Doctor Strangehair: Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Male Pattern Baldness

Packy - Head Llama

Hair today, gone tomorrow: Fact: I have been struggling on a very personal and emotional level, for going on over a decade now. Always in a constant and bitter war, one that I have been forever destined to lose… against my hair. Born with naturally thin and flighty hair, I stood on fairly shaky ground to begin with, but somewhere in my mid twenties, my hair started to evacuate my scalp much like rats deserting a sinking ship. My hair has always been a bit of an enigma. As a…

I finally received my account approval for the forum website, NeoGAF, and as such I now have the privileges and perks that come with membership. I can select an avatar, post messages and make replies in the forum, send private messages, subscribe to specific threads, etc. As a regular lurker of this online community that enjoys the kooky banter between the members, I am over the moon that I can now contribute. So I logged in to NeoGAF, ready to make my mark. Hungry like the wolf to find a…

I Only Want the Things I Cannot Have… #hopespringseternal

I Only Want the Things I Cannot Have… Growing up in the days before the proliferation of the Internet, I didn’t concern myself with the minutiae of the status of entertainment projects. Much like the hefty majority of the world, I enjoyed the content that was available and didn’t say much more than “aw man!”, whenever a TV show I liked got cancelled, or when James Cameron didn’t get to make his Spider-Man movie back in 1992 (although it appears we may have dodged a massive bullet on the latter).…

What a Week That Was… #readmyblog #dammit

Packy - Head Llama

What a week! It’s a been a roller-coaster trying to maintain this monstrosity of a blog the last few weeks. With so much going on in my personal and professional life, it’s been difficult to keep up with this non-paying part time job. But I’m back like a Spinal Tap this week! A full slate of content was unleashed on the masses: bed head, the start of an original story, movie reviews, and a web comic! Plenty to keep you entertained for quite a while. If you ever wanted to…

A Special Message From The Sticky Notes Gang: #LoveWins

Packy - Head Llama

A Special Message From The Sticky Notes Gang: #LoveWins I’m not sure why this was ever even up for debate. All people should be equal to experience the joys, successes, pains, and disappointments of life without regard to race, gender, religion or partner preference. It is a good day to be a human being. Congrats to all affected positively by the legalization of gay marriage in all 50 states. To anybody that today’s news might piss off: get bent! Also, I couldn’t miss this opportunity to show the Sticky Notes…

Burning the Candle at Both Ends

Packy - Head Llama

 Lately, I’ve been tired. Dead tired. Too tired to think. Too tired to hear the first 3 or 4 times that my alarm goes off in the morning. So tired that I find myself struggling to find the energy to do all the things I have to do, much less the things I’d like to do. I know what my problem is, but I’m just not sure how to fix it. I burn my candle at both ends, constantly. My average hours of sleep each night is 4, which was…

Professional Goals

Packy - Head Llama

On top of attempting this whole “blog” thing, I do have goals and aspirations that transcend the confines of a dot com website. Some of these are pipe dreams, some of these are attainable enough with the proper planning, motivation and luck. Without further ado, I present to you my professional goals (i.e. things I want to do over the course of my adult life to fulfill my dreams and make some dead presidents) in no particular order: Self publish a novel for sale. This one shouldn’t be too tough,…
