The Nerdiest Thing I’ve Ever Done – Stop Motion Lego Star Wars Movie
My son is obsessed with AT-ATs. The other week he asked me an AT-AT shirt, so like any (newly) Star Wars loving mom, I was happy to oblige. Naturally everywhere I looked online didn't have them in his size. The next day, I happened to stumble upon this amazingly perfect shirt while shopping in … [Read more...]

5 Fandom Friday – 5 Broadway Roles I’d Love to Play
If there's one thing I love to do, it's sing. I may not always do it well, but when I do it, I sing loud and proud.

A Little Late to the Party: I Love Star Wars
I realize I'm about as late to the party as I could be, but thanks be to the geeky gods and my insistent friends, I now love Star Wars. My road to Star Wars love didn't start out so pretty. I had never seen the originals when the new episodes released. I remember being 12 and my parents took me … [Read more...]
Too Cool for School – Blog Awards
Ohhhhh it feels good to be back. I had zero intentions of taking a blog hiatus, but with preschooler home all summer, blogging ended up taking a back seat. We had busy summer full of swimming, Disney, and trips to almost anywhere in the Orlando-area that involved air-conditioning. I think we're both … [Read more...]

5 Fandom Friday: Characters With My Favorite Fictional Fashion
It's Friday so it's time for another 5 Fandom Friday created by The Nerdy Girly and Super Space Chick. This prompt wasn't hard for me at all. If there's one thing I love, it's good fashion. I think it's safe to say part of the reason I find the idea of cosplay so alluring … [Read more...]
I Read My First Comic: Why I Love Fables
I'm pretty sure in my 30 years of existence, I've never once read a comic. If I did as a young kid, it obviously wasn't memorable as I can't recall. While at Barnes and Noble last week buying something nerdy, I also decided to have a peek at the comic/graphic novel area. I had no clue what I was … [Read more...]
