This Week's Haul: Lent Edition

Hello everyone~! It's time for another haul post. If you do not know, last Wednesday was Ash Wednesday which would start the period of Lent for Catholics and some Protestants. Lent is basically the 40 days leading to Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. Our church started a fasting relay and yesterday was my day, and it was hard. One way I was able to get my mind off of food was this haul!

Pretty excited about the new Moon Knight comic and the SD 00 Raiser!

Doctor Who Goodies!

Have y'all seen Peter Capaldi as the new Doctor? You see that finger play, those intense eyes, the low hanging jacket, and the DOC MARTINS? Looking very punk! This doctor is going to be great! I think Capaldi will bring a mad scientist with a gangster twist. Very exciting!

Goofy eyes and spirit fingers makes a great doctor.

Nerd Life: Finally, a Vacation, Stay-cation, and a Retreat All Rolled Up Into One

This week was the week that I have been waiting for since half way through fall semester, a legitimate time to rest and relax. Last semester was filled with changes in job status for Mrs. Nerd and medical treatments amidst school and ministry. Even as winter vacation came, we were busy with getting the youth group kids ready for their Christmas program, finalizing the winter retreat, going to winter retreat, family functions (which sometimes tend to be more of a chore than something one does on vacation), New Year's Eve service, and finally the New Year's vision early morning worship (that's a mouthful even in my head). Which brought us to this week. Finally, true vacation, and I did not hesitate to retreat myself from the world, praise the Lord. Here were a few things I enjoyed this week:

Thanks to Young and Elise for this Star Wars edition Moleskin! So thankful to the Lord for thoughtful friends.

2013 Fall Movies I Enjoyed

Hey everyone! Today I wanted to highlight three movies that I watched this fall season and really enjoyed, but didn't get a chance to review them in depth. With winter vacay coming and the second installation of The Hobbit (which I'm sure will be packed all weekend) releasing in a theater near you last night, I thought I could give you some alternative viewing just in case you haven't been to the theaters in awhile.
