Today is the day I leave for
Comic-Con. I had hoped to put up an introductory video, but a last minute meeting made that impossible to fit in today. I'll be updating as much as I can here and on Twitter, though I won't have much opportunity for internet access, given the state of my computer. (Airlines frown upon taking external monitors with you...) So I'll do the best I can just using my phone. The travel adventure begins in T-minus 5.5 hours!!!!
I know it's Linky Wednesday, but I'm skipping that to start a new thing. This thing is going to be called.....
And suns and moons exploded with its advent.
This is going to be just what it says. I'm going to do something awesome, and bring my Fatshirt Kirk action figure along.
I'll be posting them here, and likely on my Twitter as well, which can be found here.
Here's one to get you started:
FYI, this new thing is going to be awesome.
Wrote a post today, and realized it wasn't very interesting. So I deleted. But then I remembered that it's......
LINKY WEDNESDAY!!!!!
Whoo! How exciting is that?
Today, I'd like to do a shameless plug/introduce you to a sweet website. And what is Linky Wednesday for, if not introducing you to sweet websites?
Space Gypsies' slogan is "We Fangirl So You Don't Have To." Doesn't that sound a bit like what I do here at Mary Lou Who? Well, they thought so too! Space Gypsies has recently asked me to become a contributor to their site, doing convention coverage, reviews, and general fangirliness. I'm so excited to be a part of it! So go on over and check them out - I'll be posting soon!
Only one link today.....because I really want you to go to it! :P

As an avid fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation and the creator of Tumblr's F*** Yeah, Captain Picard, I feel it is important to bring this day to your attention.
This is an actual holiday in the show! Awesome, right? Well here you go. Watch to the end for extra lols.
Here are a few awesome Captain Picard links. :)
This Captain Picard Day Blog has some fantastic fanart and neato Picard Day goodies.
A sweet Captain Picard game!
The Captain's Blog written by Jean-Luc.
If you're planning a party (which I will next time this falls on a weekend) you can play the rather extensive Star Trek: TNG Drinking Game!
I personally celebrate Captain Picard Day by wearing a Star Trek t-shirt, trolling the interwebs for new Captain Picard memes, and, of course, sitting down for an episode or two (or ten) of ST: TNG with a cup of tea, earl grey, hot.
Linky Wednesday, Round 2. Is this going to be a thing?
And yes, I'm writing in Helvetica today.
NO WAY.
Just very diverse.
Slammin (yes, I still use that word) new purse from Charming Charlie and Big Bang Theory t-shirt from Mom.
