Batman Gets Rapey

I know Valentines Day is over, but I can't help but post one more valentine-related thing. I saw these old Batman valentines, and frankly, Batman comes across a little rapey.







If he's going to hunt me down and beat me I don't think I want to be his valentine.

Valentines For Any Galaxy

Apparently today is the one day that can bring anyone together. Who knew.

Lovin It Up with TMNT

Nothing says love like a few mutant turtles and multiple pizza references.

The Origin of Valentine's Day



Get Your Valentine On

Here's some valentines magic to get your day going.











It's a Valentine Kind of Day

Since it's Valentine's Day I found a bunch of fun and sometime ridiculous valentines to post throughout the day.

It's Getting Closer

Only a month and a half until the brand new season of Game of Thrones. I can't wait. Hopefully they will start releasing some trailers with actual clips from the upcoming season soon. Until then...

Lego Lord of the Rings


I’m a huge fan of all the lego video games. I like that the basic play is pretty easy. I don’t get too frustrated when I play, but that after you beat a level there is still a ton of stuff to figure out and find. They keep me occupied for a long time. Most of them tell you the percent you’ve completed of the game. Naturally I see that as a challenge and must complete it to 100%. Lego Lord of the Rings is the newest lego game, having been released in November, and it may be one of my favorite yet. It’s a little harder to find all of the hidden elements in each level compared to previous games which I like. Also, there are new tasks to complete that other games haven’t offered. There are random people that will ask you to find objects hidden throughout Middle Earth, and instead of collecting gold brick you collect mithril blocks that can be taken to the blacksmith to be turned into certain objects. One of the neatest things about the game is that between levels you can explore all of Middle Earth. There are characters, mithril brick and quests to complete scattered around the land with plenty to explore. It’s kind of like Lego Batman 2 where there was all of Gotham City to explore, but I like this better because Middle Earth is much larger and less redundant. This is a game I would definitely recommend.

One Spicy Cake

Or five different spicy cakes.

I'll Tell You What I Want

I forgot just how weird this video is. Ginger Spice does a lot of shuffling around while staring at the camera waiting for her turn to sing.

Spice Up Your Candy

I've decided to roll with the Spice Girls theme for today and stumbled upon a couple different types of Spice Girl candy.

I enjoy my suckers/lollipops most when there are faces on them.

I'm not sure if all the members got their own bag of crazy dips or not.

These are one of the best things ever! I don't think I'd be able to bring myself to eat these.

I'm Feeling Some Spice Girl Love


I don't know why, but when I got into my office this morning I had the strong desire to listen to some Spice Girls. That and play with these! I love that they had several different Spice Girls dolls along with multiple outfits for each. It would have been unjust any other way.

The Greatest Lunch Pail Ever


Ever since the first time I saw Return to Oz (and was traumatized) I've always wished I has the super sweet lunch pail Dorothy gets that grows from a tree. Realistically, I could probably make myself one, but for now I'll be lazy and dreamily stare at pictures of one.



Right now I'm thinking about how completely necessary it will be for me to make a bunch of these lunch pails and hang them from a tree in my backyard. That way when I'm back there jumping on my trampoline and get hungry, they'll be a tasty snack just hanging by.

How to Be a Hipster

I kind of love the show Happy Endings, and I really like the episode where Penny dates a hipster. She has to get lessons on how to fit in with hipsters, and it's pretty spot on.

Berry Bears!

I just realized the name of the bear fruit snacks I loved. They were Berry Bears. They had the awesome yogurt pegasus one that had different colored wings. Each box also came with a little action figure that was a member of the bear family. For some reason I remember almost always getting the baby bear. I don't know why but I can't find pictures of the box or the actual fruit snacks anywhere. It's become my new crazy mission for the day. I want some pictures of Berry Bears! I did, however, find a picture of the action figures. It's all I have for now, but at least it means they were real.


Gummy Goodness


My mom happened to surprise me with a sweet box of Star Wars fruit snacks, because she remembered how much I loved them as a child. This got me thinking back to all the awesome fruit snacks I'd eat on a daily basis when I was a kid. I really wanted to find the gummy bear fruit snacks that had the different colored unicorn pegasi, but I haven't been able to find much on them anywhere. They were one of my favorites. Oh well.




The Great White sharks were the best. It was also so satisfying when you got one.
