It's been a long time, old friend

Well great googly moogly!  It's been 7 whole years since I've touched this blog and all of the geektastic gifts have only grown since I began writing about them. Lady luck be on our side because it's now cool to be a nerd.  With the advent of Marvel, a new round of Star Wars and a whole slew of fantasy shows across streaming platforms, there's a whole Hulk-size load of stuff floating out there for us to purchase.

Since I've last blogged there's been so much that's gone on in my life.  I've gotten married, adopted one more dog (now it's Jinx the cat, Wookie the golden and Tonks the terrier-mix), and am now expecting my second child - my husband's first.

You can bet your sweet Captain America's ass that this blog will include lots of fun stuff, especially as I'm now on the hunt for all things baby.  Sit back and enjoy the ride because our first stop is going to be at the fun road called Valentine's Day.

I dislike Valentine's Day.  For my very first one, I remember having a huge blowout argument with my then boyfriend (now husband).  But, for some reason, there are still romantical-types out there, so we're going to have fun searching for a few gift ideas for those who celebrate Cupid vomiting all over us.

Star Wars

First stop is Star Wars.  If you're someone who likes cutesy-type things, then the I Chews You Chewbacca Shirt might be right down your alley:

I Chews You Chewbacca Shirt, $15.95

Brought to you by Etsy store Create and Ship, this adorable shirt fit for humans and Wookiees alike is a soft cotton/poly blend. Solid colors are 100% soft cotton. But no promises that the shirt is any softer than Chewy.

Each t-shirt is made to order and takes about 5 - 9 days to ship. If you're thinking of getting this for February 14, you may want to hurry. Cost of the t-shirt is $15.95 plus shipping. Order it here. 

This is the Way Men's Boxer Briefs, $24.33

If, uh, sexy is the way you want to go, then this is the way for you.  Get your very own Mando a pair of boxer briefs leading to his own personal Jabba the Hut. Wait. No. That's not even remotely sexy.  Leading to his personalized lightsaber. 

The Mandalorian This is the Way Men's Boxer Briefs by Etsy store DustyStarDesign is a lightweight (3.84 oz) self-fabric lined boxer brief that will keep him feeling comfortable and looking cool when it matters most!

These boxer briefs are ready to ship in 1-7 business days and costs $24.33.  Order them here. 

Harry Potter 

Even in Hogwarts, romance blossomed through troubling times.  What am I saying, there were people snogging and shagging in the credits of the films for goodness sakes. During the Yule Ball, there were people groping in the bushes.  

Although Cho Chang basically dumped Harry during Valentine's Day at Madame Pudifoot's, because of his denseness, you can avoid it. Don't be a Harry. Instead, purchase a cute gift on Etsy.

Moaning Myrtle Card, $4.28

Didn't I say everyone was shagging at Hogwart's? Although most people like to end their nights moaning like Myrtle, you can give your sweetPeeves a promise of what's to come. This Moan Like Myrtle Valentine's Card is brought to you by Etsy shop Oscar Finks.

All of the cards from Oscar Finks are illustrated , designed & professionally printed in their studio, so you can be assured it's unique. It comes from the United Kingdom, so you may want to order it now to ensure you get it in time.  The cost of the card is $4.28 and can be purchased here. 

Keeper & Catch shirts, $11.50 ea.

If you just want to be the Hermione to someone's Ron (why?), the Ginny (book version) to someone's Harry or the Dumbledore to someone's Grindelwald (toxic, but whatever floats your enchanted boat), then these matching Keeper & Catch shirts are as adorable as a pygmy puff. 

Etsy store Kenzal Customized has figured out a way to make it so obvious that you two are TOGETHER. These t-shirts are made from 100% Cotton ( except the heather shirts, those are 52% cotton and 48% Polyester).  

They take a few days to ship, but if you order today, you should have them in plenty of time for V-day. Each shirt is about $11.50. If you purchase both shirts, shipping is free. Order them here. 

In my next blog post, I'll share some great gifts for fans of the ever-so-popular super hero genre.  Thanks for following and happy wabbit hunting!
