I'm starting to think I need to learn something

Its dream time again (apologies in advance). This one I don't remember as much of it but I know with 100% certainty I was back in school.  Like I am the me I am now but also in college classes. 

I am not sure where it began but I remember campus was HUGE and I was walking all over it.  It was very futuristic looking.  Lots of glass buildings, different shapes and angles, VERY clean.  I was in multiple classes but I only really remember one or two.  

It was a group/lab type class.  I was in a group with 3 others (all guys).  One was my work bestie, the other was my newer TALL counterpart whom I am becoming fairly close with (these two refer to themselves as the Italian duo or something haha), and one other guy.  The other guy is like phasing in and out between my husbands operations counterpart at his work and David Tennant (I know my weird @$$ brain!). 

I remember going to this class multiple times.  I always sat across from work bestie and next to the phasing dude.  I think it was a marketing class and the phasing guy was pissing me off because he wouldn't let us get a word in.  

There was another class I was in with most of them except phasing guy was replaced with another male coworker who used to be my manager, I think I usually refer to him as frat guy lol.  We didn't have assigned seats but it was "known" where everyone sat.  One day I was a little late and someone took my place.  Work bestie kept looking back at me over his shoulder looking worried and upset.  There was a test...it was really weird. 

Once it ended I was trying to get out as soon as possible but I didn't have my shoes on (WTF) and was struggling trying to get them on and leave qucikly. 

The next class was the one with phasing dude.  My spot was open but before I could sit across from bestie he pulled me down between him and Tall Counterpart.  This is when I realized we were sitting on the floor around a rectangular table for this class.  

So I sat between them while our phasing friend stayed as David Tennant for a while talking about, I $hit you not, "Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey...stuff".  I haven't watched that particular episode in over two years...WTF. 

Anyways The professor is talking and asked me if I wanted to move to my normal spot. Bestie put his arm around me, pulled me closer, and said "no, she belongs right here between us".  Ummmmm what?!?

The rest of the class is blurry but I distinctly remember bestie making sure some part of me was touching him (not in a sexual or oogie way).  I was writing something and phasing friend tried to touch my arm across the table. Tall counterpart blocked him and Bestie tightened his arm around me and......growled. 

That's where it ended....my subconscious is clearly on drugs!  I feel like there are meanings in all these dreams but I am too exhausted to even try and analyze them. 

It's a 10 and a half...

It begins in a fight for our lives!  We are running, so much running through a Sci-Fi style city/space port.  I mean full speed sprinting for me...I gots the tiny legs.  I can hear people yelling all around me but I honestly don't know who I am with. 

I know I am with a group but we are fleeing from some angry jerks so they are pushing/pulling me along, just short of picking me up and running with me because I'm just not as fast.  My vision is starting to tunnel, my chest is burning, and I don't think I can go anymore.  Finally we come around the bend and fling ourselves through an open door.  Its a ship and we are immediately preparing for take-off.  As the door slams we can hear the angry screams and banging from our pursuers. 

I collapse on the cool grated floor out of breath.  As my vision begins to clear I can finally take in my surroundings.  It's a bright, almost sterile room.  Everything is basically silver toned.  Its not familiar but it still feels safe, almost like home.  All I can think about is I want a nap and a shower and start to close my eyes.  Suddenly a head of brown hair pops into view and asks in the most chipper voice, why I am laying on the floor.

The hair frames a shadowed familiar face but I can't quite place him.  He helps me up and says something about humans sleeping in the strangest places which makes me stop and try to remember something.  I take in the rest of my shipmates, 7 total.  They all feel like friends but I can't make out their faces.

The one that helped me up says something about needing to go home now because that's where the device is hidden.   

We are running again, this time at sunset through a ravaged town.  The ground is red dirt, the buildings are tattered from a war we seemed to have landed in the middle of.  My legs are burning but my new friend is basically dragging me behind him.  We've lost our friends, they've all been captured and we are trying our best not to be captured also.  We can see the open door, we are so close to escaping when pain blossoms in my back and I fall to my knees on the ground.  

I've been shot, I'm yelling for him to leave me but he wont.  He tries to pick me up but I am in so much pain I can't help and keep falling.  The world goes black.  I wake up on a hay mattress to someone caressing my face and softly saying they are sorry.  I open my eyes and it's night time so not much light, I can't focus but I know its my friend talking to me.  I think he's crying.  I tried to say something but I passed back out.  

The next time I wake up it's morning.  I'm laying on my side and my friend is lying next to me holding my hands.  When he realizes I am awake he gives me the biggest hug ever and keeps saying "I'm sorry".  I asked why he keeps apologizing and he says because it's his fault I am hurt, which I vehemently protest. 

 

He tells me I've been asleep for 4 days and he thought I was going to die.  He knows our friends are also being kept here and all seem to be a little beat up but okay otherwise.  We talked about...something and it ended with me falling asleep, a very gentle kiss on the forehead and a sigh.  

Sometime passed and we came up with a plan to escape and free our friends.  The device was set to go off in a few days so we needed to work quick so we could survive and save home(?). When I was feeling better and we were putting our plan into action I looked up at my friend and my brain said "that's the Doctor".  Now he didn't look like the Doctor.  I mean he kinda looked a little like 10 but like not.  Like 100% not David.  

We somehow convince some soldiers to help us and free our friends.  Things are going sideways, and we are running again.   We all get into two topless humvees.  That's when I realize 2 of our friends are a f**king near duplicate of my friend (seriously subconscious?!?!) and a pretty blonde (come on now!).

Now duplicate and blondie are arguing and then yelling at my friend and it's weird.  It's basically f**king 10 and 10 two but like they aren't 10.  I can't explain it.  But they don't look like him.  I know what he looks like and they were like "wish" versions of 10 (haha).  Like attractive but something was off.  And I had ZERO romantic anything, like we were literally besties.  

Anyways, we are speeding away from the prison when a rocket goes off and is headed towards the prison we just escaped.  Here is where it goes full nerd, please don't judge me too harshly.  

I scream "No they are going to blow up (wait for it) MY T.A.R.D.I.S!"  And my friend looks at me and smiles and says "Yours, huh?!"  But she's safe...I don't know how I know but I know. 

The two humvees get separated by a high road (very Indiana Jones).  My friend is trying to help the others in the other vehicle and is handing his duplicate a box and says remember (name) said we'd know when we'd need it.  Blondie asks who (name) is.  And a f**king fight breaks out because she is jealous of an old "friend".  

And Oh My God, why is my brain locking me in this insanity!

Something happens and the humvee loses control.  I can feel the floor going out from under me.  My friend grabs me and wraps himself around me as we crash. I can feel the impact and our bodies flying forward and then nothing.  

I woke up in a literal cold sweat and racing heart.  

Here's what is weird to me.  I haven't watched Doctor Who since Jodie regenerated back into David like in October 2022.  It's weird because I usually rewatch some fav episodes or binge a little but I literally haven't watched it in almost a year!!!!! I haven't seen Journey's End in probably 2 years or more.  So why did my brain have a fever dream about 10 and 10 two out of the f**king blue?!?!?!

Apparently, I love scotch......

Or I've just really had that much of a f**ked up week and I gave up wine and beer for Lent...You thought I was kidding!!!!!!!!!! (see end of this post)

Yaaaaassss!

I may or may not be feeling REEEEAAAALLLLYYY good right now.

Yay for FREEEEEEE Scotch tasting!!! 10 different kinds of Scotch to try!

I may or may not have realized I actually enjoy the $hit out of Scotch...who knew!?!

I can't...yes I can...no...maybe I need food....yASSSSSS food!  I have the SCOTCH giggles....

Okay okay, I'm good...I made FRIENDS!  Like old people friends...do only old people drink Scotch. My dad drinks Scotch...but I like it...I'M NOT OLD...well not that old...shhhhhh

I have posted four David gifs...I should stop now...but he's Scottish...and I'm drinking Scotch...or was drinking Scotch...stop judging me.

Hmmmm maybe I need sustenance...

Oh I'm gonna to feel this tomorrow...

Lucky Dogs for Lunch

I know its a couple days late but this weekend was soooooo much fun.  Wizard World was PACKED Saturday...P.A.C.K.E.D.  We saw Grinches and Doctors and Harley Quinns and Wolverines and and and.  And pick something the cosplays were on point.  Although I must say my absolute FAVORITE was a guy dressed as King Jaffe Joffer!!!  I don't have a pic bc  my phone was misbehaving something awful (stupid cracked screen!) BUT he looked like f**king James Earl Jones.  His cosplay was perfection. 

Oh if you don't know that would be the King from Coming to America....

A close second was Wolverine.  This guy was Logan and you can't convince me otherwise.

See...seeeeeeeeeeeee.  And he was very nice about everyone asking for pics. 

I will also mention the PLETHORA of f**king people dressed as Pennywise.  I have no pics because I basically beelined it away from them but the costumes were accurate...VERY accurate *shudder*.

Anyways, I was super stoked for my pic, right?   Right!  And can I just say David Tennant is like the nicest freaking person ever.  He was like hyper puppy excited the entire time.  He took pics Friday evening and twice Saturday with Autographs in there someplace and a panel.  And the energy never faltered. 

I took my pic during the first session Saturday.  I was probably the hundred and something person he saw and still just happy happy.  Like how do you do that?  I know its part of the job but it seemed 100% genuine. 

So anyways, here's my account.  I was in line forEVER but that's cool, I kept myself amused by people watching, of course!  I was wearing a t-shirt...one of these years I am going to dress up!  That is happening dammit!  Anyways, I was in a Star Wars/Doctor Who mash up shirt. 

So I finally get to the front of the line "yay"!!!!  He was friendly with everyone and all laughing and smiles.  It gets to my turn and I get a "point at" (Maybe a 'okay your turn'...maybe a 'nice shirt'...maybe a weird tick...no clue) and a crazy enthusiastic "Hellooooo, Good Morning!!!!" (I don't know how to type out a Scottish accent properly) and my response.. "Hello" with the biggest stupidest cheesy smile.  I am so f**king lame...hahahaha.  Then a 1, 2, 3 picture and you are off. 

Observations:
- where does he get his freaking energy?!?!
- JFC he is significantly taller than I realized...or I am just short...or both. 
- No really I fit under his armpit
- Seriously though, he had to lean over to put his arm around me
- He is so accommodating to fans
     - a couple had him do a gender reveal and he was crazy excited
     - some ladies had him hold a thing like he was crocheting and it was adorable

People always say don't meet your favorite whatevers because they never live up to your expectations but this was not the case for like the 3 seconds hahaha.  The panel was great too.  Again, INSANELY excited.  How does he do that?!?!?!

So all in all a crazy fun day!  Saw Stan Lee from a distance.  Saw Jason Momoa by being a creeper (shoosh). Side note - I knew he was tall but good lord he is a big guy!  Saw Rowena (Ruth Connell-Supernatural) just chilling in her Autograph booth.  Saw Thomas Ian Nicholas taking selfies and looking like he was having a great time.  The Fonz...the freaking FONZ (Henry Winkler) was there.  I didn't get to meet any of these people because that would have been crazy expensive but just seeing them was super cool!  Also, ran into Rob Kerkovich walking around (Sebastian-NCIS NOLA), told him hello but I didn't ask for a pic...because I am lame.  He is so super sweet! 
 
I love love love going to these.  Its so much fun.  Just being there, walking around, surrounded by other fans...just that its worth it.  Meeting/seeing your favorite celebs is Lagniappe. 

So now I have a pic with David & Jenna.  Who will I get to meet next time?!?!?!  Maybe I should venture away from Doctor Who....NAH!  Or maybe...depends on who is coming. 

Just some sights we saw (wish I had more of the cosplays...stupid phone!):

I was in line and couldn't get their attention

Cool set up at one of the booths WWTW 

Eeep

Baby

Let go Back....to the future!

I can't contain her...she is breaking freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

No no no ...not an Alien (check please)....my inner fangirl...she is trying to escape

In 3 days-ish I'll be at WWNOLA.  Yay!!!!!!!   I missed last year (boooooooooo) but we got our tix for this year (yaaaaaaaay).

I'd be excited just for that but I am suuuuuuuuuuuuper excited about my photo op.  I try not to be weird but I am totally being weird.  He's one of my favorite actors! 

I'm sure I'd be the same way if I took a pic with any of my other favs.  Probably.  More than likely.  Yea, no, for sure.  I mean I wanted to meet Stan Lee

but $120 for his signature.......I'm good.

And apparently there is a panel.  I didn't know we had panels.  I don't remember panels.  I am going to attempt to attend said panel.  I've never been to a panel.  I'm going to stop saying panel.......PANEL. 

Nah...okay maybe a little...shhhhhh

Anyways, I'm having a moment...Ex-cah-uuuuuuuse me! 

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Its still in the 30's down here, I think my brain is a bit frozen so I'm going wrap myself in more blankets and attempt to type...I can't feel my fingers!

SIDE NOTE - I just read this in the "rules"....."❿ There is absolutely no personal photography, no videography and no autographs in the photo bay. No exceptions. Also absolutely no kissing of the guests or asking to be kissed by them."
Is that something people do or did?!?!?!  That's creepy weird...DON'T BE CREEPY WEIRD. Remember, these are REAL people...with REAL lives...REAL families...that's just.......

I think I pulled a muscle being weird....

So yesterday...ya know Thanksgiving here in the States...I opened Facebook and made the absolute stupidest noise I have ever made! 

I follow Wizard World.  And I always see all these super cool guests going to other cons but few come here to NOLA.  We get some but not toooooo many.  Anywhos the only one I was willing to pay money for was Jason Momoa.  I like him plus how funny would it be seeing me next to him (see this post) but I wasn't sure I could justify the $85 to take a pic. 

Anyways, yesterday...the day of THANKS...I saw that one of my FAVORITE CELEBS is coming to WWNOLA and I geeked out.  I squeaked and then I said "$hit, I wonder how much that is gonna cost...*sad face*".  The husband was like who is coming...?

I very nonchalantly said "oh, um, David Tennant".  Ya know, like no big deal.  When inside I was like

He said "Uh huh, maybe you'll get it for Christmas".  Really?!?!?!  Then he said no, probably not.  DOH!

Anyways I looked and apparently Wizard World was having a Black Friday Promo *SWEEET*.  If I bought an anything Black Friday, I get a discount!!!!  So I thought about it and said I'd make a decision in the AM when I wasn't drunk on food intake. 

So this morning I decided that I would totes regret NOT doing a photo because reasons....then I realized it was $104...OUCH.  Can I justify that?!?!  I can do it, maybe...I dunno.  But with the Discount, its $89...wait I can justify that, its under a $100. 

That's when I bought a photo op with one of my fav actors and then I fangirled a little...maybe a lot...and now my neck/back hurts...doh!  Oh and I told the sig other to MAKE SURE HE IS OFF so we can go this time.

That's it...nothing that interesting but I am kinda freaking out...this is sooooooo cool!  I love Cons!!! They give us little nerds a chance to meet/take pics/get autographs from our fav heroes (and villains). 

So yea Happy Thanksgiving...I am definitely thankful for seeing that post!

Good lord man do you ever sleep?!?!

Okay so I am clearly a fan of that tall, skinny, Scottish actor guy.  Like I actually think he's a stupid talented actor but I also have a tiny crush.  But I think its because he's eerily similar to my wonderful husband, well he's older so I guess my husband is like him...whatever.  Who am I talking about...? *muahahahaha*

Obvi my hubs isn't a super famous actor but they have similar looks and mannerisms and on occasion when I see interviews its uber weird.  Especially when the hubs grew a beard last year....

Anyways, that probably has something to do with my enjoyment of said actor.

SIDE NOTE - I met my husband before I really knew much of this actor I am speaking of

Moving on... sir you are not the energizer bunny!  Every time I turn around I see "David Tennant to star in _____".  Not complaining, just impressed.

Just in the last year....

How to Train Your Dragon TV Show
Ducktales
Broadchurch Season 3
You, me, & him
Call of Duty WWII
Good Omens
Jessica Jones Season 2

I'm sure there are more but gooooooooodness. Whatever, I still think he's stupid adorable...its rather silly if I'm being truthful.

Oh good lord he's a huge dork...Okay maybe its less of a crush and more of I think he might be my spirit animal

Not....not here...he's just creepy AF here...I am not creepy...well not usually...okay not intentionally....

Oh come on....now THAT should be illegal!  This is the best way to make someone giggle uncontrollably...

Maybe I should resign from the internet....

Weeeeeell, Purple IS my favorite color....

Saw this:
