That was for some of my friends; if you don't know what I am talking about, then either you don't love me and I don't love you, or you have never seen the outtakes from Serenity. It starred Nathan Fillion, who is very cool, as was the rest of the cast. Serenity is pretty much a futuristic western movie that was made to conclude the TV series Firefly, which was sadly cut short before its time :(

So I realize that it has been a while (yet again) since my last post, so I will try to catch you up on a few things that have been going on in my life. Hopefully you will find them int'resting.
I have started watching the show Castle, which also stars Nathan Fillion, about author Richard Castle. Castle has been following around a lady police-cop detective named Kate Beckett (who, I might add, is not too bad on the ol' eyeballs) to get ideas for his novels, which are murder-mysteries. His character is super smart, but mostly hilarious. He has also inadvertently become one of my new heroes. Good for him.
I also realized that my last blog left out a few '80s-isms that simply MUST be mentioned. I made it very clear that I could not get to everything that I wanted to get to concerning the '80s, but I gotta give a shout-out to Fieros and Hall and Oates.
The first time I saw this, my mind exploded. And I died. Yet I came to life again, and was more alive than ever. True story. |
Christmas was good, I got a lot of neat stuff, and more importantly got to see my brother-in-law and sister, whom I miss. Now I am back in school, and I think that classes are going to be good this year.
In addition to this, I keep thinking about how much I have changed the last couple of years. I have indeed changed a bit, that's for sure... I used to be better at stuff, like reading and understanding crap. Now I know more stuff, and I comprehend some things better, but it's hard for me to relate a lot of the stuff that I think I understand. I also would say that in some areas I have changed for the better, but I wonder what my younger self would think of me now. Actually, he might not like me a lot, come to think of it... Who knows? Anyway, I can't help but think of Kate Beaton right now, and I like excuses to put her comics in my blog because they are funny. Here is a good one.
I guess life used to be a bit simpler back then; not that it's super complicated at the moment, but I guess there are some biggish decisions coming up, like maybe what on earth to do with my life. Maybe I'll race tigers. Not unlike He-Man. That sounds fulfilling... Why couldn't Past Tommy have had some ambition or direction? Stupid jerk... If Steve Irwin hadn't been maliciously... passed away. If he hadn't passed away is what I mean; then maybe I would have still wanted to work with animals in some way. Or if maybe there had been a career in watching Ninja Turtles and eating Cheetos. Whatever it was I did as a kid. I don't know. Maybe I haven't changed at all. That's scary.
You could be a professional reviewer! Like a movie critique or a dude that evaluates restaurants and writes about them. You have a nice, easy to read writing style and you enjoy movies, TV, and fine dining so that might be fun. I know plenty of people that have blogs about movies or restaurants and they are sponsored or will get free meals or movie tickets, sounds like a sweet deal. Whatever you do, just have fun with it and you'll do great!
ReplyDeleteAww, Brandon, nicely said! Tommy, I know whatever you decide to do, you will be very good at it, and more than likely, the best!
ReplyDeleteOh Mom, you're such a mom :) And thanks, Brandon buddy. You are a nice man with delightful ideas.
