I Can't Find My Batman Shirt!

As many of you may know, The Dark Knight Rises comes out in approximately 25 hours. If you didn't know that, that's ok. I've know this since last summer, when the bestby and I went to see Harry Potter with some of my favorite people and he clutched my hand so tight and sat straight up in his seat, gasping and saying he couldn't believe this, he couldn't believe this was real, that BATMAN was returning! It was the cutest thing I'd ever seen, but I had no idea at the time just how deep his love for Bruce Wayne went at the time, so his out of the blue excitement scared me a little bit.

Now? Now I know his Batman voice from his Bane voice from his Joker voice. I know why Bane's voice sounds like it does. I know where the Batman section of our local comic book store is. I've had to tell him multiple times that I won't kiss him when he tells me to in his Batman voice. ;) I know when a Batman commercial is coming on just from the chanting. I don't even have to look anymore. 

You know what? I love that I know these things. I love that the bestby is a nerd at heart and he shares this with me. I love his passion. I love his ability to remember little things, like all of the Joker's lines. I love how he loves Batman of all the superhero's out there. The most controversial. The one without any powers. The one with a dark side. Because who doesn't have a dark side? Who has superpowers? Not I. (Then again, I'm not a millionaire with Morgan Freeman making me awesome gadgets.)

I'm so excited to go see The Dark Knight Rises at midnight tomorrow. I'm still looking for my illusive Batman shirt. I'm going to be arriving at the theater at 10:30. I'll probably eat a whole popcorn before we're even seated. I kind of have a popcorn addiction. And I desperately hope that Bruce Wayne doesn't give Gotham everything he has, including his life as the bestby thinks is going to happen. But if it does, I'll have some tissues in my purse incase the bestby needs them. :)

    Side note (because I've had the argument of if Batman is a superhero or not many times... he totally is), neither Iron Man nor Green Lantern have superpowers. As far as I can recall, neither have a "dark side," but hey. It's something.
    Also, just in case you can't find your Batman shirt, Target has some pretty ridiculously awesome ones in the Men's section. :)

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
