Hey everyone!

Margo - I remember Sky High! I just haven't watched it in a while.

I'm watching the second season of Lost Girl. I just started watching it and already I'm addicted to do it.

You are truly my people.

I watched 2009 Star Trek last night and was bowled over by the complete lack of plot and the plotholes you could drive the USS Enterprise through. I mean... holy crap. Plus, I love Simon Pegg, but he would not SHUT THE HELL UP.

What? How could you not like the Star Trek movie? It was fun! I wouldn't call it great literature, but it was fun.

I just... I would go into the massive issues I had with the plot, but I don't want to potentially spoil anyone. But they have a lot to do with time travel ERASING THE PROBLEMS THAT YOU'RE PISSED ABOUT. Plus, I also hated Kirk, misogynistic but theoretically charming genius that he is. I mean, there's ways to portray a guy as being a skirt-chaser without having him break his neck craning it at every woman that walks by. Subtle!

Yes, cupcakes for everyone! Sprinkles (or whatever you call them where you're from) on top!

And I'm pretty shiny, thanks! Enjoying the beginning of spring break with some writing (finally!). School and work have kept me so busy for the last few weeks, it's not been very much fun, so yay writings!
