Man...things got away from me yet again, and I neglected my poor LJ account. Shameful. No excuses, except maybe the Russian Overlords keep giving me credits every time it goes down. I may never have to pay for my account again at this rate ( Read more... )

Happy Mayday, everybody! I'm celebrating today by snuggling down at home, avoiding the probably-snow we're supposed to be getting and making more gutmonsters. I think there's a hot cup of tea and a nap in there somewhere, too. Anyway, later this week is the Mayday Parade, and I think things should be warmer and happier by then ( Read more... )

Hello again...

Sorry I haven't been up to much here lately. I'm just very putterly lately, lots of little projects that need doing. I have some cool pictures, though. I made a series of fun gutmonsters for a coworker, and they were a huge hit...

To help us all celebrate the happy event of Easter I present Shamu the Bunneh with a hat...this year, even though he wanted very much to be elected Pope, Shamu was turned down by the Vatican. So he vented his frustration by trying to eat the tiny Pope hat I made for him. I keep comforting him by telling him, "You know, critter-varmint, you have it ( Read more... )

I finally hacked through the last chapters last night...and I feel such great relief. I really love a good bad book, but man, this barely had enough funny bits to keep me going. Yeah, the writing was awful, but after a while the very, very purple prose got dull.Really dull. Painfully, terribly dull. But anyway, here's my end-of-story review of ( Read more... )

I managed to cram in another installment of 50 Shades of Murky, Nasty Manipulation...Now Creeper and Miss Flubsy are having dinner with the Creeper's parental units, and uncool boundaries are being stomped right over, right in front of the 'rents. Then there's a scene in the boathouse that just makes me want to gouge my eyes out. It makes me want ( Read more... )

In my newest installment of my review of Fifty Shades of Urk, Creeper Grey gives a pretty red car to his lady love, Miss Flubsy. But even when giving an awesome present, Creeper can't help but be a total and complete dick about it. He's all, 'Your car is horrible and unsafe. I'm giving you a new one so you don't die or something, and I don't care ( Read more... )

Yeeees, I'm still going with this horrible, squicky thing. I'm a little proud I got this far, though it's been in small installments balanced out with Michael Pollan's "Omnivore's dilemma" to chase out the stupider bits. I present to you yesterday's posting ( Read more... )

It's been really fun reading this awful, dirty, dirty book and having my cow-irkers dissecting it while I blather on. It's been prompting some pretty hilarious discussions. Here's my notes from the last couple of chapters I managed to choke down before bed last night ( Read more... )
