Sci-fi Dorkdom and other random crap...
I consider myself a Glamadork and an in the closet punk chick. By day i'm this mild mannered conservative finance worker. I live in this small town in Texas that is the bastion of yuppy elitisim. I hate it. yet, on the weekends I am totally different. I wear skull t-shirts and lots of black. I like plaid skirts with black leggings and chain belts. To me, I've always liked that look and just in the past year I have had the courage to rock it.
Compared to the regular sci-fi fan I guess I stick out a bit. I noticed this at my recent trip to my local sci-fi convention. Most people think wrestling and sci-fi fans are fat, dorky looking, and weird. People get shocked when I can aptly converse in all things geek. They say, "but you look so normal". I dont know whether to be insulted or take it as a compliment. Someone called me a glamadork. Glamourous on the outside, but dorky on the inside. I thought that was cute, but i'm as ackward as they come. I'm painfully shy, I read a lot, I collect action figures, i know waaay too much about comic book characters. I havent always looked like the way I do. When I was in my teens I had serious growing pains. I was 300lbs and never felt like I fit in even though I had friends and stuff. So in my senior year I decided to loose the weight. I did. For the past 3 years my weight has crept up on me, so in December I decided to get on a diet and work out 4 days a week. I have lost about 50 pounds or so and falling, but I still struggle with self esteem issues.
I'm so excited about the new Star Trek movie. I cannot wait!! All of my peeps are wanting to see this movie too and they don't even like Trek. Hopefully this movie can hook non-trek fans.
I've been hearing about the new Star Wars live action tv show for about a year now. I hope they hurry up!

Happy Holidays Blog
Well I don't blog often, but since it is the holiday season I wanted to know what you do for the holidays? I am looking for a new tradition to start, since I don't cook for Christmas and only for T-giving. I was thinking about a X-mas breakfrast. Every year for the past 3 years we have gone out to Golden Corral, but last year we got sick from the food. So I need some Ideas.
Also, What X-mas specials do you watch?? I love the A Christmas Carol, the really old one. I also watch the Mickey Mouse Version, but my favorite is the Nutcracker! I love it. I really enjoy the parades too.
Something Fun you can do!!
YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT
Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway-but
your waiter may know!
YOUR AGE BY DINER & RESTAURANT MATH
DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read .
Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!
This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.
1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to go out to eat.
(more than once but less than 10)
2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)
3. Add 5
4. Multiply it by 50
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1758...
If you haven't, add 1757.
6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
You should have a three digit number
The first digit of this was your original number. (I.e., How many times you want to go out to restaurants in a week.)
The next two numbers are
YOUR AGE ! ------ (Oh YES, it is!)
THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (200
IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS
Finally, I have something to watch!!!!!!!!!
Thank God, TV is back. I have been out of stuff to watch for a while now. Here's what I'm watching:
Kitchen Knightmares: I love Ramsey and I don't know why. Anything he does is Gold. However this season is a bit over the top with the Dr. Phil crap.
Fringe: I'm still on the fence about this show. So far it is o.k. but kinda like a cheap X files rip off with certain Lost bits in there. We will see.
Stargate Atlantis: This is the last season for this show and I will sure miss it on Fridays. I hope that Sci-fi channel will offer something new for fridays with BSG going off the air too. I dont want another Swamp Monster 15!
Terminator: love, love this show. It just keeps getting better.
Project Runway. This is the second season I have watched. This season is good so far.
Americas Next Top Model: This season so far is dismal. It is totally goofy, weird, cheesy and Tyra is over the top. The models are good, but the challenges are boring.
True Blood: Me and my friend watch this every week. Vampires in the south is very cool.
Heroes: This just started, but the premiere was off the hook. Loved it.
Mad Men; This is my first season watching this show and I'm hooked. It is very well written, slow paced, but interesting.
Making the Band 4: I'm starting to get bored since they started the tour.
Shows I'm looking forward to:
Doctor Who, Torchwood, 11th hour, Lost, BSG, Degrassi, Lipstick Jungle, Sanctuary, Sarah Jane Adventures, Naruto Shippuden, Big Love, Grey's Anatomy, The L word, and Star wars Clone wars.
