Loving: A Song of Ice and Fire, The Thick of It, The Walking Dead, and as ever my beloved Buffy.

Oh, and Sportacus from LazyTown is pretty fucking hot. He and Effexor get me out of bed these days.

2009 marks the 20th anniversary of Dawn!

I have loved this Joseph Michael Linsner creation since about ~1995, and I've loved her in every incarnation - be it brunette, blonde or cherry! She is the perfect showcase for Linsner's incredible and prolific talent.

While watching my Idolize Yourself DVD today, I experienced the following thoughts...

( Warning: Fangirl silliness ahead! )

Star Trek XI - I went to see it at my husband's insistence, and I went very unwillingly.

I'm writing about Nikki Sixx today. Why? Well, read on...

Specifically, I like what most people call "bad 80s music".  My husband is constantly appalled by my taste in music (he has threatened me with divorce on a number of occasions ( Read more... )

Well, I decided to resurrect this LiveJournal account after I made a second Twitter account just recently ( Read more... )

I think Billy Idol is fantastic. I can't remember a time when I didn't think this - I mean, I've loved him for years (many years).  Really though, what's not to like? He has a great stage presence, incredible confidence, and his live performance energy is near-indistinguishable from thirty years ago! For the record, I also think Cyberpunk is a ( Read more... )
