I in no way ever update this anymore, but this is just too wonderful to ignore.

So I didn’t say anything about this because I was waiting for it to heal but…I finally got my octopus tattoo! I love it more than I ever thought I would. It’s beautiful and scientific and everything I ever wanted. Much thanks to Klem at O’Reilly Tattoo in Santa Cruz for making this possible.

I don't use the tumblr-machine much anymore (grad school doesn't believe in allowing one time off to do things that are actually fun), but something this beautiful this needs rebloging : ) X

Whilst on the subject of new stuff being released for the Olympics... I love Muse as much as the next person with any actual taste, but seriously? This is the song we're going to hear each time anything vaguely Olympic happens for the next 2 months? Even for Muse it's a little... Silly. Or, to put it in the words of the brother - "are they taking the fucking piss?"

May have just gone and ordered the vinyl... Roll on 12th of August : )

Took them long enough...

Given that K is potentially down for a week or so - stupid technology - it seemed rude not to try and get into this again. The genuinely exciting levels of procrastination moving into a new room causes may have something to do with this too.

Look what came in the mail today. Size freakin’ Q!! I’m going to rule the world with this crochet scepter of a hook.

[monkeyfacedeel]

I expect giant crochet scepter made things of loveliness next month : )

Huh. Kinda forgot this existed.

This things we find when writing essays... Yep, this is a panel of Batman shooting a pod of dolphins. Which were trained by a villain to use c4 to kill some poor person. Things were simpler back then...

Attempting to write an essay on the transition from Batman to Bateman in American literary violence. Failing badly. Instead listening to endless Jon Coulton. Joy?

And…we have a winner!!!!

(I went by reblogs only and from the bottom up)

So Madness and Delirium look out in your inbox for a message from me. Everyone else thanks for playing!!!

((funny story, my boyfriend actually won twice, but I told him he wasn’t allowed to be prancing around England in a heart headband))

I was robbed I say, robbed!

Giveaway timmmeeee!

Sorry this has been so long coming. I get into midterm mode and become a little recluse.

Anyways, this is a handmade heart headband. The yarn is acrylic and it’s on a none adjustable crochet cord. But don’t worry there is some stretch to it. The colors are pink, gray, and white and the cord itself is also white.

I’m willing to ship anywhere in the world so this will be global.

RULES:  1. You need to be following me to apply.

2. Reblog this post to apply. You can do so up to 3 times.

3. Have your ask box on, if you win I’ll contact you that way. You have a week to get back to me, otherwise I’ll move on.

I’ll be picking someone through a random number generator on Friday next week. Have fun!

So addicted to this webcomic. Gah.

Oh god, they just get better...

If only games were still advertised this way...

The many, many, variants of this song have become something of a staple in the homestead in the past week. Tom Jones's terrifying vision is perhaps the most memorable, but can't help but smiling each time I hear Cave do this...

[monkeyfacedeel]

Mmmmmmmm... Stone Roses : ) And, you know, Snow Patrol. And Killers. And Madness, Inspirals, Happy Mondays, Frank Turner...
