Blogs gone bad: Dr. Blight

You can catch up on who Dr. Blight is on Wiki (here)

Dr. Blight (voiced by Meg Ryan in 1990, Mary Kay Bergman in 1991–1995) – A mad scientist with a half-scarred face hidden behind her hair who represents the dangers of uncontrolled technology and unethical scientific experimentation. In the episode "Hog Tide," it is revealed that Dr. Blight had a grandmother named Betty Blight who assisted Don Porkaloin in his plot. In the episode "Hollywaste", it is revealed she has a sister named Bambi and through Bambi, it is revealed to the viewers and the Planeteers that Dr. Blight's first name is Babs. 


I LOVE LOVE LOVED watching Captain Planet on TV growing up. And one of the best villains was Blight.

Time sure does fly...Blogs gone bad


 Well I kinda missed the 12th for personal reasons so I am a bit behind on getting this up. No problem tho...I am just fashionably late and to that I should make a great amazing awesome..that's a little exaggerated... post.

My villain for today will be...........*drum roll*..............

I don't know why or how but I have always been obsessed with Poison Ivy from Batman I even pulled for her to defeat the black knight though I knew it would never happen. (For those of you living under rocks that are not aware of who she is you can read more about her here)

Poison Ivy holds everything in her hand, she has beauty, she has brains, and she has the ability to poison you in a million different ways. Plants love her, she can't be affected by toxins, bacteria, or viruses. She is like the super duper bad@$$.

Kiersten Writes: A Very LOVEly Contest

Kiersten Writes: A Very LOVEly Contest:

Oh, hey. Remember how I have ARCs of ENDLESSLY, the last book of my first trilogy? Yeah, I remember that, too.


They're so lonely, sitting in a box in my office. All of that pretty purple with NO ONE to enjoy it! So, how about a contest? Yeah, I thought so.

In honor of Valentine's Day, the entry is very simple: a love poem, in the comments. It can be an original or it can be a (properly credited) poem you've always loved. ENDLESSLY deals a lot with the idea of how far someone should go to save a relationship--how much is too much to give up. I take this topic pretty seriously. I know I'm writing about teens, but fact of the matter is I chose to be with someone forever when I was eighteen. I did not take that decision lightly; I've never had a moment's regret.

So, in honor of first loves, last loves, loves that are somewhere in between, GIVE ME SOME POEMS!

One entry will be randomly drawn to receive signed copies of all three of my books (PARANORMALCY paperback, SUPERNATURALLY hardcover, ENDLESSLY advance copy). Open internationally. One entry per person, though bonus good contest karma to those who blog, tweet, facebook, tumblr, skywrite, etc about the contest.

DEADLINE: Wednesday, February 15th, 12 noon Pacific Time.

How do I love thee? Let me count the entries...

Valentines Day....just...no

 


Honestly there are very few holidays that I just can not stand. And at the top of the list is Valentines day. Now I don't know if it is due to the fact that I just have never had a good Valentines day, or the fact that people being morons and running around buying the cookie cutter gifts of chocolate, roses, and perfume just is irritating to watch. Also the whole "What did you do on Valentines Day?" answered with the nothing reply and having to hear, "Well why not? Is he not the romantic type?" Honestly lady if buying me chocolate on Valentines day is what makes or doesn't make him the romantic type, then no, But the other 364 days of the year that he tells me he loves me and randomly surprises me with things I enjoy or presents just because he thought I would enjoy it and sometimes letting me sleep in on the weekend and on occasion doing some of the cleaning chores I have, then yes I think he still counts as a romantic type. Valentines day is the 'day of love' well personally I see it as the day card companies, chocolate companies, and beauty gift companies got together and said, "Hey lets make up a holiday so we can jack up our prices and people will pay them because its for 'love'." My valentines day wish was always to get one single deep blood red rose from a man that loved me. Hasn't happen and isn't going to happen. Valentines day now is just another day full of people with high hopes and disappointments.
