8 Geek Items for the HUNGER GAMES Fan
Wednesday, February 29th, 2012
Okay, so yes I said I’d post pics of my writing retreat this week, but…really, this post is so much more necessary. Tomorrow kicks off HUNGER GAMES MONTH (yay the movie!!!), and, of course, I’ve got to do my rabid fangirl part to obsess celebrate. (Also, before I forget–in the completely boring line of business–just an FYI that Google is supposed to be pulling their Google Friend Connect button–that thing over to your right with one hundred-and-fifty-something pictures of happy people and their cats–from all non-blogger sites tomorrow **sniff, sniff, waaaail**, so you might want to consider following this blog via email. Do you see that cute little envelope icon at the top, right edge of this post? That’s the one. Go at it.)
And now on to our post.
Because what book do we adore more than almost any other on the planet???
THE HUNGER GAMES!!!
(Side note: If you don’t love it, then leave now. You’re not allowed to laugh, snort, or guffaw with us today. Also? I cast a shrinking curse upon your underwear drawer.)
And WHAT, my preciouses, do we adore almost just as much as THE HUNGER GAMES?
The rabid fan girls and boys! All drooling and crazy and running around in our their cute little camo, sticking arrows in people and making the Mockingjay sign into our their PB&J pita sandwiches. This post is for us them. The brave rabid souls who need more HUNGER GAMES items to maintain our their rabid geek status. To us thee I bequeath (in order of random awesomeness):
The Hunger Games lightbulb. (buy it at Amazon)
And what better use for said lightbulb than to illuminate your desk as you write lovely emails texts letters to your family back home. Although, too bad this doesn’t come with President Snow stationary. I’d totally use that for my mean official correspondence, like bills and income taxes. (buy it at Amazon)
And ooh, Katniss’ bow! How cool would it be to slink amongst the trees at the mommy-and-me park playdate, looking all Katniss-like, while the other moms talk pedicures and Jershey Shore? BEST. THING. EVER. (buy it at Hot Topic)
Also, single guys? This would be cool on your car’s dashboard. Probably even get you chicks. Hot geek ones. (buy it at Amazon)
And if you’re worried girls won’t go for you because your man-beard hasn’t grown in yet. NO. WORRIES.
Clickety-click –> for a cutout of Seneca Crane’s beard!
Just trim and paste onto desired scum-stache area. (Make sure to use Gorrilla Glue or cement paste since glue sticks will only give you about an hour’s worth of stickage. Also, duct tape is acceptable.)
And if you’re headed to the gym, don’t forget the Hunger Games water bottle. This baby’ll allow you to work out like a District Tribute while imagining Haymitch tossing croissants your way on the treadmill. (buy it at Cafe Press)
Of course, to go with that fancy dancy water bottle, you’ll need some fancy dancy food. And what could be more enticing than meals based upon the forages of the impoverished district residents. (buy it at Think Geek)
And finally…
Wait for it…
Wait for iiiiiiiiiit…
The HUNGER GAMES snuggie!!! Hahahaha…heck yeah. (buy it at Cafe Press)
Do you love them? If so, please take the Rabid Fan Girl Test so we can be warned to see how dangerous far your rabid fangirl status reaches. And not to brag or anything but…I’ve got movie tickets for HUNGER GAMES’ opening night. Do you?

Harry Potter Rabid Fan Pics
Wednesday, July 20th, 2011
Well, rabid fan peeps, did you see Harry Potter??? Annnnd? Did you love it?
Peter and I did our rabid fan thing opening night (which mainly looks like me being the rabid fan and Pete being my arm-candy) with the most awesome groupies ever! Some of them had been there since the wee hours of the morning and STILL had energy! Like these ladies. Check out the pillow.
I caught this group walking by us in full character, looking way too fabulous. Love the lady in the back!
And lucky us—right after we got in line, THIS cool fan dropped by to hang out with us for the long wait. Hey, Jay Asher! (Sadly, I’m not in costume…blame the long work day. I do have my cool purple hair streaks though. They’re very “Tonks” looking, don’t ya think?)
For much of the evening we held the honored place of Very Last in Line. Until THIS guy came and stole it. We dubbed him “random end of the line guy.” He embraced the title, so, of course, we had to get a pic with him.
Once inside, the theater hosted a costume contest. These two almost won. Aren’t they adorable? I dig her hair.
And apparently Batman is a huge Potter fan. Who knew?
Finally, the show began. My sister, her hubs, and Pete and I sat in the front row with our cool Harry Potter 3D glasses.
My sister cried. I ate gobs of buttered popcorn.
