Stitching! Zombies! Anger!

Jul 12, 2011 17:23

Yaay! My Inception cross stitch is coming on in leaps and bounds, as is only fitting. I need to take it out of the hoop to get pictures now, which is encouraging. You can see a bit of Arthur's head now, and his gun, and I was very excited to realise I've already reached out to the left hand edge. I need to go order some more of the darkest blue thread though - I've already used nearly a whole skein of it, and I'll apparantly use nearly 60 metres of just that colour in the whole piece. Eeep. The angry-making stage of large cross stitch project procedings must be just around the corner...

Maybe this project will be different and I'll love it the whole way through. Maybe.

Anyway, right now, it's awesome.




Here's how it looked over the weekend:

Zombie meme! Go look at your blog/journal. Find the last Fandom-related thing you posted. The characters in that post are now your team-mates in the Zombie Apocalypse. How fucked are you?

It depends on what you define as my last fandom post - if the smoking picspam counts then I have 23 handsome men and 2 beautiful women to keep me company, so I think we'd be fine as long as these aren't those newfangled fast moving zombies - so many smokers might get a bit wheezy. But if it has to be a post that specifically mentions characters and not actors, then this post has Bane, Doctor Who, Community, Hawaii Five-0 and Attack the Block. Between Steven McGarret, Troy and Abed, and a bunch of chavs I am totally fine, and that's without even counting on the Doctor to fix that whole pesky apocalyose deal.

And finally, anyone interested in the whole News of the World/Murdoch/News International hacking scandal should check out John Finnemore's blog for a link to the audio of his piece on last Friday's Now Show, and a transcript of the whole thing. It is a rousing bit of invective and I don't think we should let this sorry mess slip away without kicking up as much fuss as we all possibly can.
