Magneto + Rochester = Hottness

Michael Fassbender 300 Signed Photo GA CertifiedOk, ok. I know! I need to stop obsessing over Michael Fassbender. But with X-Men: First Class and Jane Eyre both in theaters right now, can you really blame me? My friend Eastwood and I saw X-Men on opening night. It was really good. Surprisingly good. I say that because I didn't particularly love the first three. (I know what you're thinking. Two girls voluntarily seeing a comic book movie? What? Shocking I know.) Eastwood wanted to see it because she is currently in lurve with Kevin Bacon (go figure). I wanted to see it for one obvious reason. Duh.
I saw Jane Eyre today. It was beautiful. Truly. I had a really hard time staying still in my seat throughout the movie. I really just wanted to throw myself at the screen. My hope being that I could toss myself into Mr. Rochester's lap. Sigh. If ever there were an actor born for a role, it's Fassbender for Rochester. This movie made my little fangirl heart very happy! Ok. Now I'll stop.
P.S. The picture at the top isn't related to X-Men or Jane Eyre. But it is Michael (in 300)... and he's shirtless. Heh.

Like a Virgin. Hey!

The Rocky Horror Picture Show Poster 27x40 Tim Curry Susan Sarandon Barry BostwickTonight I saw The Rocky Horror Picture Show for the first time with audience partici... -pation! I was a virgin. But no longer! Well, actually, (according to a veteran fan) I was what's known as a "masturbater", meaning I had seen the movie before but only on my own. Dirty. I love it! Needless to say I will be seeing Rocky Horror again... but I won't be alone. As if the screaming fans and naughty songs weren't enough, Bones totally got manhandled! She was picked up off the ground and held against another (much larger) woman's bosom. ( Uh, the woman was larger, not her bosom. Well? Maybe. Nevermind. I don't want to think about it.) Good times.

Son of a.....

Son Of A Bad Man (EP)What have you been doing with yourself today? I talked to a rock star. Well. Tweeted actually, but whatever! The drummer from Son Of A Bad Man messaged me. It kinda made my whole month! So yeah, Imma have to add SoaBM to my list of people to be stalked. ( Btw I mean stalk in a totally harmless and completely non -illegal and/or threatening manner!) So right now it's just them and FF5. I've seen FF5 seven times in concert so I'd say that it's going pretty well on that front. Just gotta add SoaBM to my to-do list.

Oh! I found a picture of them! It's kinda grainy but whatever! It has the lead singer Shawn Fisher, the drummer Brad Moxey and some random photographer in it! And a very large and slightly annoyed looking security guard.

Rockville

I spent nine hours outside yesterday, which is like unheard of for me. But I had very good reason to do so. Six great reasons actually. Son of a Bad Man, HalestormSkillet, Theory of a Deadman, My Darkest Days, and Seether to be exact. It was awesome! There were only three things that happened that kept the day from being truly epic. 1. My camera died mid-concert. Sigh. 2. I, sorta, elbowed my bestie Bones in the face. (Ooops! I told you I thrash hardcore.) 3. Seether didn't play Careless Whisper! WTF! Grrr. Oh well. I left the park with a My Darkest Day tee, a signed Halestorm cd, and an insane sunburn. So all in all a awesome day. Could have been a super day but, no... I'm looking at you Seether! Way to bring the party down. Jk. But seriously.

Will Work For Days Off

Help Wanted Sign, 9" x 12"So I've learned something recently. Apparently being unemployed means you are your friends and family's personal bitch. I have run more errands and "helped out" more since my store closed then I can stand to think about. (I was well trained as a child, so now as an adult I can't tell anyone I care about no.) I never thought I'd be so eager to get another job, but hell, if it means getting to run my own life again I'll work anywhere!

Deaf in One Ear

Family Force Five (5) FF5 Mens T Shirt - Dance or Die With A Vengance ImageAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh! Ahem. Sorry about that. I'm still coming down from my concert high. No, Mom, no drugs or alcohol involved, just good ole adrenaline! (The entire time FF5 was on stage, I swear I couldn't feel my face. I wonder if that's normal? Hmmm.) Anyway...  from the ringing in one ear, my complete lack of voice, and the bruises that now cover my body - I'd say I had a good time! I always feel kinda bad for the people who choose to stand near me though. Cause I thrash hardcore. And they are just collateral damage. I had a short dude on one side, who wouldn't back the hell up, so the elbows (my elbows) he kept catching were his own fault. On my other side I had a giant wall of a man. He did not move. (Like at all. It was almost creepy.) I lost count of all the times I bounced off of him. But he never flinched. Just total stoneface. (I'm saying, I could hang with that dude. I like my men tall, dark, and immovable.) The opening bands were alright, Since Forever was the best IMHO. But really they were just filling time till my band came out. I may add a video or two later. It kinda depends on if Blogger want's to be cooperative or not. Or (more importantly) if I feel lazy or not.

Freedom!

The Official Couch-Potato HandbookThis feels so strange. My store closed on Monday and since then.... I've just been off. For the past four years I've worked  for the same company and now it's done. I mean obviously I've had days off. But this feels different, it's just too weird. Days off are great, but in the back of your head, you know you have to go to work the next day. (Or in a few days or whenever.) But with my store just gone, it's like a semi-permanent vacation. And I am so going to milk this! I'll finally have the time for all that sitting around I've missed!

Btw, Tourantula is fast approaching! (It's only days away!) Aaaaahhhhhhhh!!! So excited! I'm going to be so very very broke by then but who cares?! That's why I bought my tickets in advance! And to add to my Family Force 5 frenzy (say that five times fast! whoo), their third album (III) is going to be released this summer! Aside from being a jobless nub, these next few weeks are looking awesome! Please excuse my excessive use of exclamation points. (!!!!!!!)
