yummy trek

want :: strangely hot...or hotly strange?


I'm not sure, but Zachary Quinto makes Spock a hot property. Can't wait for the flick...since Heroes has been a little disappointing lately. Meh. As long as he doesn't age at the same rate/path as "Original Spock". I think we're good.

new arrivals - from the UK

My etsy items finally arrived today. I couldn't be happier with our new teddy and rabbit; both handmade by Jenny. THANK YOU! They are perfect. We're working out names, but leaning towards Higgins (for the bear). Nothing beats handmade crafts :-)

did you watch SYTYCD?

I'm glad Mark stayed and happy that Comfort left (for the second time). 3 more shows. GO MARK! I think Tim Burton should hire Mark to being his next movie, whatever it is.

I also think Mark and Chelsie should be partners again ;-)

want :: cutest. things. evar.


I've discovered moo cards and trading them on flickr, and I found Jenny, who has the cutest creations ever. She makes all kinds of amazing "softies", bunnies, felties, and other items, some of which can be purchased on her etsy page. You can also check out her blog. Her little animals make cute baby presents, and she has neat ipod cozies, too. Thanks, Jenny!

My favorites from her collections:

NASA makes "visible" magnetic fields



Magnetic fields are invisible, at least usually. But Scientists from NASA's Space Sciences Laboratory have made them visible as "animated photographs," using sound-controlled CGI and 3D compositing. check out the story from Gizmodo. more pictures here. WAY COOL.

it is done.

the pictures say it all. She didn't need to say it-- she should be happy to get the #2 post.


Go Obama. I've been a supporter since 2004.

dogs are smart. really.

from cuteoverload:

Writes Maggie C.: "Sheepdogs are trained to obey their master's every word. So when farmer David Kennard decided one of those words would be "Spring", his dogs did not hesitate. They rounded up the flock on the hills of Mr Kennard's north Devon farm and, with a little help from their master, created a picture that reminds us that, whatever the weather, this is officially the first weekend of Spring. The scene did call for a careful scattering of feed to make the sheep form themselves in the shapes of the six letters..."




"...However, it was down to the team of Collies—who everyone knows border on the brilliant—to have the last word. They circled the 200-strong flock and kept them from wandering off-message.

Three of David's five working dogs – Mist, Fern and Jake – were employed to help create the perfect lettering, which took three hours to achieve."

want :: edible hello kitty

Wow. I came across a blog called Hello Kitty Hell and its insane. Its all about this guy's constant battle with the hell that is the ubiquity and cuteness of Hello Kitty. Check out the bento box creations that are waaaay too intense to look at, let alone eat. I think I would pass out if I found these in my lunch-time bento.

Pretty funny site, check it out.
