Brand New Day

July 17th, 2008 10 comments


Took a little break from Jayne hats to indulge in some foolishness inspired by Dr. Horrible Act II.

Until I hear otherwise, I’m going to assume it’s kosher to make Dr. Horrible icons. I don’t normally make icons, but this show is inspirational.

Feel free to use them to your heart’s content, although I’d appreciate a nod wherever it is you usually credit folks for your icons.

These are up on flickr. I’ll be adding more, although we all know it’s not about MAKING icons, it’s about TAKING icons.

Brief updates.

Brief updatelets!

Dr. Horrible part two comes out tomorrow. Or tonight at midnight, if you’ve got a late night planned.

Someone in the Charlotte Browncoats pointed this out – Dr. Horrible has a Serenity model hanging in his window. Heh.

The Charlotte Browncoats are having a picnic Saturday which happens to be taking place at the park directly across the street from my house, so I reckon we’ll go to that. There’s a nice playground for Em.

Em’s in “dramatic action” camp this week. Monday, they tried on costumes and did a dance. Tuesday, they made masks and puppets. Yesterday, they sang a selection from High School Musical. Em’s solo: saying “Ay, que fabulosa!” She seems to be having a good time. That’s good, because if I’d realized how far away from our house this camp was when we signed up, I might have had second thoughts. Between camp and errands, I’m driving a good 40 miles a day. Al Gore’s going to slash my tires.

Enjoying watching a lot of Clean House, and also watching Carrier, which I recommend.

Just got done reading The Last Colony by John Scalzi. He’s a very Heinleinian writer. “Updatelets” and “Heinleinian” – I’m making up words left and right here tonight! That’s what happens when I drink pomegranate tea at night instead of coffee.

I made my whopping one pound goal today and set another goal. Still doing Couch to 5k faithfully. It’ll be much harder to do next week when there are no camps and I don’t have any time in the morning to myself. By the time my husband’s home, it’s broiling hot and I just don’t have it in me. I guess I can always do wii running.

Okay, bedtime.
