc-january-2010-solicitations.html well, i know where my chirstmas money is going.

http://geektyrant.com/2009/10/new-sherlock-holmes-trailer-packed-with-more-action-and-humor/ so going to go see this.

Hey, sorry I didn't post last week, my fault. But today, and this week in general, was okay, although today felt very tedious, but anywho let's get on with the post.

Been making my way through Flora's Dare, started reading Thirteen Orphans, and reading the latest collection of Francesca Lia Block's poems.

Time for TV update. Saw the season premire of House, it was kinda sweet and i was surprised that the whole mental asylum angle didn't last the whole season, or even half way through the season. That would have been kinda cool, House is in the asylum, stirring up trouble/trying to get better, and Wilson is feeding him news of all the cases that the Ducklings are solving on their own, and seeing how much they've learned from House. Been watching Fringe, so far been really good, evading shape shifting super soldiers and hunting down mutant babies. And just watched the season primere of Dollhouse. As expected it was awesome. Jamie Bambier as an arms dealer was so lulz worthy and fun. When he slams Echo's head on to the desk, all i could say was: "papadama is going to be so disappointed in you Leemo".

But yeah, that's all i've got to report. Remember, comments are love.

Hey there, sorry about the lateness, i promise i'll post the next entry not so late as this. I've been trying to keep to the schedule i wrote up, but life keeps getting in the way. So, on the post.

I know it was only last week, but it's still a pretty big topic. Sorry i didn't post my reaction sooner but hey. Disney buying Marvel. Well not Marvel Comics, Marvel Entertainment. My first reaction to this news was shock, "i can't believe this is happening". Then anger, "NOOOO! THEY'LL RUIN EVERYTHING!". Then finally acceptance, "you know what, this might not be so bad...as long as they don't cast selina gomez as X-23 or have hannah montanna join the avengers" So far, i've kinda been enjoying it with speculation and the kick ass fan art that's been churnning out, but i think ItsSomeRandomGuy sums it up best http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyYb_r4cZHE&feature=channel_page .

Man, i can't wait till they add a Marvel section to Disney Land. Speaking of which, I went to vist my great grandmother in Orlando for the first leg of Memorial Day Weekend. Yeah, it was a big jump, but my gran lives in Orlando, and sadly my rents and i didn't have a chance to go to Dinsey Land. But the trip was still nice.

Sunday, i went with a neighbor to go see Ponyo. It's silly and obviously aimed more at children, bit a Miyazaki fan could still enjoy it. Hell, i did.

The rest of the week, pretty much been working.

This weekend, going to a job fair and need to get caught up on manga and webcomics i've been reading. But here's some news for some of the sites i freuqent:

http://io9.com/5357474/the-science-fiction-of-your-childhood-gets-the-robot-chicken-treatment/gallery/ Whatever it takes i am so going to watch this.

http://geektyrant.com/2009/09/the-princess-and-the-frog-international-trailer/ I want to see this just for the shear fact that Keith David is singing.

http://geektyrant.com/2009/09/guillermo-del-toro-to-makes-scary-animated-films-with-disney/ I am so there and waiting.

http://geektyrant.com/2009/09/disney-confirms-the-beatles-yellow-submarine-to-be-remade-by-robert-zemeckis-in-3d/ If it's as much as an acid trip that the original was, they can have my saving.

Hi there! The reason for all of the infrueqent posting is because since moving down here to Charleston, I've been just trying to get my life together. I recently decided to make the commitment of posting on a schedule. So before I go into my post, let me just say this: friends, countrymen, people who still remember me, if you find that i have not posted in more than 5 days, yell at me.

So far these past several weeks, i have been:

-Slowly converting my parents by having them watch Justice League: New Frontier, Green Lantern: Flight (which by the way was awesome), and the second season of Torchwood. We was watched the episode Out of the Rain, which reminded me how i've always wanted to write something with a circus or a freak show.

-Working on sketches for the Arcadia City Chronicles. I'll have to post some of them up here.

-Watched the second to last episode of True Blood. As much as last night's episode was awesome, it was freaky deaky, like it was giving me flashbacks of the issue of Sandman, 24 Hours.

And that is all i have to report, for now. Please comment, they are much appreciated.

10. Blond Roots by Bernardine Evaristo. This was a pretty interesting book about an alternate universe where it's version of Africa was the more developed country and began enslaving the inhabitants of it's version of Europe. The story is told from the point of view from a runaway, Doris. As she tries to make her way to freedom, she fills the readers in on the world she lives in and her life before she became enslaved and her life as a slave. The world is not only just a well idea what this world is, and it's mores and values, right down to the smallest details, but also line with tasteful cultural references which are kinda fun to spot, there's even a reference to Roots in there. The book is not racist, in fact Evaristo is half Nigerian, and just as the blurb says on the back, the book is about how this could happen in any culture and also warning how freedoms can be taken for granted. This book is wonderfully crafted, engaging, and it pulls you right in.



Sorry about not holding up my promise on the last post, decided to save it for NaNoWriMo. Also haven't posted because i've just moved down here to south carolina, trying to get a job, and get my life in order. There is alot of other stuff i could be posting about, such as the protests in Iran, or Michael Jackson's death, but i decided to post my review of this book.

Still trying to wake up this morning. Trying to get through Finals and turn in final assignments. I'm going to start posting a project that I'm just starting, called "On the Corner of Crowley and Damned", expect that in that this week or the following. Also trying to get ready to more down to South Carolina. Watched the season finale of Chuck (which i hope will get a third season, cause it would be a bummer if the series just ended like that, even if it was cool), the season finale of Heroes (which was cool the way they did things, but i really want them to start bringing in stronger female characters besides Claire and whoever Ali Larter is playing this week, and to stop giving everyone powers and neutering their supporting characters), and a new episode of Castle (which i've just gotten into). Currently reading: The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, Steward of Song by Adam Stemple, and Tiger Moon by Antonia Michaelis.

In the past couple months, read:

6. Singer of Souls by Adam Stemple. It's about an American drug addict named Douglas, who leaves the US for Scottland to make a new life for himself with a clean slate. During the Edinburgh Street Music Festival gains the ability from the Queen of Faeries, Aine, to see the fairies and other creatures. Now, something like would think: "This is AWESOME!", but not Douglas, it completely fraks up his life as he gets pulled into the wars the fairies wage amongst themselves and discovers a power he has that they want. It was an interesting read, but found it took a hard left turn when Douglas starts manipulating the faeries with his power and takes over the Faery Kingdom, but i think that was Stemple natural progression of Douglas's character in that he does have an addictive personality and is now craving control due to the fact that his life is spiraling out of control because of the Faeries involvment and other factors. But I think that's also why Stemple left it off that way to continue it in Steward of Song. Solid A.

7. World War Z by Max Brooks. I just finished reading this yesterday and it's realistic take on what would happen if there was an actual zombie outbreak and how would the world react. It's told in the aftermath of the outbreak and done as oral transcripts from various different members of society and nationalities as well. Lots of kick ass moments, as well as moments of heartbreak, example: i started crying at the interview about the dogs. This movie is also being made into a movie, which J. Michael Strazinsky (i don't know if i spelled that right), the creator of Babylon 5, has the movie rights to it. A+.

Yesterday was kinda okay and not so okay. The night before, saw the latest BSG episode where at the end we find out that Bill and Laura have been sleeping together for sometime. Anywho, yesterday went to the Post Office to get the money order that my dad sent me for my college books, and when i get to the front desk, the teller that i get gives me this BS that the money order can't be verified. So i get a ride from mom and grandma over to the bank and deposit it into my account. Then went over to my grandma's house to do my laundry, b/c K-Mart screwed up our order for a new washing machine, so we've got the TV on and i was channel surfing and found Friday night new episode of the Soup on, so we watch it. It gets to the part where they show the clip from Fox News where they use the word "fisting", and as it cuts back to the studio, where you can hear the crew in the background laughing, my grandma turns to me and asks me what they are laughing about, and then i had to explain to her what "fisting" meant. Also this week finished reading the manga series Victorian Romance Emma.

Got to watch the ABC News coverage of the Presidential Inauguration today, and took a break to go over to the library. I was able to watch Obama's Inaugurational speech and just found it so inspiring.

Let's see:
Wednesday-Got my wallet back
Thursday-Had a really nice Thanksgiving dinner at my aunt's home, and gave my cousin Tristan his first comic
Friday-Did nothing
Saturday-Got together with Cat and some other people and we went play a couple rounds at ShadowLand, and afterwords we migrated over to CiCi's for food
Today-Went to see the movie Australia with my grandma, and we both really enjoyed it.

Also during the break, finished two books for my goal of reading 500 books:
6. Tantalize by Cynthia Leitich Smith
7. Into the Woods by Lyn Gardner

The Murder of Binky Mackenzie by Jacklyn Moritary

This is a conversation that my best friend and I had a couple seconds ago IMing eachother.

me: check this out, this is so funny
Me: Done by implication in a Justice League comic: Bruce Wayne is meeting with Clark Kent in Japan, and Clark introduces him to a young Japanese woman named Hino Rei. Bruce immediately recognizes "her" as the Martian Manhunter, both because of his body language, and, as he put it, "The name's a dead giveaway". Now think about it for a second, and wonder what Batman watches in his spare time...
Cat: OH DEAR GOD
me: lol
