Bears Don't Run Into Things

I ran into the edge of a door this morning and then I watched a series National Geographic was doing on baby black bears. You gotta take the bad with the super cute and adorable I guess...

Blinky, Pinky, Inky & Clyde

Do you think Mr. and Ms. Pac-Man were happily married? I've always wondered this, mainly because you rarely see them actually together. Yes the story of their love was depicted in the transition stages of the Ms. game, but nothing of Mr. Pac's so called "love" was mentioned in his game at all. Plus she went by Ms. not Mrs., which now that I think about it kind of means that they were already related before they bumped into each other while running away from ghosts. Were the Pac-Man's cousins who married after a meet cute during a family reunion where the ghost represented their fallen relatives?! I think yes.

Will You Be My Companion Cube?


About a week(ish) ago I treated myself to some time wasting/brain stimulating fun. Now, Dani never does this only because once she does she gets so deeply enthralled in the pixelated goal of success that she forgets to eat food and sleep sleep. But like I said I was treating myself and needed a game that guaranteed greatness, and I mean greatness at dopamine inducing levels. Everyone has always said good things about the Portal series so, like a good girl I started at the beginning (there are only 2, but still). Less than 12 hours later... I killed that snarky GLaDOS. I kilt 'er good. Then I went on Etsy and found these gems to remember my victory by:

Where Have All The Chalkboards Gone?

Chalk is a lost medium. Let's bring it back shall we? Here are loads of different ways I found of reusing chalkboards, remaking chalk and turning ...well pretty much anything into a piece of art via chalk paint. The opportunities are endless people. ENDLESSSSSSS!


^ Oldschool kids chalkboard. Memories...


^ This one is a ring! Genius right?


^ Chalk by numbers.

Circus Circus

If colors could make joy then there must be something about that red and white stripe that breeds happiness, wonder and on the very tense and dramatic occasion...fear. OMG don't fall don't fall don--- oh there's a net there, never mind. Circus = a happy place filled with mystery and excitement. Unless of course you're one of those people who hate clowns... then it's more like hell. :/

Movie Muse = Where The Wild Things...


"Happiness isn't always the best way to be happy."


Ok, who remembers the drama of sorts that occurred when this movie came out? Raise your hand... because I do! Basically what had happen' was pre release advertisements and an overwhelming amount of excitement from the blog/indie world caused a pit of failure to form in most peoples stomach when they went to finally see Where the Wild things Are in 09. I predicted this! Honestly I did. There's something about too much artificial hype in a movie that can really ruin it for most people. Everyone was making tents and craft and craziness! (Which I secretly loved.) But the movie's plot was very much undercover and it was pretty apparent that people were becoming aggressively excited over a movie that they knew nothing about plot wise. This is a rant...sorry, but it's only because I LOVED this film when I saw it back then and still to this day am on the verge of tears every time I watch it. Point being, don't get too involved with the hype yall! (pimp walks out of the room)
