Hiya! So I promised something messy this week, and messy I shall provide...Messy Marvel, that is. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, it’s alright, don’t feel bad.  I know we just got a lot of new readers recently, so here is a quick description:  when I say Messy Marvel, I’m referring to a book series that I wrote, a.k.a. RMS.  (In case you were wondering, RMS just means Random Marvel-based Story)  That’s what I originally called it and it sorta just stuck)  I have a tendency to shamelessly advertise, so if you don’t want to read it, that’s cool, but if you do, I think you’re pretty dang cool and let me know in the comments.  If you haven’t decided, well, here’s a brief description: A group of teenaged superheroes have a new and very different kind of hero added to their ranks.  Follow this mysterious girl from age fourteen onward as she faces challenges with her team - but who among them is really trustworthy?  And who is hid...

Helloooooo everybody! I’m going to mix it up and bit and do one of these vloggy bloggy thingies (is that the official name?  Are we really sticking with that?  Okay.  Well then)  Anyway, I went on a trip recently, and it was just so packed with stuff and awesome that I have to tell you guys about it. Okay, so the reason that we went down to Texas in the first place was because my cousin is getting married (she doesn’t read my blog but just in case...hi cousin!) and had her bridal shower, PLUS we’re selling our old house (we have a house in Texas, btw...did you guys know that?) so the Matherne clan migrated south to take care of painting and cleaning and such. Alrighty so, DAY ONE: We didn’t take an airplane flight.  Why?  Because we can travel in the Wanderer of course!  The Wanderer (which is kind of a mouthful out loud...and you just said it didn’t you.) So...predictable (also if you haven't seen the video I'm quoting, go c...

Hello, hello, hello! So, two days ago was Valentines Day, right? And most of y'all hated it (I myself don't mind some of the sweets >:D) But in all honesty, I think most of you have the story all mixed up. Valentine's Day isn't all about love and kissing and being around your datemate! Actually, it's about a Saint during the Roman empire. It's a pretty cool story, so grab your popcorn, cus J's about to tell y'all kiddies a story! So this all started around the year 278 A.D.. Emperor Claudius II was ruling, and he wasn't a cool dude. This man loved his army, and he wanted it run with an iron fist. In fact, this douche bag was actually called Claudius the Cruel, due to his bloody ways. That meant that no one wanted to be in his army. And I mean  no one. Claudius is furious, thinking it's because young soldiers don't want to leave their wives and families to fight in useless wars. And he's kinda right. Like honestly, if I had a wife ...
