Woooooo!

Hey all.

I'm minutes away from beginning the 10-hour drive to New Jersey, where I will be MILES closer to the Big Apple!

Also, saw Alice in Wonderland last night. Not as good as I'd hoped. I'll let you be the judge - just keep your expectations realistic. They took at LOT of creative license with the characters and plots of both books. It was visually stunning and very Tim Burton in that manner, other than that... it fell pretty flat.

ANYWAY, look forward to my first blog abroad! I'll try to take pictures to show you guys.

Bye!

I built your cupboards out of my bones / shoveled your snow with an ice cream cone

Two sun-shiny days in a row here in the mitten state. Things are looking up!

I am getting progressively more SUPER excited about my trip to Jersey/New York City. But in more immediate news, I an SUPER excited to see Alice In Wonderland (and to party in its honor) tomorrow night. Check out these series of interviews of Johnny Depp and Tim Burton on Jonathon Ross. I've never seen either of these guys give an interview before (I'm probably just not up on the game) but this was so interesting to watch! I'll post the first vid here:




It was so cool to hear insight to their work relationship and into both their lives!

That's all for today, guys. Have a good one!

Living a fairy tale

I'm sure not, but I bet there are people who think they are.

Anyway, I happened to run across some things that all fell in to a theme for today (much like yesterday.) Here goes...

First up is something I've been saving for weeks.

Vogue Alice in Wonderland featured over on A Cup of Jo. View the full slideshow here.

Soooooooo cool!

Next up, via Boingboing, is Sleeping Beauty cosplayers at Dragon*Con 2009.






























Check out the flickr photostream for more photos of other zany cosplayers - there are some really impressive ones, including X-Men and Daria.

Next, also via Boingboing, is a collection of nude Alice in Wonderland illustrations. I haven't had an opportunity to see these, so your guess is as good as mine as to how raunchy they are.




























Have a good weekend!
