A Very Brief Reflection.

Here I am, sitting at home on the eve of Christmas Eve listening to the Phantom of the Opera soundtrack (embarrassingly enough...whatev, I love it and we are talking Michael Crawford here, people, not Gerard Butler...) and as I do, I begin the reflect of the year 2009, that will be coming to a close in a week.

2009 was the year I started my first blog. And it happened to be about Zachary Quinto's Eyebrows. A trivial, frivolous thing to dedicate a whole blog to, but I know I surely enjoyed writing it. I really, really connected with Quinto for some reason. Maybe it was his quirk, his lank, his Spock, his tortured evil Sylar. He struck me. And I think if something strikes you, moves you, makes you feel something, it's worth dedicating a blog to.

Oh, well. I don't feel for a second that my writing on this blog has been a waste of time AT ALL. It's fun to write about a cute boy. It was when I was a tween, teen, and it still is.

Happy Holidays, Friends!

Oh, Slash....

It's been far, far too long, friends. But, I do have a little something to share with you. I listened to this, and just about bust a gut.

http://io9.com/5430785/zachary-quinto-fulfills-your-trek-slash-fantasies

Please, please take the time to listen to it. It's dirty and weird, and oddly edited, but HI-larious.

Also, I watched Inglorious Basterds this weekend with my Mother. She loves Tarantino. Her favorite movies are the Kill Bill films (mostly because she is a bad-ass blonde looking for revenge.)

Anyway, why did none of you tell my ZQ's hot, muscly brother was in it?

OMG, I think I'm in love...



I know by trade, Eli Roth is a filmmaker, but I have never seen any of his movies, because...I hear there is a blowtorch to the face in one of them, I don't know if I could handle that.

Hey, Happy Holidays!

Shameless Self-Promotion.

I heart ZQ, you all know this, but I did start a new blog.

http://blindingspotlightofminorcelebrity.blogspot.com/

Ch-ch-check it out!

Best. Halloween. Costume. EVER.

First of all, Happy Halloween!

My dear, dear Kristi absolutely killed me tonight.

My sister was throwing a big 'ol Halloween party night, and Kristi was keeping her Halloween costume a secret...from me...and seemingly only me...for some reason. I even grilled my sister Cori to please tell me, she was like, "Nope, not gonna." And let me tell you, for Cori to keep a secret well, that's impressive, especially from me. We tell each other everything. Seriously, don't tell one of us something unless you want the other one to know.

Well, Kristi walked in the door.

She was not Spock. She was not Sylar. She was Zachary Quinto.

(see pic to the right, obvs.)

It was phenomenal. The most perfectly put together costume I have seen. And I wasn't the only one who got it, either. A few other guests got it too (they know what rabid fans we are.)

It was amazing. Bravo, Kristi. Job well done!



Oh, and this is me gnawing on her eyebrows. We all know how nom-able ZQ's are!

Spock: Child Size

I thought I would share this all with you. Today my delightful step-son had his Halloween parade (we live in Anoka, MN, which is the Halloween Capital of the World, in case you didn't know. Therefore it's all about civic pride, parades (3 total) and all kinds of fun stuff the last week in October in my 'hood.) Quinn, on his own, chose his costume.

He chose to be Spock.

It was a nightmare trying to find a child sized Spock costume! We finally got our hands on one. It was a little big for him, but it didn't matter.

Here is a quick funny story. We sent him to school this morning with all his costume gear, uniform and ears. I was a little worried that he would forget to put his ears on. I tell my mother this concern while we are waiting for his school to march by, Mom says, "Well, if he doesn't put his ears on he can just be...what's the name of the actor that plays Spock?" I laugh, "Heh, Zachary Quinto." "Yeah, if he doesn't have his ears he can just say his Zachary Quinto." I laughed so hard at that for more reasons than one. Mom must of like the response she got from me because she kept making that joke, and I would die laughing every time.

Alas, the ears prevailed. Behold the pics below. Oh, and he tied his coat around his waist because the pants were too big. Heh.

Serial Monogamy

Hi Friends! I know last time I promised not to be so neglectful, but I have had a hard time keeping my word. But, here I am, so let's catch up, shall we?

Mj so correctly pointed out on my Facebook page that I am a serial monogamist when it comes to my actor boyfriend. This summer, Zachary and I had a torrid, passionate affair that lasted through my birthday, through the fourth of July, through my sister's wedding, into the dog days, those waning August days....the days got a little shorter, the night air was a little crisper... I was planning on spending the fall with Zach, maybe going apple-picking, perhaps a drive through the country to see the foliage turn....but about mid-September my heart was stolen away from him....and if you are a regular reader of this blog, you know by who.

Wentworth and I are currently in the midst of a hot and heavy nightly affair. I can't decided if my love for him burns as hotly as it did for ZQ, it's a different kind of burn, I guess. But, I haven't lost all interest in my Zachary, oh, heaven's no. But, I have noticed that my heart doesn't race like it used to when he is mentioned on Perez or JustJared. I smile, remembering him fondly, like an ex whom we had a friendly break-up with. I read about him, all the good things hes doing in the world, participating in a charitble acts, going to concerts, representing his Star Trek family at less popular award shows...and yes, trudging through the latest season of Heroes.

Oh, Zachary...it's good to see you. How have you been?

Why can't my passion burn as strongly as it did a mere few months ago before WM entered the picture? I guess it's why I can't, you know...cheat on my husband. It simply wouldn't be right! I have morals, you know...this isn't an open relationship!


I am waiting for ZQ to steal my heart back. I do think my love for him is stronger. I mean, you don't see a blog dedicated solely to Wentworth Miller written by me anywhere, do you?

In the meantime, friends, I give you Zorn.

Beautiful Broken Boys

It's the characters that I love. Not the men who play them. I don't know the men who play them, and if I did, I don't know if I would even like them. They might be jerks, or our personalities may clash. Let's say, hypothetically, I worked with Zachary Quinto. Let's say, he happened to ...be one of the guys in the lab at the clinic I work at. Ok, I would think he was adorable, no doubt, and from what I have been able to piece together about his personality, the way he dressed (the way a person dresses speaks volumes about them, I think) the way he conducts himself in interviews, he seems funny and disarming...slightly sarcastic, very charming, a little quirky...I think I would like him in reality very much. Maybe too much. I would probably laugh a little too loud at his jokes, you know, that type of awkwardness. I would think he was nice and sweet (if he is) and that would be the end of it.

Maybe because we are privy to more information about characters on a television show then we are about the people in our day-to-day lives (and, fictional characters can sometimes be more interesting than realy people....but again, is that because we know more about fictional characters than our real-life co-workers, neighbors, friends and family?) All the male characters I am attracted to on television shows have elements of tragedy, of sadness (all the female characters I love? Liz Lemon, et al.) It must be a wanting to take care of a broken man. Maybe it all began with my mad love affair with Trent Reznor when I was 15. His lyrics were all broken sadness, misdirected rage. Him, I wanted to take care of. Is it a maternal instinct? I don't think so. I am a mother-figure to an eight year old boy, and I don't want him to ever be broken, to ever be sad, I want him to be a strong independent young man who can make choices for himself. I want to take care of him, but in the way that I mother cares for a child. Make sure he is fed, clothed, happy, healthy, safe and smart.

Even the man I have chosen to spend the rest of my life with, my husband, Jim. I don't need to take care of him, he takes care of me if anything (this, however, comes down to a birth order thing I do believe. I am a younger sibling, I have always had my big sister to take care of me, he is an older sibling, he has always had to take care of his younger brother...plus Jim's nearly ten years older than me...we did get into it the other day a little when I snapped, "You know, when you talk to me sometimes it sounds like your talking to a child." he was getting a little over-explain-y about things, but that's another story) Jim is a capable man, and like any adult, he does have his emotional battle wounds, but he is, mentally, emotionally, very strong.

So, why Sylar? Why someone like Wentworth Miller's character, Michael, on "Prison Break"? These are both sad, broken men. Sylar is a killer, Michael is basically a reverse sociopath (if that makes any sense) I was thinking about this today, what attracts me to these kind of characters. They can be heartbreaking, but it's something about them.

Maybe it's the actors. Sylar and Michael could both easily come across as big ol' whiny babies, or totally repulsive, but I think these actors have really struck a beautiful balance. Especially ZQ, he has quite a lot on his plate. Not only does he have fantastical super-powers, he always has very real issues. Lack of identity, lack of self-worth, lack of belonging anywhere, and the character really took this to heart, and it came out in a very horrifying, homicidal way. This character could have come across ridiculous and comical, but Zachary manages to take it seriously, and therefore the character is taken seriously, even in ver un-real situations.

I won't get into the specifics of the "Prison Break" character because this blog isn't called "Wentworth Miller's Awesome Bone Structure" but, just know, he is a very selfless character, and somewhat broken.

I think about this, but then on the other hand, I think about my All Time Favorite Male Television Character, the one character that I love so much I bestowed his name upon my cat, Ryan O'Reily from "Oz." Now, this man is broken, hate-filled, rageful, sad, ...but he has more humor in his pinkie than Sylar and Michael have combined. And he's ruthless, and really doesn't care about anyone, including himself. This is all very appealing.

In the end, it is the characters. Even in the most primal sense. Do I wanna make out with Zachary Quinto? No, I wanna make out with Sylar (and Spock) Do I wanna make out with Wentworth Miller? No, I wanna make out with Michael Scofield.

And isn't that what life is really about? Who we really wanna make out with?

Oh, and why, yes, I have figured out the link feature. I missed you, Blogger!

The Day The Angels Sang

I feel so neglectful. I have been neglecting my duties as a ZQ Eyebrow Worshiper, and why? Because some other pretty man came along. Le sigh...I even thought to myself..."I could skip 'Heroes' tonight and watch more 'Prison Break'" and then I thought to myself...no...that would break ZQ's heart....I would imagine. Well, it should anyway. I like to think I am stuck in the middle of this hypothetical love triangle with Zachary Quinto and Wentworth Miller...hehehehe...thay would be dead sexy. And, yes, I know this blog is called "Zachary Quinto's Eyebrows" but I have discovered something about Zach and Went that they have in common, other than being foxy as all hell.

They share the same birthday! June 2nd! However, our beautiful baby ZQ was born in 1977, and Wentworth was (surprisingly) born in 1972 ( must say I am increadible surprised to learn that Wentworth is nearly 40.) I wonder if that particular day has some sort of magnetic field of hotness that hangs over it. Maybe the stars aligned on the day both men were born, the angels sang, and God declared, "All ye born on this day shall be beautiful and good, and possess wonderus features that women in the future and past will swoon over for years to come! I declare it!" That sounds totally plausable, right?

Too bad God didn't reserve this decleration for my birthday, June 20th. C'mon...it's just 18 days after....

So, now I have 'Heroes' on, like the good, dedicated fan that I am. Let me tell you how hard it is to blog during the Hiro and Ando scenes. Why? Because I don't speak Japanese and I can't type and read subtitles at the same time. Oddly enough, I am getting the jist of what is going on.
So...we are all in agreement that these two should totally make out or something, right?

I'm Cheating On ZQ...

...I feel hypothetically guilty about this, but I have discovered Wentworth Miller. OMG, where the hell was I four years ago when he was all the rage?!?!? What do we think peeps, our Zachary or WentworthZach..all sex. All the time.Wentworth. All pretty. All the time.


Also, these names, "Zachary" and "Wentworth" all very soap opera-y...

The Great Gazoo Sylar.

I have ignoring this blog FAR TOO LONG! I have just finished watching the Heroes Season Premiere and enjoyed it very, very much. I also watched it with Quinn, which was kinda fun, he loves superpowers. They really cut the fat. Only focusing on characters we, you know, actually care about, which was nice for a change, and the new characters were introduced in a slow, gentle way, not shoved-down-your-throat' "DON'T YOU CARE ABOUT THESE PEOPLE?!?!?!?" way.

I won't give too much away...for those of you who have yet to see it. I just wanna say our boy is most excellent. The only was to describe Sylar's presence is like The Great Gazoo from "The Flintstones." If you get that reference, then you know what I'm talking about. If you don't...Google it. Spoiler Alert at your own risk.

However, he is looking mighty fine, nonetheless.

And I must say, that Peter Petrelli is a FOX.

Mrs. Quinto?

On my phone ( a Blackberry, for the record, which I absolutely hate with the passion of a thousand burning suns, but that's a different story) I had a picture of ZQ as the wallpaper. It was a picture of him at an event of some kind, so it looked like a snapshot. Well, I left my phone sitting out on one of the desks at work, and my dear, dear co-worker Laura saw it and said, "Oh, wow. Is that your husband?" My reaction was stunted. Um, it is clearly Zachary Quinto, first of all. But, Laura is, not sheltered, she just doesn't get out much. And, do I say yes? How much of a weirdo would it make me? I laughed and said, "Oh, no." Heh. I laughed pretty much the entire day. My dear Jimmy isn't Zachary Quinto. He's not as tall, thin, hipster-ish, hat-wearing or dog-walking. I love my Jim more than anything else, but he will never, ever be mistaken for Zachary Quinto. It was hysterical.

I have since changed my wallpaper to a picture of Quinn giving me the thumbs up. That's pretty funny too.

Heh.

Oh, JustJared.com. I've praised you before and I shall praise you again! Love LOVE the video of ZQ and Tyler Shields (the photographer that subjected him to all that delicious milk...you know what I'm talking about.) On the JustJared website "Zach's Revenge Video" where he throws a carton of Silk in the face of Shields. It's pretty amazing....

The pic today is also from that...

How much am I loving ZQ's boots? Alot...

"Hello? Candy Land?"

Heh. Hotness on the phone. I heart JustJared.com. They really love him on there...

Mr. and Ms. Zorn

I realized I was so excited about ZQ's Funny or Die vid this morning, I blogged without attaching my standard piece of Zorn. Shame!

Funny story!

I work at a medical clinic, a very busy dermatologists office, we are pretty much the only game in town in the Twin Cities...anyways... We have more than one patient with the last name Zorn.

Seriously. I answered the phone the other day and I began to take a message a patient wanted to leave for her doctor, and I started to ask the standard questions, "Last name?" "Zorn." She responded back. I took at least a three second beat before I asked her her first name and date of birth. I was like, "Wait, what? Zorn? No, that's a word Kristi made up for dirty, hot pictures of Zachary Quinto..." So, I had a good laugh about this and kind of forgot about it until the other day when one of the girls back in our lab called me up. "Can you help me with a patient ID number?" The lab tech asked, "Sure!" I said, saddling up to my computer, "What's the patient's last name? "Zorn." She said. I let out an audible laugh. The lab tech on the other end of the phone didn't respond. She probably figured I was laughing at something she couldn't see.

OMG, really? What origin is that last name? Zorn? Greek? Italian? So, after I got off the phone with the lab I typed in the last name to our system, SEVERAL Zorns came up. Amazing. I entertained myself for quite a while with this, and now look forward to talking to all the Zorns in the Minneapolis/St Paul area who need dermatology services.

"For Realsies, babe."

Heh.

http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/85646400e1/hostage-a-love-story-with-zachary-quinto

Funny..and weird. Not used to ZQ swearing so much, but I like it!

LOLZach!

Zachary, Zachary, Zachary Quinto! I wait with breathless anticipation for you Funny or Die video! I hope it's funny! If it can compete with "Living Beneth the Law with Jack McBrayer" I will be sold on ZQ as a comedic actor.

We all know he can bring the funny. The few funny lines he gets as Sylar are always gold. And Spock's cluelessness about a few human quirks in Star Trek were hysterical. So, I don't think I have too much to worry about. Only a few more days!

What a fun way to end the summer!

Is It Ok If I Still Drive To Work In The Winter, Mr. Quinto?

Last night, my sister and brother-in-law came over after a fun, wine-fueled day at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival (we go every year, IN COSTUME, so, it's a pretty big deal for us, since we are all quite dorky) Jim threw some frozen pizzas in the oven and I clicked on the TV to Law and Order. Well, to my ULTIMATE surprise, one of those "The More You Know" adverts came on and who should be informing us of the benefits of unplugging our appliances and turning off the air conditioner!? Zachary Quinto himself! I just about screamed for everyone to silence themselves immediately. Which they did, except for my snarky bro-in-law who, at the end of the PSA said, "Ok, thanks for listening, I'm gonna go comb my eyebrows now..." He was slapped on the arm for his disrespectful comment...even though it made me giggle, because, I do love those oh-so-ediable brows.

Here is a link to it:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AKDW2KdbsQ

I must say, he is kind of channeling Sylar in it...especially towards the end, the "possibilities are endless" line sounds more like a threat then anything else. "Bike to work or I'll slice your head off!"

Oh, man, my TV barely contained the hotness though, and it was almost like destiny because that PSA came on like, a minute after I turned the TV on. Good Saturday night times.

Oh, and here we are all dressed up at Ren Fest:L-r: Myself, my husband Jim, my sister Cori, her little pup Moya, and her husband Derek.

Nerd Alert!

*Sigh...*

I just ate a delicious baked potato! I really wanted to share that with someone, so instead of typing it as a status update on Facebook, I typed it here! Well, now my cat has gone after it...I hope the sour cream doesn't make him sick....

Anyway....

I want to say welcome to the few new people who are "following" my blog! Hi guys! What's up? Thanks for signing up, or in, or whatever. Feel free to comment and share in the ZQ lovin'! I wish I could invite you all over and we could all watch Star Trek and Heroes season 3 together and have popcorn and giggle and swoon to our hearts desire. In the meantime...

*collective sigh*

I'm Amused.

Heroes Season 3 comes out on Sept. 1st. Quinn and I are very excited. He even said, unprompted and out of the blue, "Rox, when you get Heroes can I watch it with you?" But, of course, child!

Heh.

At least he's not watching True Blood with me, right?

No Weekend Zorn :(

Hello friends! I am leaving town tomorrow morning to head up to Northern-ish Minnesota (near Brainerd, for those of you who have seen Fargo...) for a friend's birthday celebration/sleepover. And I will be leaving my laptop home, along with my husband (who has to work, and this makes me very sad :( and my cat. They keep each other company when I am gone though. See, they pretend to hate each other, but I have caught Jim more than once talking to Ryan in the little cutesy voice I use and rubbing his belly on more than one occasion. I just know they spoon at night when I am gone. Anyway, needless to say, I won't be blogging.

Today's Zorn is ZQ being sad since I won't be blogging at all this weekend.

Hey, when does his Funny or Die video premier? I've been checking that website almost daily, and nothing. Aside from "Living Beneath the Law with Jack McBrayer" (Kenneth from 30 Rock) and that makes me laugh waaaay too hard. "You don't have to look like a criminal to be one." Seriously, go watch it.

Save the '80's Nostolga

This piece of Zorn most def. has to be enlarge. Yummy, yummy, nom, nom, nom.

He's at a Save the Arcades event (like Save the Whales? Maybe...) Anyway, he looks so ....I dunno...relaxed? Something.

No hat though, so he must have been having a good hair day.

Stuck In The Middle With You...

Has Baby become marketable? Not that I didn't think he wasn't before, but do you think that people will now tune into Heroes because of the success of Star Trek? Yes, I started to watch Heroes because of Star Trek, but I did it properly. I sat down and watched Season 1, 2, and 3, sequentially, so I know what the heck was going on. I highly doubt someone thinking, "Hey, is that Spock?! Maybe I will start to watch this highly complicated and involved show...four seasons in. I'm bound to make sense of it!" I ask this because the new poster for Heroes Season 4 was released today and it features ZQ fairly prominently. Smack dab in the center. Not only that, only three characters were chosen to represent the show (the "hot girl" and the "fan favorite" I'm guessing, and "the dude with the successful summer movie" was why these three were picked) Here is the poster:


Do those three sum up the show? Hiro, Sylar and Claire? I guess, to some extent, yes. Claire represents the Petrelli mythology, Hiro represents the ...heroes who aren't Petrelli's, and Sylar has been Bad Guy Number One since the beginning of the show. Also, it it me or does Hayden P.'s cleavege look really, really weird?

Anyways, I was pretty excited to see ZQ on the poster, regardless of the reasoning behind it. Baby is totally marketable! I mean, if he endorsed some ridiculous product, I would probably buy it. Even if it was a Sham-Wow or something stupid!

Also, how hot is that Zorn I found last night?! Scorching!

Never Too Distracted For ZQ!

Ugh, here I am. I haven't fallen off the face of the earth or anything (if anyone was truly wondering) There has just been a lot of personal drama going on in my life which is distracting as all hell to me, and believe it or not it takes a certain level of concentration to blog about Zachary Quinto's eyebrows, and every time I went to blog this week I have just felt...distracted. However, I have the day off of work with Quinn, who is home for one day until he leaves to go to his Nana's cabin in Northern Minnesota with her, so we are going to have a fun, drama-free day! We are going to have lunch with my sister in Dowtown Minneapolis, maybe do a little back-to-school shopping, and just chill in general.

There isn't much new ZQ news to share. I am eagerly anticipating his Funny or Die video, which has yet to be posted, and I am eagerly awaiting season 4 Heroes to premier next month (as I continue, every now and then to have dirty, dirty dreams about Milo V. I have NO idea what this means...) And I am eagerly awaiting Star Trek's DVD release! Woot! My gal Kristi is back from her summer vaca and she posted a delicious piece of Zorn on my Facebook page for me last night....

I like this pic because ZQ looks how I feel, forlorn and DISTRACTED!

Enjoy! Missed you guys!

Clean Mr. Quinto

Today's Zorn makes me laugh because when I was in junior high about 12 years ago, I too, had a Mr. Bubble t-shirt. It was really the height of irony. There was a resurgence of product T-shirts in the late '90's that I really got behind for some reason. Tide, Mr. Bubble, so on. I don't know what happened to that shirt. I probably gave it to my grandma's church when we moved, but I loved it.

I just woke up from a horrible, horrible migraine, so seeing ZQ in the Mr. Bubble shirt really lifted my spirits. As did this:

Zachary Quinto Official Website - Blog - SYLAR: Deconstructed - Video

It's quite adorable, and kind of odd. I don't really understand the music selection, but it makes me smile.

A nap, a hot bath, and ZQ really can cure a headache.


Did I mention how excited for Heroes season 4 I am???

Lazy Sunday

Having a very lazy Sunday after my little scare last night. So, with my lazy Sunday I am just hanging out playing on the internets and I came across this hideous thing:




















Now, I have no problem wearing what I love...I have several Battlestar Galatica shirts, Nine Inch Nails shirts, X-Files shirts when I was in junior high, a Spock shirt, even. But, with all my nerdy declarations of love via t-shirts has never been that, cheesy. It looks very homemade, to be fair. But still. Heh. It reminds me of that three wolves howling at the moon t-shirt that is gaining popularity with ironic hipsters. I do love how big Sylar is on the shirt, though.

I was napping with my cat on the couch a few minutes ago (napping, playing on the internet and baking cookies are my activities today...I didn't nap during baking cookies though, just so you know...) So, I think I may go back to napping.

Have some Zorn to chew on. Nom, Nom, Nom....

I love this particulary piece of Zorn because his eyebrows look fantastic!

Storm Chaser---runner-away-from...

Scared, scared, scared! I am at my sister's pet sitting AGAIN (her and the new hubby are out of town for a wedding) and I had to usher the dog AND the cats into the basement because a tornado came by! UGH! I HATE bad weather! Then the power went out! And of course, Cori and Derek are so high-freakin'-tech they don't own a radio! Thank God my computer was charged up, because I was able to listen to the local weather station streaming on my computer....Then I called my dad to make sure he was in his basement, but, no...in true Minnesota-fashion he was practically sitting on his deck watching the storm. Uuuuggghhhh. It's past where I am, and no touchdown or substantial damage, thank God. I heard a fire truck go by so I'm guessing something may have started on fire because there was so much lightening. So, to calm my nerves, I am blogging. It's not really helping.

Maybe some Zorn will calm me down.

This is really par for the course during Minnesota summers, but I never quite get used to it....

Ramblings!

Quinn went with his mom this afternoon until NEXT Sunday. So I am childless for a solid ten days. My first night sans kid? I went to my sister's house, drank some cheap wine and watched The Nanny Diaries. I got home about a half hour ago, and I noticed my cat, Ryan O'Reily, after following me around meowing for ten minutes, is now fast asleep on one of the chairs in the living room not too far from me. I think he was waiting for me to come home before he could rest comfortably. Last night, I went for a walk after dinner, and kinda snuck back in. I heard Jim say to him, "Your not going outside, cat." As he was sitting in front of the front door, if he was waiting for someone, Jim says, "I think Ryan missed you come in." I went out to the living room and called his name, and he came running to me, not going near the front door the rest of the night. He was waiting for me! Isn't that sweet? I don't bring this up to pat myself on the back and think what a great person I am, but, man, that's just so sweet! My little Ry-pants, as I call him (loooooong story) misses me when I'm gone! For a cat, that's impressive. Sigh, I don't know why I decided to share that with you, I just love my cat, that's all. I'll post a picture with him tonight, because he's adorbz. And named after a character from the show Oz, for those of you who were wondering. This is very Ralph Wiggum of me, "My cat's breath smells like cat food."

MOVING ON!

Honestly, folks, I have a wine headache and am having a hard time focusing on anything right now. I found a hot piece of Zorn I want to share with all of you, and just want to say...Happy Birthday, MJ!

I'm going to see the movie Julie and Julia tomorrow, Zach's not in it, but I'm sure it will still be tolorable ;) I'll let you know.

Enjoy ZQ, and my kitty!

*Oh, the picture of Ryan was taken on the old, beat-up ratty coffee table my sister and I had when we lived together. It was my mom's and someone left a damp Windex bottle on the table too long, so that is why there is that big ugly oblong ring on it. Heh. That is all...

No One Looks Good Running.

How does he pull it off?

Oh, right, perfection, I forgot.

We Can Be Heroes!

This was posted last Friday, but I'm only getting to it now. Heroes Season 4 trailer! Woot! Here is the YouTube link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXDRkk4RTUo

Dear TV Gods,

Don't let season 4 of Heroes suck. I know season 3 was much, much better than season 2, but Heroes have yet to get to the level of greatness it was at in season 1. Why is this? Producers? Writers? It's not the actors, I think they are all good, save for a few minor ones who aren't on the show anymore, which is a good thing. I think it's the over-ambitiousness of it all. Quit adding new characters! We care about the original group like family, and along with our real families and friends, and other TV characters we consider family and friends we are running out of spots in our hearts for anymore fictional superheros, ok? I know I'm too late on that trolley because there is already, in the trailer alone, a whole mess of new people..ugh. Circus folk? C'mon now, have we been watching our Carnivale DVDs again? (I love that weird, slow moving show, btw) But, I will give them a chance, as I will poor Ali Larter in yet another incarnation of her character, or her character's twin, or triplet, or whatever the hell her deal is now. I saw her wedding pictures on people.com and she looked beautiful! Anyways, I love Angela Petrelli so very much, I'm glad she hasn't been pushed into the background, as this sometimes happens to women of a certain age in ensemble shows. Also, Peter as a paramedic again? Good...good. And I hear Claire's college adventures are going to get a little on the bi-curious side. Which I am willing to let slide, AS LONG as it's done in a non-exploitive manner, which probably won't happen.

But, my favorite part of the trailer? The very, very end. Sylar is holding baby Matt Parkman and he hisses, "I want my body back." Heh. That baby looks TERRIFIED! I wonder how they got that baby to look so scared? Probably told his mother to go hide somewhere, but it's hilarious. But, I suppose they couldn't have Sylar being all menacing holding a smiling, happy, gurgling baby. Even though that would have been so much awesome. Heh.

Anyways, TV Gods, help us out here. I know there is potential left in this little-show-that-could. It can't go from so much greatness to substantially less greatness to mediocrity in three short seasons. Can it?

Dirty Dreams Done Dirt Cheap

I don't usually admit this...but I had a dirty dream about someone the other night that I really wasn't expecting to, and NO! It wasn't ZQ, sadly enough. It was his Heroes co-star Milo Vent-whatshisface. (I could look up how to spell his last name, but I'm not gonna...) I don't find him particularly, outstandingly attractive. He's cute enough, but he was in that horrible Big Girls Don't Cry Fergie video, with fake tats and ill-advised facial hair. I love, love his character on Heroes, Peter Petrelli, all sensitive-pants and conflicted in season one, his story line was crap in season two (who's wasn't?) and he was kinda, borderline bad ass in season three, as bad ass as Peter Petrelli can be, I guess, taking care of his Ma, and what not. But, I haven't been watching Heroes lately! Also, I don't really know anything about him, I care not to, I guess. He seems a little...I dunno, shifty. He dated Hayden Paniettere and she's not even twenty, and he's thirty-two! Damn. My husband is eight years older than me, but still, that's quite the age gap. Aside, from that, I don't know anything about him. Also, on a personal note, I had a former co-worker who was in a wheelchair and she had a Helping Paws service animal, a golden retriever, and his name was Milo. I saw that dog all day, everyday, for two years. He is the only Milo I know. He was at my wedding!

So, this dream, I will spare you the dirty deets, was very surprising to me. Like I said, I don't know where it came from, or why he was in it, but there is was. I am big on trying to decipher dreams, so I think to myself, since I know so little about Milo himself, I consider him Peter, since I have not seen him act in anything else (that Fergie video doesn't count) but, in the dream he wasn't Peter, he was Milo. Why? What did I experience that day that reminded me of him? Is that what we dream about? I think dreams are our subconscious mind trying to solve problems for us. I think I may be trying to read too much into a dirty dream, maybe my subconscious just went, "Here is a cute boy, knock yourself out." Heh.

Honestly though, every "dirty" dream I've had that had a male celebrity in them, was also a celebrity that is totally out of the blue. ie-Michael Imperoli, yes, Christopher from The Sopranos. And, Matthew Fox---and I don't watch Lost.

Anyways...just thought I'd share, heh.

RE: Today's Zorn. I love how tan ZQ looks in this pic. Use sunscreen, baby! And the pic at the bottom is for LOLs...

And ZQ and Milo palling around to the left! Man, there are hardly any pics of these two together. You'd think since they work together, and Sylar has tried to kill/befriend Peter on several occasions, but not so much...

Even Headless, He's Still Hot

Welp, I just watched (finally) the bootlegged Star Trek from Aruba. It wasn't half bad. Well, the movie is excellent, and that translated very well (I wouldn't recommend viewing Star Trek for the first time with the bootlegged version however...) the quality was a bit shifty. I would compare it to something taped on a VHS off say, the BBC, 30 years ago. The audio was tinny as all hell, and the big music swells, when the Romulan ship appears etc. were absolutely ear-splitting, but it was totally fun to watch. We also had a good laugh because it wasn't formatted to fit television screens, so it was "tar Tre" when the title popped up, and darling ZQ, Spock, was walking around without a head a lot of the time since he's so tall, which was LOL-tastic. I watched it with my eight-year-old step-son Quinn, who did see it in the theater, but he kept looking out the window waiting for the cops to come squealing around the corner because we were watching an illegal movie. I texted my sister, "Quinn thinks we are gonna do hard time if we are caught watching this." She texts back, "Tell him speeding is a capital offense too." I sent back, "As is talking back and not finishing your milk."

It was just funny to see how excited he got, and a little apprehensive, that we were doing something that's "illegal." I don't think watching a pirated movie at eight is going to turn him into some criminal mastermind by the time he's twenty or anything like that, I just don't want him to go back to school this fall and say his favorite thing he did this summer was break the law with his step-mom.

I still can't wait to get the offical DVD when it comes out in November. It'll be fun to re-watch it the way it's intended, high in quilty, crisp audio, and Spock having a head.

Well, I Know I Can't Wait To See This!

First of all, Happy Birthday, Kristi!!!

Second of all:

Quinto's Gun Role Terrifies Locals

1 August 2009 7:11 AM, PDT

Zachary Quinto stunned diners in Los Angeles when he toted a gun as part of a comedy sketch - and his act was so convincing, terrified onlookers called the police.

The Star Trek actor was filming an upcoming skit for the Funny or Die website at L.A. bakery Kiss My Bundt.

But patrons weren't warned of the filming in advance - and were horrified to see the star with a gun, seemingly carrying out a real-life robbery.

Owner Chrysta Wilson tells E! Online, "When someone saw Zach hold up a real gun and scream, 'This is a goddamn hold up!' they called the police.

"Zachary is scary as hell. I was in the back, making batter, and he was running through the script. All I could hear was, 'Nobody f**king move!' He plays evil very well."

Quinto was so good in his role as a gun-toting robber, cops were called a second time as he re-shot the scene - so the actor and director Hank Nelken faced a race against time to get the spoof wrapped.

Wilson adds, "They knew if the cops were called again, the set was going to be shut down. They were whispering their lines in the alley. They knew they had to nail it on the last take."

Hehehe...

24 Hours of ZQ

Ok, I am going to start the show 24, for a variety of reasons. One, Zachary Quinto pops up in season 3-all of season 3- so there is that. The other reasons are pretty un-related to this blog, so I will spare you the deets, but I am embarrassed to say, I have never, ever seen an episode of it.

Is it good? I hear it's a bit unbelievable, but so is alot of stuff I like. That's why I like it. Kiefer Sutherland is in it, I like him, when he's not head-butting people. I hear there is a ridiculous use of a bear trap. My friend Dena was OBSESSED with 24 for a while. So much so, I saw a 24 Halloween costume at Party City a few years ago and I almost bought it for her. She would also try to work Jack Bauer into every example she could, it was pretty hilarious.

We own season one of 24 for the same reason we own season one of Heroes. Jim's dad bought it for him because he thought he would like it. Has he ever gotten around to seeing it? No...so I will!

Also, since ZQ is only in season 3, do I have to see season 1 and 2 to "keep up"? If you know, let me know.

Zadorable. (Zachary plus Adorable? )

This weekend is turning out to be more of a pain in the ass than I anticipated. But, here I am finally having the time to blog! Weee! Don't get me wrong, the Friday night I spent with my sis at the local Mexican eatery on the patio drinking margs was tons of fun, as was going to the bookstore slightly drunk. Saturday was fun too! Finally saw Harry Potter! Then the mall, then an impromptu grilling session, then drama that I care not to get into...now it's finally Sunday. We had simple plans this weekend, watching Let The Right One In, and The Watchmen, Jim and I...just kinda hanging out at home, well, not so much. I seriously thought a few times this weekend, "When the hell am I going to get the chance to get on ZQ's Eyebrows?!?!" Well, here I am, let's discuss!

Comic-con is in full swing in San Diego, I am not there, sadly, but hopefully next year. However, the Heroes panel was yesterday, and much was reveled, according to one of my favorite website, io9.com. Apparently, they've figured out the whole Sylar/Nathan debacle that ended last season, well, they figured it out for Sylar fans, not so much for those rooting for Nathan. ZQ was there and said someting adorable:

Spock vs. Sylar?
Zachary Quinto: I think that, honestly in the end, Spock would have to take it. Only because he's fighting for good, and I'd like to believe that that always wins (Cue crowd going "awwww" as if on cue).
Milo Ventimiglia: What about Leonard Nimoy or Zack Quinto?
Quinto: Leonard in one round.

Awww, that is awesome. So happy that Baby knows his place. Heh.

Ok, back to my busy weekend. Argh. Seriously, I just want to sit around and blog, you guys. No joke.

Todays Zorn is ZQ and my FAVORITE character actor, who was on Heroes Season 3, Zeljko Ivanek! I wrote a Facebook note about him once and everything....http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/note.php?note_id=98126254619

Smile, Baby!

I know, I know, I didn't blog at all yesterday! Because, here I am minding my own business, and I look at the clock and it's ten o'clock! Which is waaaay passed my bedtime, so there you have it. Let's get right down to our Zorn business, shall we?

First of all, my girl Kristi, a graphic designer extraordinaire.. (just ask to see The Weird Sister's shirt she designed for me a few years ago for the last Harry Potter midnight release party on my husband's Barnes and Noble...) took the time out of her busy, creative day, to make me this:

Ahhhhh! And...I die! I love it so very much, I am debating what should I do with it. I see it on my fridge in the near future....

Also, here is a delicious piece of Zorn for you all to enjoy.



Look at the great smile. I have a theory that ZQ doesn't like his own smile, because very rarley do you get a picture of him at an event with just a plain 'ol smile on his face. He's either making a serious face, or kind of smirking, but not giving us the full on toothy smile he is in this pic. It may be a personally insecurity of his, or whatever, but he is so darn cute when he does smile, it makes me smile!

Domino effect, ZQ!

(Also, I highly recommended all of you clicking on the picture to the left thereby making it larger, if those big, beautiful brown eyes of his doesn't make your heart go pitter-patter, there is something wrong with you.)
