I’m starting a new series called “Geek Like Me” - profiling the geeks, nerds, and dweebs that you should know about, but probably don’t. Up first, Sarah Natochenny!
My pal Sarah is a model - which is ridiculous enough on its own. But she is also an anime voice actor, and plays the voice of Ash […]
Oh Ghostbusters 3. You better be careful. If I decide to believe in you, to really think you’re going to happen, well then you better happen and you better be good. Don’t you break my heart, Ghostbusters 3! Don’t let me love you if you’re just going to fizzle out (Goonies 2) or end up […]
I feel like I’ve left you guys hanging on this whole dating issue. Sure, now we all know how to get dates, but what do you do once you’re actually ON them. I don’t know. But here are some things I’ve learned you shouldn’t say.

Ok, fine, I give in. I will write about Dark Knight.But, what is there to say? When you see a Lion jump over a canyon full of diamonds on a moped made of fire, what can you say? “Wow. That was as awesome as I hoped it would be.” I mean that’s about it.I do, […]
I have terrible taste in musical theater. If you are thinking “Wait, but musical theater IS terrible - what is the difference?” allow me to introduce you to my favorite musical: Starlight Express.This show is– I mean… there aren’t words. It has taken me 3 years of blogging to mention Starlight Express because it is […]
Just a lion.
I have been zipping through Orson Scott Card’s “Ender’s Game” books over the past few weeks (well, up until I got to Xenocide - yeesh! Snooze city, right dorks?) I mostly read on the subway or crouching in the corners of public restrooms, and I’ll tell you - people just can’t stop […]
When I was 15 I memorized the Fear mantra from Dune* - I had plenty of time to do it, since I wasn’t busy dating or showering regularly or anything. I was thinking about it again recently and decided that in an effort to allow my fears to “pass over and through me”, I need […]
