About Me:: I'm fiercely independant, I think the worst way to die is to be eaten alive by zombies, I'm afraid of brazilian wandering spiders, my very favorite thing to do is go to concerts (expecially metal shows in small venues), and I hate reality TV.

I'm a geek who loves video games, board games, Dungeons & Dragons, anime, and comic books. In fact, I used to want to be a comic book artist.

Music is very important to me. I don't play any instruments, but I am almost always listening to something. I'm definitely a metalhead, but I enjoy lots of different genres.

Fill in the blank: "People who like _________ will love my blog!": Video games, unprofessional movie reviews, random ramblings, rants, and the occasional public service announcement.

What makes you different from other bloggers?: My top Google search referral is "brazilian wandering spider venom". Talk about a niche...

I have a second blog devoted to my exploits in the infmamous World of Warcraft:

Power Word: Totem

I'll have to download the Norther cover. I wanted to see Judas Priest sooo bad. Them and Buckethead - which my bosses husband scored 6 tickets to and brought all of her kids (all 16 and under). Meh. Gwar was the first "real" metal show my wife has been to. Chemlab/Skeleton key didn't count because Chemlab is just ridiculous.

She tried the overexposure thing to me, only with xmas music this year.... which spawned only more metal! Oh, and our dog's official favorite band is also Judas Priest. He gets all hyper when Rob Halford starts screaming. It's almost as ridiculous and hilarious as Chemlab, but not quite.

Muahahaha - oh how things have changed. After planning and having a Heavy Metal Martini party back around 6.6.06, she'd been subjected to so much Slayer, Judas Priest, and Dimmu Borgir that she keeps metal albums in her car now. Big steps :) She still hates most death metal ... esp. Gorgoroth and Cradle of Filth.
My friend recently hooked me up with 17GB of music, most of which is metal... so I'm going through album by album. Listening to the Abominable Iron Sloth right now. Have you heard the Dimmu Borgir cover of Twisted Sister's "Burn in Hell"? That cracks me up.
Everyone asks if I got bled on at Gwar. Sadly not, but the massive guy in front of me got soaked. And I was wearing 4" platform boots! It didn't help that I was standing in front of the sound booth.

I need $ to go concerting again. It has been tooooo long. I want Skeleton Key to tour again.

Sort of. What sub-genres of metal are you into?

I keep contemplating about whether I should start playing W.O.W. or not. People keep telling me not to do it because I will then never want to come out of my house again, but it looks quite intriguing.
