Junk Gypsy and Hippie Jesus

My current obsession has turned to Junk Gypsy on the GAC channel. I don't know if there are any of my friends that share my passion, all I know is that I need a chandelier with gold glitter tipped white feathers on it.

Because my apartment would totally rock that.

I must confess I lost the plot for a minute there last month. A lot happened in my personal life, stuff I cannot divulge just yet but the good news is that I get to teach little kids about Art! I would love to be able to go all Bob Ross on them, showing the happy little trees, but alas, you have to start with the basics of art and life first. Like the colors of the Rainbow, for instance. Once that is nailed down, I can start on the primary, secondary and tertiary colors. If I see them get bored quickly, there's always an episode of Bob's I can put on. It mellows the crowd down quickly.

"Let's put a...a little river here.... just a little happy brook... yeah, I like that..."

hippie Jesus.

Seriously, that man is a perfect example of Creatio Ex Nihilo. Although, I could always turn it around and put the Epic Rap Battles of History spin on the classes.

Being a part time teacher also frees up a few days that I can dedicate in whole to my jewelry making stuff... which you will see... hopefully on Wednesday. (i say that a lot, don't i?)

Geek Tuesdays

OMG IT'S GEEK TUESDAYS.

AND OMG IT'S A BORG MINI FRIDGE.

The Borg is my favorite villain(s)(can I say that they are plural or singular because they are one in many...) in the Star Trek 'verse. The mechanical zombie appearance, the drones, the Borg Queen, Locutus/Jean-luc, the list goes on. The fact that the Cube has been downsized to a mini fridge just enhances my love for them. Why do I love it so? Because resistance is futile. That's why. If you read down the comment section of the page someone had the brilliant idea of creating a microwave to look like a Replicator.

That was also the time when a lot of people were like "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY". ThinkGeek needs to get on the ball on this one, just sayin'.

For those in the Geekdom that don't have the sincere appreciation of Star Trek and its glory, you can purchase the Rubik's Cube Mini Fridge which is just as nerdy and just as awesome.

If, for some reason, my kids don't want to get into Star Trek (but that's ridiculous, why wouldn't they?) they can switch over to some other means of Nerd. Which is fine, my kids are nerds, they really don't have a choice - this is genetics after all.... *sarcasm implied, sorta* But I put it to you, when your four year-old asks you if you would like "Tea, Earl Grey, Hot, Mommy?" just like Captain Picard takes his, is she a nerd-in-training?

I think so.
