The North Remembers.

Warning. Spoilers ahead.
All the internet is a buzz with the terrible terrible loss to House Stark. Spoilers are leaking out all over the tumblr and depression is about. I'm not going to lie, I did know this would happen. So as I watched last week's episode, I did not have such a strong reaction as my friend, who I was texting while watching, would have hoped. Tho I did go momentarily insane when I first read it, to be clear ;). I remember texting my good friend in an angry fury, prepared to throw things through windows and knock over book shelves. But I really enjoyed the way the show portrayed it; so much emotion. In case you didn't already read my warning, here are some gif from the end of Red Wedding:





If I could've added sound this this gif, I would have... Michelle Fairley is so amazing in this scene











Even Arya Stark posted about it, and her response makes me chuckle.


Arrested Westeros has also been helping me through this very trying time in my life as I grieve over fictional characters yet again. 

I suggest you visit. 

Because it's my jam.

That's all for today :)

But I tried my best...

Meet Jessie and Alicia. They are #1 and #2 of the great and wonderful "Team Badass."
We three rowed together in high school and our assigned Team BA numbers descend down not only from our names alphabetically, but also by erg scores. Today's blog post will be less words than normal, so sit back and enjoy these pictures of the last time #1 and #3 visited #2 in Pittsburgh... sadly circa 2011.

The pink t-shirt is the epitome of our love for each other and how we encourage each other: 
"But I tried my best... Well your best sucks"
And so, the alcohol had arrived and the first drink of the night was called a "Severus Snape." #2's face after she took a sip was just too priceless not to post. Just start scrolling... then start laughing.
















Then Jess decided to be T-Rex or something















Then Alicia and I decided to dance. Mainly the macarena.































Then this happened.












Yeah... We're pretty awesome. Not going to lie.

#1
#2
#3
Team Badass wishes you all a good day.
