To Date or Not to Date

Why is it as soon as you really start loving the single life you find yourself swimming in guys? I'm loving where I am in life, and feel bad about meeting nice guys - I just don't want to be tied down!

Also, I really should come with a warning label for guys.





on the upside, met a fun guy dancing saturday night. we have a motorcycle/ice cream date tomorrow. yum. hopefully just casual fun.

Kristin FTW

Hey kids! So if you guys know who the Fragdolls are, you may know there's a casting call going on. Some of the most talented women from across the country are lining up to become the next Frag Doll! ok, /dramatics. A good friend of mine was in the running, but didn't make it to the next stage, which is super sad cause she's got tons of experience and spanks kids hard FPS style! I know this from experience, too, we took 4th place at a tourney at PAX a few years back kicking butt in Halo 2, and made super awesome Gears of War videos(1 & 2) when we were playing that hardcore.



So here's the thing. You know how you can write people in on ballots? Well, we're gonna e-mail the awesome people at UbiSoft and see if they'd consider writing Kristin in, because the world can always use one more seriously kick-ass female showing people whats up in gaming. And speaking of writing in ballots, make sure to write me in for "ruler of the universe" when that election comes around! I will make our universe a Raptor-free place!


So here's the letter to copy and paste to make it easy on you:

Dear Sir and Madam's,

I'm sending you this letter to pledge my support for Kristin Reilly's candidacy in the Frag Dolls Casting Finals.

I believe that Kristin's experience in the following would make her a fantastic addition to the Frag Dolls team:

- Two years in the professional gaming circuit
- Great gaming skills
- Marketing/Community Management/Promotions in the video game and hardware industry
- Hundreds of hours of on-camera time and behind the scenes production work
- Huge repertoire of industry events attended

Kristin Reilly is definitive Frag Doll material and I respectfully request that she be reconsidered for the Frag Doll Casting Finals.

Sincerely,

[Name]



Thanks for your help!
You can email this to UbiSoft at fragdolls@ubisoft.com
or tweet @Fragdolls @Ubisoft @batgirl "Kristin Reilly ftw!"

And be sure to stop by the Fragdoll website to give mad props to all the FD canidates, cause they rock my socks off!

Weird Dreams

...because mine are insane

(before reading, NO, i do not do drugs before bed, nor have i EVER done them)

Last Night: We were at easter breakfast with extended family, and i threw a tantrum because my sisters' friend ate my cherry-flavored rice pudding. Then, a kitten died, and i cried a lot. But then my mom had a surprise, and me and a bunch of random people went into a room and got lap dances from "models". Mine was a fat doctor with one green eye, and a really big brown eye. And I accidentally spit out my gum on his shoulder. (i have no idea wtf rice pudding is)

A few months ago, I dreamt we were being attacked by zombies, and to fend them off, we went to the second story of our house for the upper advantage. We took the doors off the hinges to use for cover, but then there were zombie kittens in my room, so I had to use tupperware to catch and contain them, cause I felt bad about killing them.


Also, myspace is so annoying.

Summer Time

So my first day of summer that i'm finally feeling better. YAY!

So first things, ep. 2 of my video blog launched. I'm pretty excited that there will be a second season for Dollhouse! Good Fox!

Also, Im getting my game on like mad! Been playing Castle Crashers all morning, it's amazing. Now I'm going through all the random games on my shelves I've barely played. Right now it's Spidey: Web of Shadows. LOL. It's hella corny, I'm quite amused. I think there may be a little WoW later in the cards, too. My poor Pally has been neglected lately. = (

Litany Against Fear

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.




Less than 2 weeks from graduation with TWO degrees. I have no job, no home, no prospects, nothing but a dream to start a life as a designer in Seattle. Fear is the mind-killer.


At least I can make amazing brownies from scratch.

Text Convo Between My Father and I

[Me] Thanks. I'm like addicted to NCIS now. Also, im driving a chevy impala. It's spiffy.

[Dad] Ncis rocks! Impala's are for 40 year olds!

My Lovlies.

So I've been decorating my apartment, getting things ready to play hostess at my graduation, and decided I was a bad mommy for not having any pictures of my kids around. So we had a mini photo shoot. Sake wanted to be in more pictures than just hers, apparently.

Also, I finally took my car in to get fixed and got a rental. It's a 2009 Chevy Impala, and it's kinda fun. It goes vroom vroom! (vs. my '99 stick shift Honda CRV, which i still love dearly)
