This is the last of the three necklaces I bought in the Etsy Bushfire Appeal Shop two weeks ago. This one is from TangledAndShackled.
The first photo is me this morning; the second one is from the seller. The pendant is hand-made from shrinky-dink plastic; I assume that means she painted it herself. It’s strung with seed beads and some other funky crystals. I bought it thinking that it was ugly but that I loved it anyway. It’s fun!
100 Best Websites for Chocolate Fanatics. They linked to my Dahl site down there at #94. Neat!
@gadgetgirl70 YES. And bonus: Katie Holmes isn’t in this one! Win-win.
realized this morning that going to work doesn’t depress me anymore. Will prob wear off eventually, but it’s such a nice change.
just got back from vet where Petey got his last shot. He did NOT want to go. Poor Snookums’s bloody knuckles were the required sacrifice.
Just completed a 3.01 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/yQyUR #runkeeper
@tim0th We had them too! Except I half-burnt them.
really needs to listen to more TMBG at work. Use cases practically write themselves when you’re bopping to The Statue Got Me High.

I swear, I have had that EXACT SAME discussion on more than one occasion. I’m usually the one initially in favour of hedonism.

This is the second of the three necklaces I bought in the Etsy Bushfire Appeal Shop two weeks ago. (Here’s the first one.) This one is called “The Swallow’s Treasure” and it’s from Eclectic Moi. It’s not the type of thing I normally go for, yet for some reason the little bird really appealed to me.
The first photo is me this morning; the second one is from the seller. The swallow and chain are brass, and she carries a little Swarovski crystal beneath. Snookums was a little dubious about it at first. He said it reminded him of the joke in Monty Python and the Holy Grail about swallows carrying around coconuts. The seller’s description sounded as if she was referencing a story or myth though. So I did a bit of googling, and whoa! It’s a Korean folk tale! I had no idea. Isn’t that just perfect? I love it.
is waiting for awards to start. We could end up w/ 459-way tie unless there’s an upset. Don’t forget to count the dead people for me!
