Space Invaders

It's that time again~

time to get Spaced!

Kids are out for Summer

Lightening bugs are here

It's the perfect time to
become one with the Universe!

Here, we are already in the 90*s with basically
a gazillion percent humidity.
Even though my kids play outside ALOT,

I still have them inside
at the hottest part of the Day.
More to keep them from coming
in and out, in and out, in and out,
while taking with them,
the piss bit of warm fluff called the a/c....

I digress.

Beam Me Up, Scotty....

These are the perfect times
to watch Movies,
Crafts,

and if you can get it in early enough, baking. 

Thanks to all the available services out there,
paid and unpaid, it's alllll gOod.

THE LIBRARY!
is THE most excellent place for SuMMeR.  

Not only do they have a host of things happening, 

they have movies, and books, and stuff.  

Robots and Space Invaders and Stars 

are no Strangers to the Library. 

*Star Trek!ORIGINAL!{Please, start them out properly!}

*Star Wars

*The Iron Giant

*Lost in Space

*Cocoon

*Close Encounters of the Third Kind

*ET

and of course, 

how could we not mention Pigs in Space????

Better yet,

Star Wars guest stars
on Pigs in Space

.........bOoYah!

I HIGHLY recommend
Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator

as a June read. 

Yes, it is a Space journey. 

Wonderful.

Crafts~

Paper Mache' or Felt anything:
Stars, Robots, Space ships. 

Turn it into a pinata for parties.

If you're lucky enough to have an Observatory close 

to your abode, take advantage. 

It's so CooL.

Even though it's only been 

192 hours and 15 mins and 8 secs 

since "vacation" began, don't fret.

There's plenty to do.

A whole Universe worth.

The Trouble with TriBBLes

I really can't think of ANYBODY who hasn't heard of The Tribble.
Not only that, They get that slightly crooked smile, and for a moment, a dazed far~off look, while they trip back to that episode of Star Trek.

I loved Star Trek. 
I love Trekkies.
They are SO CooL!

This episode originally aired on 
December 29, ....wait for it........1967!
What can I say??? It was a DAMN gOOd Year!

Even Mr. Spock was smitten with {ok well, liked} The Tribble.

 

and Oh! The Intrigue.....

Tribble Trouble

A Surgically altered Klingon Spy

and even a "western-style" brawl {at the BAR, no less!}

But its no Tribble,

Captain Kirk saves the day from All the Trials and Tribble-ations with His usual Dashing, Suave, grOOvy Self. 

Here's the full episode:
