Another year, another ode to Dexter
Saturday, December 17, 2011 Tomorrow night at this time, I will be trying to employ strategies to distract myself from the fact that I won't be able to watch another episode of Dexter for an entire year. I'm one of those people who gets genuinely angry when the credits begin to roll, so you can imagine what it's like to watch a season finale with me. Some couch pillows gonna get punched.
Last year my love for Dexter manifested itself in a Halloween costume (with matching office decor).
Then I made a "How Dexter Would Cook a Turkey" video.
This year, I wrote a seasonally appropriate poem. And by sharing it with you, I'm killing two birds with one roll of Saran Wrap, because I'd also like you to know that you can now find me writing for MamaPop.
What? Jim writing for MamaPop??? Yeah, that's what everyone says. Then again, you didn't know Mister Rogers was a Marine sniper either, did you? (I know it's an urban legend, but the analogy worked too well so go with it).
I'm only two posts in and I've already blown most of my pop culture wad. My first post was about Guns N' Roses, and the post that went live today is about Dexter. I guess I'll just post about Star Wars from here on out until they cut me off.
So anyway, without further excuses, please enjoy my latest: Twas the Night Before the 'Dexter' Season 6 Finale.

I was so happy to see your GNR post on Mamapop! I've followed MP for years (Amalah got me hooked), and have been following you on your blog for a while, too. So it was kind of like seeing a celebrity pop up at your favorite coffeeshop. Welcome to Mamapop, and I hope you post a lot! Love your writing, you always make me laugh, and I love your videos and drawings, too. Thank you!
Totally off topic, I was looking for pictures of burgers on the old Google Images Friday and what should I see, but a pic of you and Fury from your burger post. I saw it and was all, I know them, then I realized that, wait no I don't. :) You're just famous (in my world all of the bloggers I read are famous to me)
So yeah, stalker-ish maybe, but I had to share my unexpected Jim sighting.
I cringed the first time I read it (for obvious reasons - ICK!) but now that I've watched my Dexter marathon and was absolutely ruined during the "it's a dream! PLEASE! AAGHGH!" scene (yeesh, I still can't watch all of Star Wars without blocking out about five seconds of it, Return of the Jedi had to ruin it for me!!) I can now relate with your pain hahahah! I suppose we are related, I was punching my blankets with each episode's credits even though I knew I had the next episode on the computer....hence the marathon. I forsee myself making very dramatic breakfasts for a while to come.
