"Tom Hardy" IS an appropriate answer for the way I feel.



So I’ve spoken before about how I get addicted to things, well I’m going to talk about another thing I do frequently. Obsess. Over the course of my life I have been obsessed with many many things. My obsessions generally last a month or two or at least until I have exhausted myself on whatever I am obsessed with. Once I am done obsessing about something it generally will forever hold a small piece of my heart. 

Examples of random obsessions over the course of my life are as follows:

  • Roxette’s Greatest Hits
  • 80’s Hair Bands
  • Motley Crue (mostly Tommy Lee & Nikki Sixx)
  • Musicals
  • Angelina Jolie
  • Marlon Brando
  • Elvis Presley
  • Richard Gere
  • She’s The Man
  • Flip this House
  • Sam Worthington
  • Cold Case Files
  • Tom Hardy
  • Pitch Perfect


Well you pretty much get the picture. I can’t even really truly fully list everything since I seem to live my life in a constant state of obsession.  It’s these obsessions that I mostly attribute my vast library of random knowledge in my head that apparently comes in handy while playing Cranium.
I find myself as of yesterday coming into a brand new obsession and I thought I would walk you through some of the steps.

On the weekend I went with a friend to see the new Mad Max movie, of course I haven’t seen any of the old ones but the boyfriend assured me that prior knowledge wasn’t needed going into the new one. Normally this would probably have been a movie I would have waited to see at home, but Tom Hardy. So while I watched the movie with my friend, me with my face twisted into some mask of horror/disbelief/why-can’t-I-stop-staring and her hiding her eyes through most of the more gruesome parts.  I walked away thinking “I really hope I don’t have nightmares about Immortan Joe going all Cruella de Vil”

You see what I mean.

Anyways so after having to describe my feelings about this movie to a bunch of people, which I was still unsure about – Apparently “Tom Hardy” is not adequate feelings to have about a movie for most people -  it was made clear to me that I “have to watch” the first trilogy of movies. So I figured well they’re all on Shomi, I’m not a big Mel Gibson fan but why not? 

Seriously people! All anyone needed to say to get me to watch the original Mad Max was “Mel Gibson is about 20 in it and he will make your ovaries sing. I’d have been in. Seriously, if you want me to see ANYTHING (within reason I still have limits) just tell me about the hot guy in it. You don’t need to tell me plot or anything.  I have a LIST of men I would watch just laying bricks for 2 hours. I’m a simple woman.

Thus I come to my current obsession – Mel Gibson. In specific YOUNG Mel Gibson. Preferably before he went nuts. I’ve already stalked his IMDB page read all the trivia and fun facts about him. Made a list of all the Mel Gibson movies I want to watch, and am planning a Mel Movie Marathon in my head. This is day 2 of the obsession. I have a feeling I may have wrapped up my obsession in less than a month.  But until then I’m just going to keep looking at this picture

 – and suffering through all the weird Mad Max dreams I’ve been having since seeing that movie... and by weird I mean the Mad Max/Legally Blonde mash up dreams I was having last night.

 Oh and bonus Tom Hardy wearing a muzzle 'cause that's kind of hot right?
