Happy New Year! Happy 2014! Happy New Beginnings!
While 2013 was a year of mind-clustering: WTFrack!, OMGawd!, Not again!, Did that really just happen!?, Seriously!?, *Sigh*, Are you kidding me!?, Dude!, Ugh! you've got to be joking!, and so on, I or (shall I say WE) surrrrviiivvved! (Much like we will when the zombie apocalypse strikes later this year) In all seriousness despite the whirlwind of unexpected challenges, 2013 was a legendary year! However, I am more optimistic about 2014. Why? Because it's the year of the horse and I'm a Trotter! Neeiiiggghh!
Just slightly past half-a-month in to January, 2014 has been noteworthy. An interview for an advanced position at current employer, a stellar week at CES and Phat Con this weekend (where I'll retire my gruesome, Wanda/Tisha the Waitress), 2014 looks promising!
My twist on "Wanda the Waitress" from the wicked board game "Zombicide". For more check out my album Freakish Creations.
Without further to do, here are 14 events and projects I look forward to trotting and horsing around with through this year:
- Monsterpalooza March 28-30 - A frightful favorite where I debuted Wanda the Waitress and opportunity to socialize with the WetMovie crew.
- Hollywood Half Marathon April 5 - This will be my first half marathon post knee surgery and third time participating!
- WonderCon April 18-20 - Stay tuned for my coverage of this event on www.GeekSmash.com.
- Cosplay! I'll be retiring Wanda this month and have some wicked zombie mash up ideas in the works. I'm open to entertaining your suggestions; who would you like me to zombie cosplay?
- TishTini TV - I'm broadening my YouTube presence with a handful of monthly segments that you may or may not find entertaining.
- E3 Expo June 10-12 - With a PS4 coming my way thanks to Crazy_Comic_X, I better master the skills of newage gaming. My old school NES skills will get me no where!
- San Diego Comic-Con July 24-27 - Not sure if financing another week at the ol' SDCC is a sound decision but I must survive The Walking Dead Escape while I'm there!
- Amusement Days - From Universal to DL, with season passes to both, who's in!?
**Intermission - This break is brought to you by my lunch hour; in which I've devoured delicious chicken posole and adopted a moment of writers block. The amusement will reconvene at the next bullet point.**
- Movies - When time and energy permits I love to check out midnight screenings. Also a fan of drive-in theaters; yes they still exist. WestWind Drive-In in Goleta, CA is a movie geeks paradise; located off the beach it's the perfect setting for a summer double feature.
- The big 3-Oh! October 18 - Good bye 20's and hello 18! I heard 30 is the new 18 so I'll let you know if that stands true on October 18. If the gift giving spirit, check out my wishlist (I'm so vain!)
- Scares That Care - As a California State Representative it's my goal to volunteer more of my time to "scare away childhood disease". Donate today!
- Geek Smash - No I don't mean smash geeks! If you don't know by now I'm a correspondent and head of social media for one heck of a geeky site. It's time to get serious and geek up our followers and content.
- Eat more vegetables - Beacause inhaling a bag of adorably juicy gummy bears are not what the doctor ordered. Beside I need to set a good example for the four-legged garbage disposal know as Charger.
- Manpanion - Once upon a time in my 20's I had a boyfriend, then I woke up. Not expecting love and maybe Tindering is for fools, but not giving up on the charades of Internet dating!
To kick off this globe trotting year I'll be guest dork this evening on, The Dorkening!
Cheers! Best! Slainte!
