A geeky blog by a mom of two geek girls in training. A little bit about nerdy/geeky things that I find interesting. From Marvel to Penpals. IGGLES to Anime. Dolls to Collectibles. You name, I'll probably talk about it at some point.

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)

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.

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)

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)

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)
