Happy Geek Patrick's Day (and Pi Day)

Today is the day, isn't it? 

Today is St. Paddy's day and the day we all pretend to be Irish. 

I may only be adopted Irish, but I am a geek, so today I felt the need to combine the two together.

So here are all the Geeky St. Patrick's day pictures I could find!

Irish... Elvish... it's close enough

But for real, to all those out there who are genuinely celebrating today, I wish you all the best. 

And to those out there who just want to get drunk on green beer, have a blast, but remember to be safe

aaaand since I totally forgot about Pi Day on the weekend, here are some cutie pictures that I've been saving for just such a sweet occasion

The Best Star Wars Christmas Gift EVER!!!

I love Star Wars, as you know, but my family thinks that's strange.

I'm pretty sure they think it's a phase or something.

When I say proudly that I'm a geek, they look at me in horror and ask why I would call my self such, as if I had just called myself something horrible. I laugh and try to explain it, but I don't think they get it still.

Don't get me wrong, they're always encouraging of my baking and sewing, my love of reading and writing, they just don't get Star Wars. I can understand that. There are a lot of things I don't get about them.

As such, I've never received a Star Wars gift at Christmas...

UNTIL NOW!

My 6 year old niece, with the help of my sister, made me these for Christmas! Aren't they fantastic!!

Best Star Wars Gift EVER!!!!

Thanks guys! I love them soooo much!

May The 4th Be With You

Star Wars Day is here again! YAY!

So, what am I going to do about it? 

Well, besides dressing in Star Wars stuff (t-shirt, underwear, socks, hoodie), I'm planning to watch at least one of the movies, plan out some more SW bags or dresses, peruse some SW websites, of course Talk SW to at least a few people, and blog.

I've been saving some Star Wars content for this day for a little while now. Let's start with this awesome deleted scene

I love the tension between the 2 of them.  Man, if Han Solo offered to warm me up, I don't think I could say no!

These next pictures are from an Ad agency, BleuBlachRouge, in Montreal, for a Star Wars exhibit! If I had known (and not been in South Korea) I might have hopped on a bus and gone! 

I love how they've build each character! These artists really know what they're doing!

How about some Star Wars statistics? 

I love the little Thrawn head in the last one! Also, number of limbs lost! Too funny!

Here are some random Star Wars photos that I've had kicking around and wanting to post.

Remember, the 4th will be with you; always.

Thanks to Rudimentary My Dear, Geek Art, The Mary Sue, and all those great Star Wars Tumblrs. The 4th is strong with you!
