Watching an impromptu fight break out at the Avengers premiere between a dude dressed as Loki, Cap, Iron Man and Hulk. Wish I could have gotten it on video.

Was it staged or an actual fight between fans of the characters?


I don't know if it was planned or not, but it was spontaneous in nature... totally staged but still totally awesome :)

My husband posted a video on Facebook for one of Frank Turner's songs. I've been listening to his songs all morning and it's just so very difficult to not be happy just listening to him.

For stress relief, nothing beats swinging around my Maul (a heavy tool that's equal parts ax and sledgehammer) in the scrapyard my family owns. My internet has been pissing me off so much lately that I've reduced an old stove and three old air conditioners into unrecognizable piles of scrap metal.

Someone in Dallas decided to monetize that. Their web site design could use some work, but I gotta admit the business idea is pure genius.

Hubby's phone broke last night. We're getting a warranty replacement, but not until the 21st. So, in desperation, I call my parents today since they're on the same provider as us. We're in luck, they still had Mom's old phone. So, for the next week and a half, my hubby is rocking a bright pink flip phone. The mocking has already begun LOL

They offer a similar service here. For stress relief, you can shoot staff members with paintball guns and smash up old cars with baseball bats. Brilliant.

Saving money AND getting an extra day on my "vacation". Hubby and I are going to a wedding in Albuquerque in June. My parents are also invited, but they just found this out. My mom is going but Dad can't get off work, so it's just gonna be the three of us. And Mom is driving. And won't let me give her any gas money. So, the money we're spending for one extra day in the hotel < what I would have spent in gas to get down there :) Woo hoo!!!

On the down side, your extra day will be spent in Albuquerque.
