The Walking Dead Season 7 Death is the ONLY certainty

Why is everyone flipping out over the upcoming season 7 premiere of the walking dead? I am not saying I don’t freak out. I mean the fact I watch this show at all is a paradox in itself. I NEVER liked the horror genre in general and if I did list my top 5 types of horror I am certain zombies would have been at the bottom. Which is why the last six seasons of TWD have been kind of magical for me.…

‘The Walking Dead’ mid-season final speculations

Much like all the other fans of The Walking Dead I spent the last week freaking out about the upcoming mid-season final. Last week’s episode “Heads Up” was a long crazy bi-polar ride of emotions that in true walking dead fashion switched between hope and fear like some twisted amusement park ride. The ending was a cliffhanger full of dread. The beloved characters once again facing a horde. Will…

What will come of Cecil the Lions killing?

R.I.P Cecil the Lion I know this article is a bit late but I was just so angered by this that I knew anything I wrote would likely become a rant. So I want to make a few things clear. I always understood hunting as something done for the meat and sometimes in the case of a multi-point buck for example the animal might become a trophy in addition to its meat being harvested to feed people. Hunting…

" My Particular Brand of Crazy 2"

So I am still trying to write my SAP appeal letter for #SNHU.  The letter should be a single page. Which means I only have about a paragraph to explain why I did so badly. Which is nearly impossible. I understand it needs to be professional and to the point but also honest. I need to express the seriousness of what I’ve been dealing with. If they don’t understand and don’t give me the chance to…

               I am happy as a Leverage fan to have someone like Dean Devlin who (seeing the possibility of this season being the last season) cared enough to insure we fans got a proper goodbye. The fact is that to many canceled shows these days are giving characters unsatisfying and empty send offs that leave fans ( already heartbroken by the loss) without closure.

That being said I want to be clear that I am grateful for such a well done proper send off that “The Long Good-bye Job” gave Leverage Fans. The team might be down two but Sophie (who’s real name I am content never knowing) and brilliant, damaged Nate are happy. I mean of the five these two are the most likely to settle in to a semi-normal life. The parents have retired in a way. While  Elliot, Parker and Hardison (The kids) continue the family business of standing up for the little guy.

I just can’t help but be a little angry. Okay really mad. I am mad because its true we got a great final, its true we knew this might be coming. Its also true it was kind of like a present being that it aired ironically on Christmas.

I’m still Mad! I keep reading posts from other fans expressing their sadness about this being the end. Almost NONE of which express the need to try and fight it. I feel like all the things we are thankful for like the proper send off and the fact it aired on Christmas have made many fans think we have no right to still be mad. “Its so Sad” is the phrase I keep reading Over and Over. I feel almost hypnotized into acceptance. Like every one has been coaxed into quietly & politely accepting this loss. I mean after all its only the polite thing everyone else is doing, right? That alone upsets me more then the loss of this show. Even if its not kosher, polite or whatever I DON’T CARE.

Had a sudden and unexpected Death in family so obviously my participation in NaNoWriMo has stopped. 

Why do they call it that anyway? unexpected or sudden death? I mean even when a person is elderly and in the hospital and you Know they are going to die soon its still kind of shocking when they do. 

This person was 39 and while not perfectly healthy still should not of died.

So a month since I have blogged anything and I'm ashamed. Life keeps kicking me in the ass and I never seem to move aside in time. So in all my procrastination. With the weight of my often just ridiculously bad grammar and elementary spelling mistakes. With my Horrible planning skills and major lacking of follow through. I have decided to jump into NaNoWriMo.
