R.I.P. Missy Puppy. 2000-2011.

This is a sad post.

My family’s dog, Missy, had to be put to sleep yesterday evening. A few months ago, she had surgery to remove a tumor from her leg. Since then, it grew back, spread like crazy, and was almost taking over her entire leg. Our options were to amupate her leg, or put her to sleep. We obviously opted for amputation since dogs can live totally healthy lives with three legs. Or two, in one case. In Missy’s case, aside from her leg, she was in no pain, and was still always happy and playing.

During the surgery, they found that the cancer has spread beyond her leg, and was on its way to her organs…it was too much to remove, and the vet said that letting her go was the only option.

artistic Missy.

Yesterday was also her birthday. She turned 11.

RIP Missy Puppy. Beggin’ Strips forever and ever in the sky. </3

*breathes*

The Sci-Fi Expo Guest lineup for the Toronto Fan Expo, which is now FOUR DAYS of amazing nerdy awesomeness, was released today and I just want to post about it because this is one of my two favourite sections of the Expo and HOLY WOULD YOU LOOK AT THIS LINEUP:

 

…

I KNOW, RIGHT!? And they’re not even done yet!

I’ll post last week’s Comic Expo lineup tomorrow, I just got super excited. The other Expo lineups are being released weekly, and I can promise I’ll be all over that shizz. After seeing this I’m so stoked for the Horror lineup I can’t even.

Hopefully this year Suicide Girls will have their booth again!I’m going regardless, but it’s way more fun at our booth. :D

X-Men: First Class Teaser Trailers Are Kind Of Amazing.

There’s some (okay, a lot) of hesitant fans regarding the latest installment of X-Men films, X-Men: First Class. Most are worried that it’s going to be as awful as X3 and/or Wolverine (side note: I thought they were both awesome, haters gonna hate.), and butcher the franchise even further.

HOWEVER. These character trailers were just released today, and, well…watch for yourself.

Banshee:

Havok:

Beast:

You can also see how well James McAvoy is shaping up as Charles Xavier (very well), which I’m sure several of you are concerned about. Be concerned no more.

If those don’t convince you of the sheer AWESOME to grace theaters in less than a month (yay!), then I’m sorry, but we can’t be friends.

Also I want to throw in the super awesome OMG LENS FLARES poster that was recently released as well, because it’s funny and MOAR LENS FLAERS:

…so yeah, where my total babe mutant boyfriend?

In Which Things Come Up Milhouse.

Hi friends. I’ve been busy! Yep. I know, right?

HOWEVER.

Rather than being busy watching Netflix and playing Minecraft until my brain shuts off and I pass out, I managed to (finally) get myself a new job.

Official title: Social Media Strategist for Union Marketing. (Go like the Facebook Page, y’all.)

Basically I’m in charge of Social Media (derrr), event coverage, and some light graphic design.

Oh, did I mention that unless I’m at an event, I work from home?

And that I’m getting a laptop from my boss?

Yes guy indeed.

I’ve been on a huge cooking binge lately. Nothing too fancy, but I recently (or maybe finally?) discovered the wonderfulness that is kale. I made it with my ghetto Easter dinner:

Breaded parmesan turkey cutlets, and kale & spinach sauteed with garlic and balsamic vinegar. One of the many amazing delicious meals I have cooked lately, but the only one I took a photo of.

I just wanted an excuse to post this.

 

Also I made some stuff which I’ve been to lazy to properly format to throw into my portfolio page, so I’ll put them here:

Myspace page for my wonderful ladies in Mittenz.

Poster for an event for my friend’s comedy troupe Flamingo Bandit.

I’d complain about the horrible weather and be all “IT’S RAININ’ SIDEWAYS!” but everyone already knows.

Everything has been turning out pretty amazing lately. About time. I even found my friend a job as well. I hope my awesome streak continues, because, well my awesomeness hasn’t been able to shine full force for a while so WATCH THE HECK OUT.

PS:


My life has become a wardrobe full of flood pants.
