Diary of a Fangirl: Meeting Norman Reedus

Today’s guest post is from Kyle: Meeting Norman Reedus The first time I met Norman was at Wizard Chicago. He was only there Saturday and Sunday due to filming The Walking Dead, so you can imagine his lines for photo ops and autographs were massive.I got in line Saturday for autographs and ended up leaving […]

Diary of a Fangirl: Hostess Twinkies and Zingers

So, it’s pretty official–the Hostess company is going out of business. I went to several stores and gas stations today (five, to be exact.  Five was my limit), and at the last one, I found no Twinkies, but a package of Hostess Zingers–like a Twinkie, but with a yellow, vanilla frosting on top.  After a […]

Diary of a Fangirl: The Walking Dead

Just started season two of The Walking Dead, and I have to say that while I do like it, it also makes me laugh inappropriately, and some of the characters really do irk me. My favorites thus far are Daryl (shocking, I know) and Shane (though I vaguely know of his fate.  Wah).  Anyway, the […]

Diary of a Fangirl: We Will Always Love Whitney Houston

I actually heard about this tribute on CBS on a fluke–I saw a commercial for it on Elementary, the only show I watch on the station.  Good thing I did, otherwise I would have missed this. Just dotted down some thoughts as I watched. Halle Berry is up first.  She’s fairly emotional right now.  Didn’t […]

Diary of a Fangirl: People’s Choice Awards

So, I’m filling out the form for The People’s Choice Awards, and here are my answers: Favorite Movie: The Dark Knight Rises, hands down.  It was brilliant, beautiful, and 98% perfect [we should have heard the Joker’s laughter coming from a darkened cell as a tribute to Ledger’s major contribution to the series].  It may […]

Diary of a Fangirl: People’s Most Sexiest Man Alive

So, the news broke about a week ago that Channing Tatum was named the sexiest man alive this year in People magazine.  While it’s true–I think Channing did a damn fine job acting out his previous career in “Magic Mike,” I don’t think I’d say he was the sexiest man of the year.  Well, in […]

Diary of a Fangirl: Skyfall

This weekend I got to see “Skyfall.” I grew up watching Bond.  James Bond.  As a girl with my mom, who watched it when she was a kid.  This franchise has been ongoing for the last fifty years, and that is tremendous. I will admit that, like many people, I have my “favorite” Bonds, and […]
