There's lots of fun, quirky, and geeky stuff out there. I write about it.
When I came back from Boston, I had a pretty big shock. I lost my job. This wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. Lately, I’d discovered I’d been yearning for quitting time and not putting my all into my job, and that’s just not who I am. My big revelation of the amazing opportunity I’m presented […]
Read More I Lost My Job, Now What?Mental Floss sent me 23 Fun Facts About Firefly today. Now, I want to watch Firefly…and Serenity…again. After a rather hectic few weeks, I think that is just what I’ll do this weekend…or a Hobbit marathon.

This is Marvel’s biggest leap into live-action television, […]
Read More Daredevil is Coming…Oh, this is just beautiful. Are you a Twin Peaks fan? It’s weird how certain topics come up in conversation over and over again. I’d watched Twin Peaks a bit when it first aired, but I was a bit young (my parents really weren’t all that thrilled about their 13 year old watching it). I hadn’t really thought […]
Read More Creating the Theme for Twin PeaksHave I mentioned I discovered Netflix? I think I did, but let me say again, I LOVE NETFLIX.
