Christmas Tomorrow!

OMG Christmas is tomorrow and I've totally flaked for posting pretty much anything this week! Instead I will say... Star Wars was amazing (that it all!) and I hope that you all have a wonderful Christmas and New Year. I will hopefully post after Christmas between all the family visits and events! (image: Digital Spy)

So to you and yours! Geeky and Non Geeky Alike! Have an absolutely Wonderful holiday season and a Merry Ho Ho to you!

Until next time.
Keep on, Geekin' on

A post of fun stuff!

So I'm too hyped to see Star Wars tonight to think of anything cool to post. I had plans to put up some crafting thing, or even a Funko Friday. Well being I can't decide I figured I'd just through them all up. Mostly because I felt you would be VERY inundated with Star Wars stuff today that you didn't need more and also 'cause fun stuff before the weekend makes me happy. (image by me)

Star Wars... Dun Dun Dun... Star Wars!

So we did it... we bought tickets for Friday for Star Wars! We are going all fancy with the Cineplex Odeon's VIP section... we get to sit in fancy chairs and be served, also it's an Adult only section (I don't mind kids but it's date night) so I'm very excited! (image: Force Awakens Blog)

Trailers Monday!!!

It's Monday... the last Monday until all the little kiddies are off for 2 weeks on Christmas Vacation. What does that mean?? All us parents are pulling out our hair because we thought we were okay for getting everything ready and we all know now that we SO AREN'T. So to infuse a little calm in the hectic life I thought we'd have a Previews/Trailers Monday!! Put your feet up and geek out a little with me for 10 minutes!!

Christmas Geeky Creations

It's finally hit that time... a few weeks before christmas and I'm looking for a simple craft to make for all my friends cards. I know I know... I probably should have started a few weeks (months) ago but I didn't. So here's a collection of some of the things I've found... or used in the past. (image: done by me!)

Wicked Finds: Design Miami 2015

So I was trolling all my favourite sites and I've found some slightly different than our usual geekery. I was planning a series of cool things to buy, but instead I came across an amazing art exhibit that I felt needed sharing... because seriously some things are just too awesome to buy. (image: DeZeen)

Hot Topic Rocks: Doctor Who!

There's nothing like Hot Topic and their new lines always rock. I think I totally need to go on an insane shopping trip at their store, and now that they have one closer to me I think I may need to hold tight to my purse strings. (image: Tardis Wiki)

Let's do a Funko Friday!

It's been a few weeks and with the Holiday's coming I thought I should catch up with some of the awesome Funko Pop! Coming Soons. Now most of these (or all of them) won't be available till January or February so they will miss the Christmas Rush... I may have to do my top 5 Funko's I want soon... hmmmm. (Image: Funko)

You Tube and My Personal Quest

With Christmas prep in full swing and the anticipation for Star Wars eating my skin away I figured that I should go on a You Tube rant again. I have been watching a lot of You Tube lately and that's not really normal for me. Usually I'm more a read about everything person but the facination with You Tube is really drawing me in. (image: decoded magazine)

Geeky Christmas Ornaments: Etsy Creators

So I was out shopping for new outdoor lights this past weekend and found some fun Star Wars Christmas lights that I didn't buy because they were seriously over $25 for only 10 lights on a string... but that got me wanting to find some fun geeky christmas ideas. So I took to my friend Etsy and here's a collection of some of the stuff I found. (Image: Geektrum)

Trailers and More Trailers Weeee

So I feel like I've been innundated with a whole bunch of awesome trailers lately and I thought everyone should watch them... even if you have already seen them, like a thousand times already! Why?? Because they are awesome and I like getting hyped for movies.  (image: Arrowstorm Entertainment)

Hair Ideas: For the Geek at Home

So I've been trying to decide if I want to chop all my hair off really short again, let it grow, or just leave it be and see what happens (the last option usually doesn't last long). I admit, me and long hair are a rare thing. Being the hair cut hasn't been decided I've been looking at some fun colour options. (image: Ebay)

Christmas is ONE MONTH AWAY

If you haven't realized it yet, Christmas is only one month away. What does that mean?? Other than presents and Santa Clause, it's a time of re-runs and cliff hangers for your favourite shows. What is also means is a bunch of fun video surfing (at least I do) watching trailers for mid season premiere's and christmas music. (image: Tumblr)

Funko Friday!

I couldn't resist doing Funko Friday this week, there was just too many cool things to pass up that have come out over the past little bit! I always love new Funko scheduled releases and I am totally that geek that waits to see what they schedule so I can drool over all of them. Oh to have a house big enough for all my imaginary collections. (image: Funko)

What I'm Watching!

So it's been while since I've talked about what I'm watching and I thought today we'd discuss some of the new and old series that I'm currently reviewing. (image: Wikia)

Colouring Books and Board Games.

So it's my birthday next weekend, but this past weekend we went out with some friends to an awesome Board Game Cafe in Guelph. Not only was it a lot of fun and the establishment well put together, I also got one of the coolest gifts. (image: The Round Table/ Lynnvander)

Vinyl Sugar now part of the Funko Family

So it finally happened! Something I honestly thought had happened before, or at least believed they were related in some way. Funko is now the official home of Vinyl Sugar. (image: Funko Blog)

A Love Of Dolls: From Monster High to OOAK

There are few things that I am as passionate as I am about geeky things but dolls just happen to be one of them. I will admit, I love dolls and not your typical Barbie, but all the ones that are a little on the different side. (image: Wikia)

Remembrance Day

Oky... my life totally got in the way and I blanked completely on Monday's post! As much as I want to make it up to you today is Remembrance Day and I feel that we need to take the time to thank those who have stood in, or around the line of fire. (image: Kevin Peter [I believe the image is from somewhere else but this is where I found it])

A bit of Awesome Friday

 
It's Friday... already! Yup instead of going weeee I actually feel a little taken by surprise. This whole week has flown by so fast that I barely felt like I had a breath the whole time. So today I thought we should look at some fun and cool stuff, some that I totally want to waste my money on! (Image: Voyage of the meemee)

NaNoWriMo... and Star Trek

I'm going to start off by saying: too all my friends participating in NaNoWriMo much respect. I have slowly discovered a love of writing and am ever so slowly trying to expand on that but I understand my limits (with time and organization lol) and truely respect your abilities. I have so far written 3 short children's stories (that maybe someone will get to read some day lol) and maybe I'll try my hand at writing something more substantial but to write that amount in one month is very impressive.

Halloween Win!

Okay, So I acknowledge with Halloween I totally neglected writing. However I have totally managed to win Halloween for another year... but this brought me to a few conclusions. (photo by me)

Halloween Week and I'm going Crazy!

So this weekend is Halloween... and is only second to Con Prep and Christmas. (Although I think Halloween is better than Christmas) What that means is I've been a little scarce this week (I know I know, yesterday totally went poof without a post. Today isn't much better... today is just a brief rant. (image: Imgur)

Hallo-week! Monday Mayham (A Game)

It's here it's here. This is the final week for all the prep and creations for Halloween to be finalized and if you are anything like me you are totally panicking because you feel like you need at least 2 more weeks to get all the stuff done. Well, to take your mind off of all that lets do something fun! (gif: Pandawhale.Com)

Funko Friday

From Assassin's Creed to Baby Metal there are quite a few new Funko releases that have come out in the past two weeks. I'm sure they are amping up the Christmas rush and who wouldn't blame them. What I'm loving is the diversity. So continue after the break for a brief run through. (image: Funko)

Costume Crazy: Halloween Update

So I'm in full costume swing for Halloween. I thought I'd share some pics with you being I'm a little swamped with sewing that I didn't have much time for today's post.

Wednesday Addams: the Costume

We all know and love little Miss Addams. We also love her costume of the Homicidal Maniac. The thing is most kids would love to be Miss Addams for Halloween. So let's look at her costume.

Terrible Tuesday: Halloween Yard

Okay I have to admit my Yard is actually really lame this year. As in only one sad sign on the whole yard saying Trick or Treat. But I thought I'd share for Yard Envy pictures that I found only. Yay Inter-verse.

Halloween Prep: Movies for the Family

13 days till halloween and what did I do this weekend?? We cut out patterns, sewed and watched Halloween movies that were kid appropriate. So today I thought I'd talk about a few of them. (Image/Gif: Buzzfeed)

Cosplay Fabrics... but I live in Canada

So I was looking through Fashionably Geek (as that's something I do fairly regularly) and what do I find? An amazing product of Cosplay specific fabrics that are being created in concert with Yaya Han, Jo-Ann's Fabric Store and Cosplay Fabrics. (image: Cosplay Fabrics Facebook)

Hot Topic: Nightmare Before Christmas

I love Hot Topic. There are few clothing companies that I would buy almost everything they have because I think they are awesome and Hot Topic is one of them. Just to solidify my love of all their stuff now they are making a Nightmare Before Christmas Fashion collection. (Image: HD Wallpaper  & Hot Topic Logo)

Happy Thanksgiving Canada: The Grateful Geek

Oky, I know I'm two days behind but I took an extended Thanksgiving Holiday with my family. So be it! :) We had a great time and I'm back to write about all the Geeky Things to come... Mainly HALLOWEEN!! Can I get a squee?? Well, one thing about Thanksgiving. It definitely makes you realize how little time you have till Halloween, then Christmas to follow. So in good Thanksgiving spirit lets go through my top 5 geeky things I'm grateful for. (Source: photobucket)

Keeping up with Fandom (Repost)

We’ve all been there. There are a ton of amazing shows and movies and books coming out but our actual time is limited. Not only are we trying to juggle all this media that really excites us and wants us to watch it, we are also trying to juggle this thing called real life. Suppers and work, School and sports. Our lives are filled with things that we have to do and things that we want to do, that we are bound to fall behind on something pretty quickly.

Halloween Costume Ideas: A Couple's Costume

So my husband and I are going to a ballroom dance (aren't we all shmancy) and dinner for Halloween with some friends. This is partially because it's our 5th year anniversary (yup we got married on Halloween) and because our friend is performing at the dance. So now I'm on a hunt for the perfect couples Halloween costume. (image: from my own wedding photos lol)

Wickedly Cool Wednesday: Accessories and other fun stuff.

Some days you just need to look at cool stuff you want to buy and haven't yet (or can't afford in my case) so I thought I'd find some cool things for us to get through the mid week shlump. (image: Fashionably Geek)

Mary Poppins: From Book to Movie to Movie again?

Mary Poppins, we all know and love this iconic character and all her amazing songs. Well I finally managed to sit my children down and watch it and to my surprise (with this day and age of high graphics and computer technology) it captivated them both the same way it did to me. So while pondering what I should talk about on a Tuesday. I decided to look up Mary Poppins and what do I find but a Disney release of a supposed new Poppins film in the works. (image: OC Mom)

Funko Friday: The Monday Edition

It's Monday again and I totally just realized I flaked on Friday to post anything. So for that I thought I'd do a special Funko Friday on Monday this week. So here's some of the awesome stuff that will be coming out by Funko. (Source: Funko)

Happiness Thursday.

 So it's that time again. It's Thursday. The day that often feels like the never ending gateway to the weekend. I have to say that this week I'm quite happy for today. I got to sleep in till 7:30 (lol) and take my kids to school. I went grocery shopping and have been watching TV all morning. So in my excitement today I thought I'd post my top things that make me happy! I would love to hear your top things as well. (image: quotehunter)

Last day to a new life!

Today is it! I go in for my last day at my current job. If you haven't been keeping up I actually gave my notice a few weeks back and am embarking on an exciting and slightly terrifying journey of being a stay at home mom and home business owner. I say terrifying and exciting for a few reasons which I will discuss. (image: RapPad)

All the Shows!!! What do you PVR?

It's that time of year again... the binge watch of all my favourite TV shows so I'm caught up for the newest season to start! Which also means I'm PVRing all the season premiers.

Monday Mayham: Prep for October and Halloween

It's almost the end of September and I'm rearing up to get into Halloween Spirit (especially after a week of almost no posts and sick family at home). So today let's explore the preparations needed for October Halloween fun, because it's never too soon to shop for Halloween or make things... or just... HALLOWEEN!!! (image: rebloggy)

Top Movies to Watch when Sick at Home.

It's fall! The leaves are changing colours, the kids are back to school and everything is getting sick. Sickness has been riddling my house this week (which is why I haven't posted until now) and there has been no way for anyone to actually get anything done. So today I've decided to create my list of top movies to watch when sick. (image: Dr. Clouthier)

Best Things about Fall

Okay so recently my Friday's have been focused on Funko (because seriously, they are adorable) but I thought I should to something different this week. So today I'm going actually try a Friday Top 5 again. Sometimes I really like doing lists and top 5's, but other weeks I hate being limited to someone else's ideas on my own blog. I'm sure I'm not the only one. I like my content to remain someone original and if nothing else my own. So today lets talk about the best things about Fall (from a geeky perspective of course). (image: Pinterest)

You Tube videos that make you Smile!

Today is Thursday and sometimes I believe Thursday is so much worst than Monday. Monday you start the day with either a bang or a crawl and then manage to continue on through your day and week at a decent pace. Thursday is the last lap till the weekend, you can see the finish line ahead of you but you still have SO FAR to go that you really don't know if it's worth running or just taking an extra long nap. So today I thought I'd give you a pick me up with a bunch of fun youtube videos that I either have loved for a LONG time or have recently discovered. (image: Wallpaper 222)

Wickedly Wednesday: The newest items from Hot Topic

September is in full swing. Somehow we have managed to pass half a month in a blink of an eye. I have to say I'm still feeling like it's the beginning of the month when it's nearly the end. Although I haven't totally accepted it I'm really quite happy for October getting closer, if nothing more than for the cool stuff that always comes out in October. Well, this year I'm sure won't disappoint and I have to say that the Newest items from Hot Topic are totally on point for my usual Wednesday Wednesdays. (gif: Elite Daily)

Cosplay Prep: Things I learned at Fan Expo

When going to large conventions you end up sitting in a lot of panels (well at least I seem to). There are ones for celebrities, there are one for fandoms and comics, creator panels and even how to get a business going. This year I attended a few of the Cosplay and costuming panels. They were quite interesting and I came out with some great information. (above is a Picture I took of Yaya Han at her Q and A panel)

Fan Expo: Costumes I Saw

One of my favourite things about going to Conventions is getting to see all the amazing costumes and how much work people put into them. So today (for a Monday) I decided to put up a collection of some of the amazing work people did. (there may be some repeats from other days but who doesn't want to see them again.

Funko Friday: All the Wars in the Stars.

This has been an amazingly huge week for Funko. There's been quite a few new items set to be released and some pretty awesome Star Wars news as well. If you follow Funko you may know some of these items release schedules already but I just wanted to touch on the stuff I'm excited about... so mainly let's talk Funko and Star Wars. (image: Funko)

Hi! I'm still alive! How about you?

Fan Expo was a roaring success last weekend and I really really really need to write an amazing post about all the fun stuff I learned and all the cool people I saw. The issue is that currently my home computer isn't set up and I can't edit any of my photos (or really link them properly) until I have that up and running. I'm hoping to get it all set up tonight and then maybe I can actually post something more fun tomorrow... YAY!

New Month and Big Changes

I'm Back! I'm sorry about the lack of posts the past 2 days but there has been a lot of things going on since the Convention (which was awesome and I'll do a better post hopefully before the end of the week with all the awesome costumes I saw and maybe even a panel discussion). Today, however, I will just be doing a quick post. (image: Gaping Void Art)

Cosplayer Collection: Friday

Here's a collection of some of the amazing cosplayers I've found and met today at Fan Expo!!

Hopefully I'll have some more amazing people for you tomorrow. If you are any of the above cosplayers feel free to contacted me if you want a copy of the picture.

Until next tomorrow.
Keep on, Geekin' on.
