I also have issues with some actors playing multiple superheroes (Ryan Renyolds as Green Lantern and Deadpool?! And The Human Torch is also Captain America?! Argh!), but I digress. I could talk about comics all day. Bet you didn’t know that about me!

Day six, done.

Saturday:

Started moving boxes… Exhausted.

Sunday, not a Patriots or Giants tee. It’s Punchline!

Can’t wait to be done with this move, lol.

Anyway, here’s my fabulous shirt bought in college from eBay:

Loafy demanded attention while I was trying to snag a photo, so here’s her fuzzy belly:

Fuzzy little monster.

Right now (as you’ll hear more about later), Joe and I are packing to move, so some of these you have seen before, I’m guessing most of them you have not.

So here’s tshirt number one:

(You can also view these on my Instagram feed. Since I take these in a mirror, I’ll flip them before posting them on my blog, but they will be mirror images on my Instagram feed).

And, simply because this amused me, I wanted to share that Cleverbot wants to marry me (I’m the black type, Cleverbot is the blue).

Hilarious.

There are reenactments with toys, dolls, animations, Toy Story figures, salt shakers, pets – almost anything you can imagine. And, ta-da! You can watch the entire film, right here.

(Pause for getting popcorn…)

(Dear girl at 1:26, me too. Me too.)

The broadcasting team at Liberty Middle School in Madison, Alabama, put together this incredibly powerful video called “I’m Human.” The video features students, faculty, and staff standing against a wall, each holding up a sign that tells you how they’re different. But one thing is the same- they’re all human.

Episode two starts out at the Long Beach Aquarium of the Pacific. The spotlight challenge is to work in groups of two, find fish and be inspired. (there is no foundation challenge, unlike last week)

As a twist, Brea gets to choose which team she’s on, meaning her team has three members. She joins Sue and Rayce.
Another twist? The models will be submerged in water the day of the showcase, so the makeup must be waterproof.

(Someone do an octopus-style, please!! I would love to see tentacles or something similar to a jellyfish popping out of the model’s head.) But, I also foresee some makeup mishaps. What would this show be without some mishaps?

The teams choose their fishy inspirations. Nix and Jerry use a turtle as their inspiration. Oh man, teenage mutant ninja turtle power!
Ian and Rj go for a zebra shark. A lawyer zebra shark…
Beki and Miranda choose the same Leafy Sea Dragon that Brea, Sue and Rayce picked. They also admit that they’ve never designed something for water before, so rather than focus on paint, they’re focusing on fabric that will sway and move in water. Then, they turn their face into a duck/chicken hybrid. Oh man, I foresee a hot mess!

Turtleman looks kinda exactly like a turtle… I mean, great detail, but it’s a true turtle face, which looks like a cartoon already

As is usual with these types of shows, there is always a group that clashes. So far Beki and Miranda are cat fighting about their design. Miranda is the youngest on the show (21), and Beki seems to be questioning what she could possibly know at her age. Obviously she knows something because she’s on the show.
Miranda seems to want to work together, but Beki keeps arguing with her. Get over it girl. You don’t have to like her, but if you want to be safe you need to work together.

They decide to work together (good), and I was pretty interested to see their final design. They seemed to mend their differences enough where they were able to work together and bring out a fairly interesting looking creature.

Creatures designed by: Ian and RJ; Beki and Miranda; Athena and Heather; Sue, Rayce , and Brea; Nix and Jerry; Tara and Matt

Finally the creations go to the water. Tara and Matt’s design looks phenomenal. The fabric they picked to cover the seams looks amazing and resembles scales really well.

Beki and Miranda’s creation still had a duckface, but the details flowed really well in the water.

The turtle was a huge failure. The choices of colors were comical, the shell detached in water. The paint wasn’t waterproof, and the model had a tough time breathing. I really wanted to toss him a purple mask and some nunchucks and beg him to yell “cowabunga!”

Athena and Heather’s lion fish was actually really impressive, and their model really played the part. Athena is a body painter by trade and she did a fabulous job. However, I do believe their model helped them get better scores, not that I believe they shouldn’t have had high scores.

(I only have a pic of him in the water)

I was not impressed by Brea, Rayce, and Sue’s design. Not at all.

(I also only have this one in the water)

And last but not least, we have our lawyer zebra shark. I like RJ and Ian, but this wasn’t well thought out. They didn’t take into account the clothing and how it would shift and move in the water, and they made the fin way too high on the model’s neck. But, it was a nice paint job.

Spoilers are under the jump.

Tara and Matt were the top two, which was totally deserved. They worked phenomenally together, had the best overall design, and the best paint job. Matt won overall, because the design and casting were done by him. Well deserved! (and go Tara for being in the tops both weeks!)

Obviously Nix and Jerry were the bottom two, and I’m sad to say that Nix was sent home. I’ll miss that mustache. He has a fantastic mustache. Personally, I’d prefer Jerry to go and Nix to stay, but we’ll see if Jerry does well the next few weeks.

Previews for next week showcase fully-nude models. Can’t wait!

It took me about a month to decide what I would do, which ended with me spending it on a video game for Joe, shoes for me, heating pad for my cats (I swear it’s not as weird as it sounds), and a movie. Yeah, got all that for $46.

My favorite item is the shoes. I found them on Amazon, in my size, and was geeked when I realized they were only $25! Betsey Johnson shoes for only $25? Crazy!

They’re a cotton print, with a metallic toe. I don’t know what I was expecting when I ordered them, but I’m really excited they fit. I have quite large feet, so sometimes shoes that are my size end up being a little too snug. And having never owned anything Betsey before, I didn’t know what to expect. But have no fear! If you’re in the market for anything Betsey and unsure of shoe sizing, they run pretty true-to-size.

The best part of the day has to be that black blur you see in the background of the above photo. Joe and I have been busy packing and sorting (it’s a long story, I’ll tell you all about it later), and some of the boxes are banana boxes. If you know anything about these boxes, it’s that they have these holes cut into them for ventilation. So, even though we can use them, I didn’t want the cats to climb in them and make a mess or anything, so I decided to toss a blanket over the hole.

Totally fixed the problem, right?

Wrong. Ruckus still climbed on the box, sank into the hole and has been sleeping there for three hours.

That’s my girl
