About Silverwynde

I'm a Transformers fan, Pokémon player, Brewers fan and all-out general nerd. I rescue abandoned Golett, collect as many Bumblebee decoys and figures as I can find and I've attended every BotCon--official and non--since 1999. I'm also happily married to a fellow Transfan named Prime and we were both owned by a very intelligent half-Siamese cat, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge on June 16, 2018. We still miss him. But we're now the acting staff of a Maine Coon kitty named Lulu, who pretty much rules the house. Not that we're complaining about that.

Sunday Morning Nostalgia Crush!

Posted on August 14, 2022 by Silverwynde

“Magic” by Olivia Newton-John. I loved her voice and her music was amazing. Don’t even get me started on Grease, since that was my favorite musical as a kid. A hearty “Fuck you, asshole” to the cancer that took her. … Continue reading →

Lip Service

Posted on August 9, 2022 by Silverwynde

We had our yearly meeting on Saturday. It was the typical “hooray for us” sort of thing that I heard while working for Walmart. Mostly, it dealt with the business but it also covered things like our culture and so … Continue reading →
