Remember...

...this post about the amazingly gorgeous illustrations that tanaudel is doing for The Dalek Game?



Well when I woke up this morning and discovered Neil Gaiman had been tweeting about it, I might have had a little bit of a squee.

Oh yes indeedy.

Check out the hashtag #dalekbooks. I'm in love with this tweet from daibhidc.

I am currently...

...so deeply in love with this that it hurts.

The Dalek Game by tanaudel (not only for the illustrations, but also for her "Fire and Hemlock" inspired name)



I stumbled across her dalek illustrations on Flickr while I was drooling over these heavenly Mucha inspired prints



Now I just have to work out: a) where I can put them in my house, b) what I have to not buy in order to afford them.

PAD Week 3...

...16/01/11 to 22/01/11.

PAD Week 2...

...09/01/11 to 15/01/11.

PAD Week 1...

...01/01/11 to 08/01/11.

One of the things...

...I'm doing this year is taking part in a Photo a Day (PAD) project as inspired by the lovely @sarahgb

My photos are all going up on my Flickr in a PAD collection but I'm also going to try and post them here weekly too.

But so I don't suddenly overwhelm you with posts and you faint with shock that I'm blogging again, I shall set the backlog to appear over the next few days and then attempt to do each weeks batch on a Sunday.

Probably.

Barring the week a month from now when I'll be on holiday.

Squuueeeeeeeeee.

*ahem*

This evening...

...has been a relaxing one.

I have finally caught up with reading all the lovely blogs captured in my Google Reader. I also found some delightful new blogs after playing with the Black Boxes widget a little more. Plus I went delving back into the archives of one new discovery and read some things that really rang true for my life at the moment. So I'll be thinking on those a bit more.

I've tatted about with my sidebar a little, and added a hopeful something at the bottom of my blog.

I also finally added notes to my blog header picture on Flickr, so if you ever wanted to know what anything was in that shot you can now find out. (Added bonus - if you go to the next item in the photostream you get to see live action kitties being funny and cute).

My statue photos are still very much a work in progress but I have a day off tomorrow so will do some more organising then.

Oh dear, watching that video has given the little darlings ideas, WWIII has just broken out in the hallway - I'm off to break it up.

Esme...

Sunburnt feet and legs...

...are hurting more than I'd expected.

I've never burnt my legs before and I was so careful to slather my arms, back and face in cream that having burnt legs is annoying.

My right ankle disappeared last night cos it was so swollen. I like my ankles and was not happy to see one of them go.

These are my feet today after a day at work (in my slightly too big shoes that are currently too tight)



After sleeping with my feet on three pillows last night my ankle had looked normal this morning, but now it has gone huge again - a good reason for lying on the sofa this evening I feel.

I bought this today, so I have something good to read while I flake out and recover. The cover is just as beautiful as her first book too!

I have added Oulton Park/feet/rain/badges photos to my Flickr too.
