5 on Friday: Books for When You Need a Sci-Fi Break

I read a lot of science fiction. But, that’s not all I read. Lately I’m trying to break out of that shell, and expand my horizons. After all, read too much of one genre and you start to get jaded. You appreciate it less. You start seeing the tropes more than the

Doctor WHO?

I received 10 texts on Saturday about the BBC’s huge announcement- Matt Smith is leaving Doctor Who. Honestly, I am not surprised. He has been on the show for four years and while I have come to love him as the Doctor, it is time for him to move on. So the

Around Indy: They Might Be Giants at The Vogue

I have spent the past six years avoiding the Broad Ripple strip during the evening. Don’t get me wrong, I love Broad Ripple as a whole. Tons of unique shops, and fantastic restaurants for when you need a break. But the meat market that Broad Ripple turns into once the sun goes

Around Indy: Cards Against Humanity with Girls Pint Out

I have to admit, I was nervous when I got the Facebook invite from Girls Pint Out, an all female craft beer appreciation group,  to play Cards Against Humanity at New Day Meadery in Fountain Square. I love Cards Against Humanity as much as the next awful person, but playing in public?

Really Paramount?

I had been looking forward attending the Star Trek Into Darkness midnight premier. I happened to have the following Friday off for another reason, so no exhausted next day at work for me. Then Paramount announced they would be having “special fan sneak peaks” in IMAX on the Wednesday before at 8:00pm.

Pure Geekery Giveaway: TMNT Piñata

Lets be honest- at this point, dear readers, you can probably figure out that I was a pretty weird kid. I spent my childhood dressed as Dorothy refusing to answer to my own name, practicing my Lando cape swirling and of course playing with my dolls. As an avid Teenage Mutant Ninja

My Happiness Project: Yoga

In the middle of school/work insanity, I always long for the simplicity of summer- lazy days of swimming, watching tv, and playing with the geekling. In practice, however, I get bored without something to work towards-  a goal or deadline that keeps me busy on lazy summer afternoons and is key to

More Amazon Original Pilots!

Since I’m on a break between school and my internship, I took some time to watch some more Amazon Original Pilots. I love tv, and I especially love original shows- bring on the awesome! Dark Minions- Created by Kevin Sussman and John Ross Bowie (better known as Stuart and Barry Kripke from

Around Indy: Free Comic Book Day

Comic books are one of the (several) things I’ve always found interesting but have never gotten really into. I’ve read some Atomic Robo (which I really enjoy) and some of the Doctor Who comics (which I didn’t get into as much). There’s just so much out there though, that it’s hard to

May the 4th be with you!

I first saw Star Wars when I was 8 years old. My friend Molly and I sat awestruck in front of the screen for 3 nights, absorbed in sci-fi awesomeness. I had always been a bit of a nerdy child, running around with a headband over my eyes while my mom watched
