State of the Monkey and a couple Thor vid recs

[jetpack_monkey]

Hello friends! Been a busy busy couple of weeks. I've been writing my very last review for Classic-Horror.com, catching up on this Game of Thrones thing (isn't Tyrion awesome? He's totally awesome) and hugging my new iPad and calling it Acquanetta. Because that's its name.

I watched the entire first season of New Girl. At first it was this thing I did and I didn't know why. I didn't like the title character and the supporting cast was marginally interesting. But I kept watching. And eventually I found that I loved the show and I really liked all the characters, even the main character. Looking forward to Season 2.

Game of Thrones owns my soul. It is so amazing. However, unlike New Girl, I'm sharing the experience with echan , so it's kind of slow-going. I am only up to episode 8 of Season 1. That said, I am reading the books at the same time and may eventually surpass my place in the series. I'm up to roughly episode five in the first book.

I have abandoned my planned Vividcon Premiere. I'll be whipping up something else instead, hopefully.

Going to the Stanley Cup Final Game 4 on Wednesday thanks to a raffle at work. Hoping to get into hockey through the experience.

Some awesome Thor vids that I have loved:

Thanks for the rec!

Game of Thrones is AMAZING. GRRM does not pull any punches.

Tyrion is totally awesome. I've only seen s1 so far; Jason wants to finish reading the second book before we watch any more but I am impatient because it's just so good.

Yay for vid recs, I'm going to go check those out :)

Tyrion!!! Loooove him. I'm so glad you're continuing to watch and reading the books!

I felt the same about New Girl although I liked Jess from the beginning.

Good luck on your Premiere! We should vid together at some point...I will jealously envy your Kings game experience. I can't believe I'm saying that about hockey!

I'm still trying to slog through Parks and Rec. It's haaaaard. Season 1 is so baaad. I just keep telling myself that it's going to get better. It has to!

P&R gets SO MUCH BETTER. About 5 eps into S2, it REALLY takes off and is wonderful. :)

Like New Girl, Parks & Rec just suddenly BOOM gets amazing.
