FF – I heart DubsmashWar Round One
It's here! DubsmashWar Round One has begun! Well, kind of - Team Carter has their submission up, but Team Shield is radio silent... hmmm... hope this doesn't mean Loki is misbehaving again... Because this war is also raising money for charity, they've asked that people not embed videos for the duration. So, please click on... Continue Reading →
FF – I heart Killjoys
No, I don't mean killjoys in the spoilsport, sourpuss, stick-in-the-mud kind of way (though I've answered to those appellations once or twice). I mean KIlljoys, the latest space opera offering from the folks at SyFy (aka Skiffy). The first season just came to a close on August 21st, and I'm hoping against hope that we... Continue Reading →

If you missed my blog post last month, no worries - I'll wait here while you pop over and catch up. You're back already? Wow, you're a fast reader. Okay, so now that you're up... Continue Reading →
FF – I heart Rocky Horror
The Rocky Horror Picture Show movie turns 40 today (why am I not surprised it has a Leo birthday... *grin*)! If you've somehow missed the visual and musical feast that is RHPS, here are a couple of relevant bits from Wikipedia - The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a 1975 British-American musical comedy horror film...

FF – I heart Sense8
About a month ago (specifically July 2nd - I know because I had a Facebook conversation with the eldest about it), I watched the first episode of Sense8 on Netflix. By the end of the hour, I'd cried a couple of times, raised an eyebrow once or twice, and couldn't wait to find out what... Continue Reading →
FF – I heart Harry Potter and JK Rowling
Today is the thirty-fifth birthday of Harry Potter, and the fiftieth birthday of his creator, JK Rowling. As I mentioned at the beginning of the month, JK was born a mere two days after yours truly, and it makes me ridiculously happy to count her among the extra-special July Leos (special because we're outnumbered by...

FF – I heart Lynda Carter
It comes as no great surprise to me that Wonder Woman (aka Lynda Carter) is a Leo. *grin* When I was a young girl, many thousands of moons ago, I had magazine posters on my bedroom walls of the usual - Andy Gibb, Parker Stevenson & Shaun Cassidy (aka, The Hardy Boys), Rex Smith, and...

FF – I heart Team Carter vs Team Shield
Every year I struggle with FOMO when it comes to SDCC. But when I found this outstanding summary of the Marvel DubSmash War between Team Carter and Team Shield over at The Insightful Panda, it took away some of the sting. It started with this simple DubSmash - @clarkgregg #COMICCON2015 A video posted by Chloe... Continue Reading →

FF – I heart the Fourth of July
Three things I'm a fan of this Fourth of July holiday weekend - Fishtown Horribles Parade My dad, way back in the day, used to park his pickup truck on Stacy Boulevard the night before the parade (July 2nd), and on more than one occasion, walked the three and a half miles to our home...

To help my process, along with my Microblog Mondays, and Wordless Wednesdays, I'm instituting Fractional Fridays whenever necessary until August 1st. Think Fandom Friday in a quick, I like this thing, here's a picture of it,... Continue Reading →
