New Boys in Town

Oh the new bunch of geek icons have made their ways into my celebrity crush fantasy land. First up. Zach Quinto. Okay I have to admit that originally, I didn’t think there was anything hot about him as Sylar on Heroes. But then as Heroes unfolds, his acting just makes him white hot.  Especially those times he was with Elle.  I mean, this scene here with her teaching him to use the electricity?  HOT!  Hotter than when they actually slept together. Seriously. Then again, the evil mastermind sociopath thing also works for me. And then, Zach as the emotionally restrained...

Sloth Flu

I almost literally slept through this week. Coming down with some kind of sickness, I was expecting that after 2 weekends of wind, sun, and mead.  I just didn’t quite expect it to hit so hard. Wednesday morning, I woke up with a sore throat and zero energy.  I called my boss and went back to sleep. I woke up for breakfast, made echinacea defense tea, and went back to sleep. I woke up to snack and shambled out to my cooking class with Aurora. (Link up soon.)  I came home, watched LOST, took Tylenol PM and went to sleep....

Phototastic Friday: Monday Edition

A lot has happened since last weekend. But most of them captured in photos. First, last Saturday we had the photography meet up in Lancaster with #Phototwop (@captures) for the Poppy Reserve hike and the Poppy festival.  Unfortunately, we were much too late for the poppies except for a few patches on the side of the road.  We still had a great picnic and a maniacal hike up a VERY windy hill. The next day, Brandon and I and his friends hit the Renaissance Faire as civilians.  Armed with our cameras, we got our Ren Faire photo bugs out of...

Glee

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNU0KoBIIdE] The show hasn’t even started yet but I have Glee on my brains. Talentless little outcast who just wants to sing.  My life story?  Yep, pretty much. Also, once a choir geek, always a choir geek. Since I saw the clip a couple of days ago, I have music–just random songs–playing in my head all day and caught myself walking around singing or humming. Not that I’ve been extraordinary happy or anything.  I just feel like singing. I mean, I was waiting for the bus today.  Looking around the people around me, I imagined myself breaking into a song....

Phototastic Friday: Winning Geek

I have been submitting “Action Shots” to ThinkGeek.com for a while now.  C.H.I.M.P. Bunny here and Expendable there. So when the final purchase of my shirt-tastic shopping spree came in (I mean, Rock – Paper – Scissors – Lizard – Spock!? How could you NOT buy?), it took all of 5 minutes for us to set up this shot Brandon took, and for me to submit with suggested caption of “You Spocking to me?” Ladies and gentlemen, you are now looking at the winning portrait of  ThinkGeek.com’s Action Shot of April 2009. It didn’t take ThinkGeek team long to approve...

X-Rated Morning

Started the day with Hero Complex’s collection of the character spotlights for X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Dear Wade aka Deadpool: I am from a far off exotic place and I’m “new, exciting people”.  Meet me and I’ll let you kill me with your hotness. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdzKX1bEyEw&feature=channel] And Wolfy, darling, milk DOES your body soooo good....
