So after
Much Ado About Nothing was announced via Twitter by Nathan Fillion and Sean Maher and a few other Whendonverse twitter accounts I follow at something like 11pm on a Sunday night I squeed. I squeed a lot. I retweeted. I commented. I was happy. Then I was stuck. Most of my friends (I said most Jordo.) have no intrest or not to the amount that I think of how awesome this is going to be. Amy Acker, Alexis Denisof, Sean Maher, NATHAN FRAKING FILLION(not that I don't get to watch him weekly on Castle or anything) paired, once again with Joss Whedon (do we not remember how AWESOME Dr Horrible is? and they filmed it without anyone in the industry knowing? MIND BLOWING) At least not the friends I feel comfortable texting at 11pm on a Sunday night. Then last night I was at Barnes and Noble (I still go to book stores and freaking love it, how novel.) and a friend picked up a Torchwood book and just handed it to me, no words, just handed it to me. I grinned and did a happy dance in my head and she just shook her head with a smile.
So this is my place to completely geek out because I'm not always with friends who understand why I get excited about the new Torchwood episode or the fact there are TWO shows about fairy tales this season on TV (Grimm which starts October 28, this Friday, which includes writers from Buffy, Angel and X-Files, and Once Upon a Time who has Jane Espenson who wrote for Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Torchwood: Miracle Day AND Gilmore Girls AND co-created Warehouse 13, among others, in other words, the woman who's career I would love to have.) To post things I find intresting or fun or just squee worthy. Rumors, book and comic reviews, movie and game announcements, my experiences at cons. My background is in English Lit and I love to write so this is also an outlet for that(my creative-ness isn't always following me to the end of a story I write)
Things I typically geek out about:
-Doctor Who
-Torchwood (two seperate things. Yes I have been to Gallifrey One the almost completely Dr Who Con in LA. I live in Jersey. I've watched Dr. Who with my brother since 1989. I was 4. That's commitment.)
-New books
-Cool tech
-World of Warcraft expansions
-Warehouse 13
-Eureka
-Almost anything in the Whendonverse.
-Music
-Castle
-Comics
-New stuff.
-Totally unrelated things I can't think of at the moment.
-Felicia Day
-Wil Wheaton
-Fun college courses (such as Russian History 1901-1921 and The History of Children's Literature)
So this is my place to geek out and I hope you join me.
Enjoy.

Can I also say I think this is my first every completely public blog? Weird.
