RNC is Done,Bring the DNC On!



So as the RNC(Republican National Convention) ends,the DNC(Democratic National Convention) comes upon us! Yes, more politics. Now like i said on a previous post here while the RNC was going on, i'm trying to get into politics, I can vote this year and I want to be informed. Possibly count. Though i'm in Texas so i'm pretty sure i'll be a red state. Still, I'll try! Well, I watch the speeches, gather info, just try to learn about who wants to run our country. And yes i'll watch the news on the tv at points, but i am, as you have maybe noticed, an interwebber. So I find the majority of info here. On the nets. Well, I have to say my favorite so far is watching Phillip DeFranco(known youtuber) and Sourcefed(youtube news show) do live shows at the RNC and right now at the DNC. I tend to share a lot of their views in this so it fits me. Their first live show at the DNC is up if you would like to brew some coffee and give your brain some exercise.

Now to be honest. Romney seems like he just might know what he is doing, business wise. But it's his "moral standards" as a Mormon that concern me. Now by all means, be whatever religion you want to, worship a turtle if ya want, just don't force it on me. But, it seems to be what he wants to do. The whole pretty much taking rights away from women, rape victims, incest victims, trying to get rid of planned parenthood (which I think is a great organization), hating on anyone gay, getting rid of Pell Grants(FASFA?), things that seem pretty important in my book, away.Also, he seems to be only  really focusing on the wealthier of America, and not the poor so much. Plus, he has creeper face. I just don't really agree with any republican platforms. Don't even get me started on Rick Santorum.

"You want to know whether we're better off? I've got a little bumper sticker for you: Osama Bin Laden is dead, and General Motors is alive" -Joe Biden , DNC

Obama, on the other hand seems to be a lot more open minded.And not a religious shove it down your throat type. I'm not saying he is Mr. Perfect, but when he got the job, it had already been fucked. But he seems to be on the same level with most issues that concern me. And I like that. He isn't going to put a barrier around my uterus and say, forget about it darlin'.He supports gay marriage, which I totally support, love who ya want dude, just like the whole worship who ya want I mentioned earlier. Now i'm not sure if im a Democrat, or a liberal, or a Republican(probably not though) but so far Obama seems to be the lesser of all the evils. He may not be perfect, but I know he is better then the rest of these assholes. But of course, the economy card comes in, its screwed up. It's been screwed up. And honestly I can admit I don't know too much about it. But this is why i'm researching, listening, learning.

You should too!!

Packing crisis and the return to Vegas


So I'm packing, or trying to pack, for Vegas this weekend :) we're staying for four days this time so we will finally have time to go to Freemont! We never really have time to go, so yay! :D but yes, I'm having trouble deciding what to bring. Shirts, shorts, dresses, under things, flats, sandals, a pair of jeans,a pair of black leggings, toiletries, book to read, headphones, charger, glasses/contacts, straightener, plane blanket. I'm pretty sure I'm all set! But jeez, I always no matter what have the urge to pre pack, I don't want to miss something or forget, so I pre prepare! But I honestly do that with everything. Nic on the other hand still hasn't packed! It drives me crazy haha and he always forgets something! :p he'll read this, babe go pack!!! Meow!! Lol.
Oh and I had coffee with Marina today, it was nice catching up and what not again. She got a new car and it is crazy cute!! It's tardis blue!!
Ok back to the clothing crisis that's living in my room!!

DoctorWho:Asylum of the Daleks Recap & Spoilers!





The season premier of ‘Doctor Who’ gives us zombies, more Daleks than we’ve ever seen in one location, the break-up and make-up of one of one of our most loved couples and a new companion. There are also new credits with a fresh font and Dalek bumps on the logo. All in 45 minutes that seem more like a movie than an episode of television.
We open on Skaro, the homeworld of the Doctor’s most iconic enemies: the Daleks. A woman has contacted the Doctor. He realizes it’s is a trap just as a Dalek eyestalk bursts out of her forehead.
Meanwhile, Amy Pond, supermodel, is interrupted during a photo shoot. An assistant tells her that her husband is there, but she replies, “I don’t have a husband.” Rory sits in a makeup chair with divorce papers. She quickly signs them and he storms out. What happened to our beloved Ponds?
As Amy sits dazed, her makeup artist’s forehead grows a Dalek eyestalk. The same happens with Rory’s bus driver. They wake up on a spaceship with the Doctor. The Dalek Prime Minister demands that the three of them go down to the Dalek asylum, where the most hate-filled Daleks are kept, and deactivate the planet’s force field.
We’re introduced to a pretty brunette genius named Oswin (Jenna-Louise Coleman) who crashed on the planet a year ago. She spends her downtime baking soufflés, hacking into the Daleks’ systems and blasting Bizet’s Carmen. The Doctor ponders where she gets the milk for her soufflés as he and the Ponds are teleported down to the asylum.
The Doctor and Amy are separated from Rory, giving them time to catch up as they are attacked by Dalek zombies. Amy tells the Doctor that he can’t fix her marriage like he fixes his bowtie.
They escape, but Amy loses her wristband that keeps her from being turned into a Dalek zombie herself. She begins losing her memory as they search for Rory. The cheeky Oswin flirts with both the Doctor and the newly single Rory over the intercom as she helps them find each other. Back off Oswin, he’s taken!
The Doctor makes one of the Daleks self-destruct, blowing up the others. He goes to find Oswin, leaving the former Mr. and Mrs. Pond to talk.
Rory tells Amy she should take his anti-zombie armband because the Dalek conversion works by eliminating love and it’s obvious he loves Amy more than she loves him. He reminds her that he waited 2000 years to be with her (swoon). She becomes angry and says she loves him more and that’s why she let him go. Amy can no longer have children, and thinks Rory deserves a chance to have them.
As they work things out, Rory realizes Amy is actually wearing a wristband – the Doctor gave her his. As he walks past a security camera, the Doctor fixes his bowtie.
The Doctor enters intensive care, where the Daleks who hate him most are housed. They corner him, but Oswin is able to hack into the Daleks and delete all knowledge the Doctor.
He arrives at Oswin’s chamber and she begins to pack. As he walks in, his face falls. He asks Oswin again how she had milk for her soufflés. She pauses, confused, and the camera pans around to show not a pretty girl but a chained up Dalek.
Apparently, when Oswin crashed on the planet, she was converted to a Dalek, but she was clever enough to create an elaborate fantasy world. She fights her Dalek programming and lets the Doctor go.
The Doctor returns to find Amy and Rory kissing (yay!). Oswin takes down the planet’s shields and the Doctor teleports Team Tardis back to the Dalek spaceship. As the planet explodes, Oswin turns to the camera and promises she’ll see us again soon. (Oswin is played by actress Jenna-Louise Coleman, who is taking over for the Ponds as the Doctor’s traveling companion beginning with the Christmas special in December. It appears we already saw the end of her story, yet with ‘Doctor Who,’ you never know.)
The Daleks are confused when the Doctor appears on their ship. “Doctor who? Doctor who?” they chant. He realizes Oswin not only erased memories of him from the Daleks in the room with him, but all Daleks everywhere.
He drops Amy and Rory off at their townhouse in London. After an awkward pause, Amy turns and walks into their home. Rory grins and follows her.
Meanwhile, the Doctor pilots the Tardis, dancing, spinning around the consol, singing to himself, “Doctor who? Doctor who?”
What did you think of this episode? Were you shocked to see a future companion? Does Amy love Rory more? Doctor who? Leave your thoughts in the comments.
* Jenna-Louise Coleman, of course — and this is no spoiler to all but maybe seven of you — will be playing the companion who replaces the Ponds after this season. The question is, how? My money says the Doctor finds her before she experienced that fateful crash-landing on the asylum planet.

WoW, RNC, DNC, and Mermaids




Helloooooooooo :] It is now finally September! Yes! Fall is a coming and the weather better get cooler here in Houston cause it is still, melting. Hot. Humid. Blah. How have you been interwebs? Good I hope. I have been pretty good too!! It's all rainy here :/ and stormy. And the power kept going on and off so my wifi network was going crazy. And so were the other million computers in here.
Oh! So I have been trying to pay attention to the election this year, learning who has what to offer. I can actually vote this year and I think it is pretty important, so there is a chance we will only be a little screwed. Watching interviews and coverage at the RNC (republican national convention), watching Youtuber Philip Defranco and SourceFed doing live shows from the RNC and interviewing people. It's pretty great what they are doing. And god, I have learned that I hate almost all Republicans. So far, that all seem like assholes. Conservative, bible chucking assholes. And i'm sure there are people out there who are like, no!..no! I am a republican and i'm NICE. Well. I have not met you. Or seen you. Some of the things these guys say just wow me. Even the women standing by their side. It is crazy. Know what happened at the RNC that I pretty much saw no News coverage about outside the internet? WELL. A CNN camera woman was at the RNC doing her job, being a camera woman, and, she was African american. So, what do two republicans do? (not sure if they were delegates or not) They throw peanuts at her, while shouting "this is how we feed animals!!!". WOW. wtf. Really?? And I seriously have heard nothing beyond the internet about this. Messed up. The DNC(democratic national convention) is coming up soon and i'm pretty excited to hear some more speeches and find out more about the candidates. More coverage, more interviews!

 Oh and DragonCon is happening right now and it's not cool that i'm not there :'[ one day, I will be!! And my costume and Nics costume will be coordinated as hell!!!


Also, Nic got me this the other week :D!!!!
Ariel the little mermaid pop doll!!!!!! She is so cute and I love her and It is awesome and now i want them all!!! They have whole series. This is series 3. They have StarWars ones!! I need them in my life, ya know? Just do. Simple as that! So thank you boyfriend :] haha. They also have the Ursula one to go with Ariel and i kind of want that too. She looks pretty wicked.

So I have been watching some videos from this youtuber I found and she is hilarious, great videos, different channels and her gamer videos are pretty awesome as well! I think my favorite video i've watched on her gamer channel is the WoW pop culture references #4. So ya know, WoW is World of Warcraft, a  massively multi-player online role-playing game (MMORPG) game. Very addictive. Seriously, addictive. And i'm pretty sure my laptop wont support the game, I desperately need a new one and a desktop. But, i'd probably be addicted if I had a personal desktop with a kick ass video card. ANYWAY!! here is the video, watch it! it's pretty funny whether you play WoW or not :D you'll get it!
She is called Random Panser!
EDIT: So youtube wont let mee post the right video, not sure why, BUT the WoW pop culture ref is HERE :D


Ok thats all today :]
Oh and enjoy your Labor Day Weekend!!! BBQ, Beer and fun!
I'll be mindlessly looking up Doctor Who things this weekend because, ITS BACK TONIGHT!!

killed four people so i'm having a great day!

Si I am in an amazing mood right now! Like lets get things done have coffee i'm happy as hell kind of mood. Well, I think it has to do with the dream I woke up from this morning. I remember the beggining a bit fuzzy, but I was in a parking lot and these assholes were breaking into our cars(3) and stealing mine (purple) AND the broke the window. I was so pissed. beyond. And they saw us ( my family and I) but they kept on going, because they didn't think we could do anything. So we got into this epic fight, like those Boondocks show epic fights. They started to drive off in my car, so I ran at then and hung onto the side with the broken window, unlocked the door. Jumped in.  Three people in the back, fat white guy, some girl, tall guy. I pushed the tall guy out the door with my feet,  I grabbed the girl and I swear, I bit the side of her neck with the main artery and tore as hard as I could! So while the girl and fat white guy were in shock at what i did, I grabber the driver from behind and started to gouge out his eyes while he was driving. He stopped the car. SO i got out and the girl, and the tall guy were left cause the fat white guy ran away. Coward. So the girl came at me, slow mo as epic fights go. And i noticed an ax on the ground. So i grabbed it, and as she came at me, WHAM, right in the chest!! She fell to the ground. The tall guy wasn't giving up though. He was mad i pushed him out of the car. So he came at me and we got into a epic fight. I was not giving up either.eventually (cause the dream jumped) I got him to the ground and i had a razor sharp knife to his neck. And i said, " are you ready?", he closed his eyes and said "just do it". So, I cut, a small cut, and I laughed at him. He open his eyes like they were asking a silent question. I said, " I would never slit your throat, thats horrible!" he looked relived. But, *i reached behind to my pocket and pulled out a hand gun* I will shoot you in the head! :D *Big Smile* and I shot him right in the head!

They started it.

Interviews, Music and Tea, oh my




Well i'm winding down the day with come sleepy time tea, king of the hill and some sweet bloggin'. Oh yes. Today I had an interview with a certain jewelry store and i'm thinking it went totally great! I was actually a little nervous since I know nothing about the jewelry industry, I don't really buy jewelry my self, all of it is handed down to me by my mom and grandma and so on. Most of my experience is writing related or food industry related. I was a bit worried. But the guy i interviewed with was very cool. They are totally willing to train. When he started, he said " I do want a qualified person, but i don't want to just hire a robot to work, we want to hire a real person, someone who can create relationships with our customers, and so far, you seem like just that person". I actually said "ha, cool!" -_-" I think he knows i'm some kind of cheery geek. He asked questions about previous jobs, why I left, why i want to work here now. And I really do. I want to get into the jewelry industry! so i'm hoping this goes well! His manager in training came out to talk to me about the "business aspect" of the interview, and she asked me to sell her *this pen. So I did my and and she was like yus! that's good you really did a great job! :D haha. It was sort of fun. Over all they said i'll probably get a call soon-and interview with the regional manager soon :] I have a great feeling about this!I think I would do a fantastic job there :D


Also I (well Nic) got a cd from a band he performed with in Austin, they are called The Lennings, and they are pretty awesome! I'm about to load up the songs cause after this post Nic is going to want this back haha :] But for sure go check em out. Now i'm waiting on The Blackwells to finally make a cd before I die of impatience.

FYI secondlovers will be playing tomorrow night at Fitz open mic night, so come on out if ya want, i may or may not be there but yeah :] it'll be fun!

good marrow!


goood afternoon!! I was about to type morning but realized im just being lazy today. Resting up cause i might not get too much sleep these next few days. Oh, why? Well SecondLovers has a show in Austin tomorrow night at Franks :] i'm pretty sure it's a hotdog and beer place. I hope they have bunny hotdogs like moon tower inn, i've yet to have one! And there actually isnt much to sell right now except maybe, MAYBE, about 6-7 of their cd's left? Get Awesome Music here, or sample the awesomeness! Everything is still being ordered and made. So Jenna and I don't really have to set up anything this time lol. Oh, and i'm excited to make a second trip to Veggie Heaven!! It is, i swear, the most amazing meatless food I have ever had. 

Because I am a Velociraptor.

OH! and one of my new favorite bads in Texas are TheBlackwells!! I saw them play with SL and the songs were so great that the lyrics were like, burned into my memory haha. Most anyway. And they are going to play in Austin at franks too! :] < happy camper. I love the good as gold song soooo much! it's playing inn my head now. oh and the "there's a rabit in my garden! It's eatin' all mah food!" song, also awesome.

i'll do a Texas bands you need to love/stalk post soon :]

Oh yeah, so see that awesome mug there? Coffe mug. Not my face. But that's awesome too. But the mug yes, it is my dads and i took it because i love it. He has a couple of mugs he keeps in his room (as do i) so no one else really uses them. Like the Vegas one, the #1 Dad one, the race car one i got him when i was like 8 and still has nasty chocolate in it he never ate lol, you get it. But i had to! At least once in my life. Plus he uses my mugs too! :]
But, i was a X-Men The Phoenix one :]
i think she is awesome no matter how crazy my dad hates her lol
He likes Wolverine.  

i'm going to get more coffees



More awesome Mugness :]

Daria, Katara, Ramona Flowers and why they are awesome

So I'm already mauling over costume ideas for this October :) planning early so maybe I'll end up with a home made costume :)
Now, even thinking about doing Andy of these as coustumes gets me all giddy! I swear, I'd freak put in happiness!
One idea is Katara! From One of my favorite cartoons Avatar the Last Airbender! Katara is a water bender helping the avatar to leant and defeat the evil fire lord Ozai :) great show. She is awesome, talented and the glue of the group. I want her character costume from book 3, when they are hiding in the fire nation :)




Another idea is Ramona Flowers! From the graphic novel Scott Pilgrim vs the World!! She is Scott's eventual love interest, takes shortcuts through sub space, and always had odd colored hair. She is a badass. Now there are a few character costume ideas for her, but the hair and steam punk goggles are what I'd need, I think she is pure epixness.





And the classic uber awesome Daria (nananaanana) haha. I use to watch this when I was little and loved her, she was dripping with sarcasm and every episode always had me laughing. And she made me feel better about being a girl with glasses :) this character costume would be simple but I'd have to buy every thing for it, the costly part would probably be the boots but, it would be badass!








I can't completely choose right now
It's too difficult haha I love them all

Shameless self promotion!

Oh yes, this is a shameless self promotion post :] yes sir, i'm craving taco bell right now, on the hunt for a job and talking about my store i forgot about. yeah you know, the one with stuff? About things? yes. That one! Well! its about time i talk about it again, ya know, before i forget forever :] the store is called HeyJudesCloset! It has some stuff for this site, the store site, and some little things i managed to make on they designer on my slow pain in the ass laptop :] shirts, mugs, stuff! take a look, buy something, or be a pal dammit and promote, jeez people :] what do i got to do to get some internet face time? lol.

Now that the self promotion part of this is done :]

Today I did some job hunting, I went to a Hallmark store and ended up applying to four of them. That store is pretty cool, aside from cards, the little gifts they have there look so fun! There was a toy cow, that when you squeezed it, a yellow ping pong ish ball popped out of its nose. yep. That happened. Did that today and some errands, grocery shopping, coffee drinking and eating any free samples i came across at HEB :]

ugh, tomorrow i need to clean this place up :/ or stuff it all in my closet. Which i just cleaned out not too long ago. Maybe i have too much clothes? maybe. but i don't think i can throw any of it away, its so pretty :]


Epic slide show thingy!




Give it a look! New designs on their way!
