I hate to admit it but I was wrong. I was one of those people who didn’t believe Adrianne Palicki would make a great Wonder Woman. I hated the teaser images with Palicki in costume. I didn’t believe Wonder Woman would translate well on TV without being corny and campy (sorry, Lynda Carter fans). I was wrong. Thanks to the magic of the Internet, I saw the unaired Wonder Woman pilot and I realized that I was so wrong.

My biggest gripe about the pilot during production was the costume. When I saw the first images of Palicki donning the Wonder Woman costume, I felt so much hate for it. I hated how it was all shiny and not Wonder Woman-y enough. I still didn’t like it when I saw the pilot but it actually looked good in some of the action scenes. I still have so much hate for the tiara, though.

It’s safe to say that most of us have had our hearts broken. I’m not talking about your parents telling you that you’re a big mistake or your friend bailing out on you that one time when there was a raid in that whore house and you were too drunk to make a run for it. No, I’m talking about failed romantic relationships and brutal rejections. It’s a very confusing experience, this heartbreak. This is me trying to make sense of it all.

Well, since my baby left me, I found a new place to dwell. It’s down at the
end of Lonely Street, at Heartbreak Hotel. *stab, stab, cut, cut*

Stage 1: Denial

Someone just broke your heart and you’re like “THIS IS NOT HAPPENING.” You keep telling yourself that this is just a hiccup in your fairy tale romance and it will pass. It’s surreal at first, but the cold hard truth will eventually find its way into your head. It’s over. The initial shock kicks in. It’s over.

Stage 2: Anger

You’re now in a constant “WTF?!” mood. Still trying to figure out what’s happening, you’re like a rabid dog who just lost its chew toy. You’re going to bark at everything. You’re going to bite everything. Your sole purpose in life right now is to write angry emails, post rage-filled Facebook status messages and Twitter updates, draw devil horns on people’s photos and kick puppies IN THE FACE. Casualties: Your friends, your family, your dog and countless innocent Internet bystanders.

I have to admit, I’m not a big fan of Dreamworks animated features. Sure, I enjoyed Ice Age and Shrek the first time I saw them, but it got old fast. Whenever there’s a new animated movie from Dreamworks, I go “MEH”, except when I heard about Monsters vs. Aliens. If you know me or if you’ve read my blog before, you’d know that a movie with a title like that will totally get my attention. It’s a complete joy to hear the voices of Jack Bauer, Dr. House, George Oscar Bluth, that creepy guy from The Office, and Stephen frickin’ Colbert working together to bring the noise. The noise of LOLs. Reese Witherspoon, Seth Rogen, and INSECTOSAURUS do their part too. The plot is as simple as the title, but it’s all about the kinetic energy between the actors and the deliciously funny gags. All in all, it’s just a fun movie that I will definitely enjoy seeing over and over again.

It’s another one of those things.

I’ve stayed away from the Facebook “25 Random Things About Me” meme long enough. I’ve been tagged recently by 3 people and I guess it’s time that I do the meme… on Baddieverse. HIGH FIVE! But yeah, I’ll post this on Facebook too because I feel like I’m cheating or something.

By some strange cosmic Internet law, participants of this meme are required to list 25 random things about them. Since this is Love Month, I’m putting a little twist on this meme that I hope will not anger the Internet gods. Ladies and gentlemen, here are 25 things THAT I LOVE:

1. The Internet. Seriously, I don’t think I can last a day without going online. Sometimes, I don’t even do stuff. I just open a random blog or Google, I look at it, then I go offline. Crazy.

2. The Quiet. No, not the movie (although I have a DVD of it because I love it). I’m talking about “quiet time” or “meditation time” or “EVERYBODY SHUT THE FUCK UP! time”. I just want a few minutes per day of silence. When I’m alone, I am King.

3. Comics. I don’t need to explain.

4. 2-disc DVDs. I find a certain charm in watching DVD extras. There are certain cases where I like the extras more than the movie itself. *cough*Daredevil*cough*

5. Fucker, my RAV4. He’s my silent partner. My wing man. And as weird as it may sound, my friend.
