This week has been crazy busy and it's just getting crazier. I still have to finish a design for my friends' MS Walk team. Me and Curtis' crew have dance practice tonight for a performance on Sat. I have three books I'm designing at work. And I'm officially allowed to start moving my stuff to Ft. Collins on Sunday. Yay! I am so excited to get this started. I haven't lived without roommates for nearly three years and it's going to be exciting and scary all at the same time. It's going to be nice to have my own place, but I am realizing more and more how much fun I have with my roomies. Having Emily means there is always something going on. I worry that I am just going to end up sitting on the couch watching old House reruns, wondering what she's doing. Then I remember that she will probably be watching the same thing and I can just call her and we can watch it together!
The UK Watchmen site as a sweet Minutemen arcade game you can play. These are the video games I can get behind. You kick, you punch, you jump, and you walk...and that's about it. Simple enough to entertain me, I guess. I miss these simpler times so much. Now I can't play Halo without throwing up in my mouth a little. Does anyone remember the first Double Dragon video game? Many a sleepover of my youth was spent A-buttoning some pixelated fools. And I used to play the Simpson's arcade game at Time Out with my sister for hours! Ooo, Ooo, and there was the X-Men one where everyone was in their old school costumes!!! I miss being 10.

Aren't these awesome?! The makers of Mighty Muggs continue to amaze me with the variety of things they can do with the same basic figure. Wizard Universe has a preview of the Marvel's fall toy line on the website now. Click here for more pics and toys.

He makes me the coolest post-it drawings you have ever seen. They cover my desk and computer at work and make me smile all day.
He his favorite X-Man is Gambit and mine is Rogue. Totally romantic in a totally goober way.
He once told me my outfit looked like a bag of Skittles exploded.
He's just as goofy as I am!
Holy cow and be still my heart. The picture above is not from my bedroom, though Emily might think otherwise. This gloriousness is part of an exibit at the Toy & Action Figure Museum in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma. The museum contains over 6,ooo figures with displays dedicated to Star Wars, He-Man, GI Joes, and Batman, to name a few. And to top it off, there's the Super Room, where you can try on the costumes of your favorite caped (or uncaped) crusaders. I wonder if I could convince my peeps to go on a little road trip with me this summer to check it out. Plus we could stop by here too.
I guess this place is surrounded by a gun store and gas stations.
I only hope my offspring will be as cool as this kiddo.
As to be expected, one of my favorite books is "The Zombie Survival Guide". Max Brooks is a genius and is the only reason I am going to be a productive human being. I am the type of person who isn't really grounded in reality, so the prospect of a zombie invasion freaks me out to no end and keeps me up at night. I sit in my cubicle at work and imagine if I could use my stapler to destroy a brain. I love my new apartment, but worry about all the windows I'm going to have to board up. I love my boyfriend more than anything in the world, but I wouldn't hesitate to put one between his eyes the moment he joins the ranks of the undead. Imagine my relief when I found this book! Go out and buy it here. You will be better for it. Here are the top 10 lessons for surviving a zombie attack. Thank you so much, Mr. Brooks...
