Happy Easter

Posted in Geekiness, Miscellaneous by Char

I know it’s only Good Friday and Easter isn’t technically for another couple of days. But realistically, I’m not going to be posting on Sunday (heh), so I thought I’d wish everyone a happy Easter (or blessed Ostara even though that was last week) ahead of time. If you don’t celebrate Easter, Happy Early April’s Fool’s Day!

And yes, I know that Easter and April Fool’s aren’t actually on the same day this year, but this evil raccoon is awesomely hilarious.

You know you’d do this if they really were on the same day.

Have a good weekend!

Oh look, a new blog design

Posted in Geekiness by Char

I know, I know, I haven’t changed my blog’s design in a long time. I know some of you hate the changing designs. But I haven’t changed it in a while, and I thought it might be fun (or just different) to change it up a little. I may change this one back to my original, but I kinda like the random zoo animals going across the header. I also like the brighter colors.

Anyway, it’s something different to look at. I blame WordPress for constantly releasing new and fun themes. If you like it, don’t like it, or think I should just quit looking at new WordPress theme releases, let me know in the comments .

Looper: Time travel gives me a headache

Posted in Geekiness, Mama Entertainment by Char

Last weekend, Hubby and I watched Looper with my parents. (Not in theatres, obviously; we rented it from Redbox, because YAY REDBOX IS IN CANADA!!!!!) Ahem.

Anyway. I’ve wanted to see this movie for some time, because 1) Bruce Willis movie = explosions, 2) yay science fiction movie!, and 3) Joseph Gordon-Levitt (what? I used to watch him in 3rd Rock from the Sun).

After watching the movie, I learned five things:

Joseph Gordon-Levitt still looks yummy (ahem)
Bruce Willis is still full of kick-ass action hero…stuff (whatever it is they make action heroes drink for breakfast)
At some point in the next thirty years Joseph Gordon-Levitt will turn into Bruce Willis
Telekinesis!

2013 resolutions

Posted in Geekiness by Char

I don’t normally do resolutions. I mean, let’s face it; most people give up on those resolutions before the end of January. Only a small group of people actually accomplish what they resolve to do.

And trust me, I am not part of that small group of people. (I’m more likely to be in the small group of people who abandon their resolutions on January 2.) But every now and again I resolve to try to be more like normal people, and so I make resolutions and attempt to follow them.

Apparently, 2013 is one of those years. (Don’t worry, I’m sure this attempt at normal will only last until the end of January. Until then, bear with me.)

So what are my resolutions?

New year blogging

Posted in Geekiness, Mama Entertainment, Miscellaneous by Char

I must apologize for my sporadic blogging this last little while. My offline life has started to take off at warp speed, which doesn’t leave a lot of time for blogging (because I’m still trying to catch up to the damn ship!).

I’m not abandoning the blog, but from this point on I may only be able to post once a week. Well, that’s my hope, anyway. I mean, there are still lots of geeky things to blog about — like my recent discovery of the Klingon Gangnam Style video! Seriously, how did I not know about that?! I’m afraid my geek cred is slipping, so obviously I have to change that. Can’t have people thinking I’m not the geeky dorky Trekkie mom I really am!

More to come in the future!
