I am southern. I believe in a cold glass of iced tea on a hot summer day. I believe in beauty. I believe in finding beauty in all the things around you. I believe in love and devotion, even when it's to a celebrity, a movie, a book, or a tv show. I believe that you can fall in love with fiction, and the characters it creates. I am just a southern girl, prone to crushes on boys in books....or on tv...or in the movies...and Wil Wheaton, if you ever read this, know that you are #1 on my crush list. :)

I’m a little bit in love with this MR collage…especially the RDJ and MR bromance pic. :)

This is Benedict Cumberbatch’s eye.
If you look closely, you can see that his eye is blue with green around the pupil.
This is an example of an interesting genetic phenomenon known as “heterochromia”.
Heterochromia can be caused by a variety of things. A mutation in the original eye color gene can cause one color to turn into another. Physical injury can also cause discoloration or changing of the iris color. But perhaps the most interesting reason for heterochromia is when the host is a chimera.
It has been discovered that occasionally, when there are two blastocysts (or extremely young fetuses) in the womb together, and one dies or becomes parasitic, the stronger blastocyst will literally absorb the other dead or weakened blastocyst. Recently, it has been discovered that this happens a lot more often than previously thought. In the case of heterochromia and several other interesting conditions, the stronger of the blastocysts accepts the cells from the other into its body, and they often grow and survive.
TLDR; The reason Benedict is so fucking amazing is that, quite possibly, he used to be two people.
Yes. Fucking yes. Just. Yes. Perfect fucking deduction.

LMFAO Cover of the Day: After months of rearranging, 18-year-old Noah finally figured out how best to cover LMFAO’s “Sexy & I Know It” — and his rendition has just been named the day’s trending video by NBC’s Today show. You can almost see him blushing as he shares his big news with fans on Facebook and Twitter. Pretty obvious what’s going on here — Noah’s sexy and he doesn’t know it.
Damn. I may need a moment to recover after watching that. WHAT A VOICE! And that was hella sexy. #justsayin

Dear World,
I just needed a place to vent today. This day grows more inevitably uncomfortable and upsetting every year it rolls around. I have such a love/hate relationship with Mother’s Day. My mom is, quite literally, a life saver. Had it not been for her, I know with certainty that I would not be here to type this post.
I appreciate having a day devoted to mothers and a chance to tell my mom how much I love her and how much she means to me. She has always been there for me, through thick and thin, and through a lot of things that she should have just walked away…but she didn’t. She stuck by me, and still is. While we may not always see eye to eye, and there may be times we both want to choke each other, at the end of the day, I know she will be there for me, and I think she knows I will be there for her.
My problem with this day comes in the fact that I am NOT a mother. Not that I didn’t want to be, or chose not to be, it’s just the way life is. I had cancer when I was 22, and had to have a hysterectomy. So physically, I’m just not able to bear children. I try my best not to dwell, to not think of all the could have beens, if my life had gone differently. But on days like today, it’s a little difficult not to dwell. And for every person that walks up to me, and tells me Happy Mother’s Day, the deeper the knife drives into my heart.
So this is my PSA: Please don’t just assume that because I am a woman above the age of 18, that I am a mother. Don’t assume that about others. There may be women like me, who can’t have children, those who’ve tried and lost children to miscarriages, or those who simply chose not to have children, because that’s not the path that their life took. Please stop telling every woman you see Happy Mother’s Day. For some, it may not be happy. Please, just THINK before you speak.
One day, maybe this will get easier. For all my friends and family that ARE moms or mothers-to-be, I love you all, and wish you the happiest of Mother’s days. Cherish your children. Hold them close and feel blessed, because you are. For those of my friends that aren’t mothers, whether by your choice, or something out of your control, I love you all too, and hope that this day for you has been just another lazy funday Sunday.
Sincerely,
Deanne

@shawn_ch This made me LOL, and think of the convo we had about Renner and ScarJo the other night. :)
