A little over nine months ago, I gave birth to my first kid. We’ll call him Baby K, or BK for short. Everyone says having kids is hard. You don’t get to do the things you used to like to do. You live your whole life for your kid. That’s pretty much true. Before BK, … Continue reading How My Life Has Changed Since Becoming a Mother
It’s pretty obvious that comic books are a huge part of my life. They influence the clothes I wear, what I do with my precious free time, and the places I go. However, my whole life hasn’t really been steeped in comic books. I remember my very first comics when I was around 5 years … Continue reading How I Got Into Comic Books…Again
It’s time for a heartwarming one shot in Amazing X-Men, especially since the mutants just saved Canada by battling my least favorite comic book monster – the Wendigo. These issues heavily featured Northstar, who is one of the very first openly gay comic book superheros (ever!). Northstar joins the faculty of the Jean Grey School … Continue reading Amazing X-Men #13 Review

First and foremost, I’m going to my local community college where I got my nursing degree, and signing up for classes again for the network administration program! I’m really excited and I already have some classes completed for it, so it will … Continue reading I Finally Started Streaming on Twitch
*Quick Announcement* Before I get into the main point of this post, I have a few announcements to make. I’m pretty much going to change the format of this blog. In the past I’ve talked about the difference between “bloggy” posts and journalistic articles (or wannabe journalistic articles). Since I’m writing for Real Otaku Gamer … Continue reading Help Me Get Back Into the New 52
Sorry I’ve been a little silent lately. I spent the weekend in Lexington, KY for Lexington Toy and Comic Con. It was awesome and the first convention I’d ever gone to. Unfortunately, since I’m a night shift worker, I had trouble sleeping at night after being up all day. Because of that, I pretty much … Continue reading What’s Going On
X-Factor is one of my new must-read series out of the All-New Marvel NOW! reboots. I love how this ragtag team is shaping up, along with the introduction of some other shady mutants who are new to me. I’m impressed by how genuine Polaris, Quicksilver, and Gambit are. They know who they are and they … Continue reading All-New X-Factor #2 Review
