Woooo, last Halloween of my High School career was fun!
Fun, and really stressful too.  I got manic panic dye all inside the shower and my dad flipped.  Spent this morning and early noon scrubbing it out with rubbing alcohol and stuff.  I am now banned from ever dying my hair at home again.  If I ever want to do something AWESOME with it again (which I will.....I freaking love my hair like this!  I wish I could keep it blue instead of getting it washed out!) I have to get it done at a salon or at a friend's house.

BUT....

It was really worth it because not only will I have awesome shocking blue hair for the rest of today, but also because while I was hanging out with my friend last night, we went to see Cirque du Freak.  It was great, don't listen to the critics or the box office numbers. 

I will post pictures of my costume later.  Now, I must go to the laundramat (I know I spelled that wrong) with my mom because our dryer died.

Did I mention that I love my blue hair?  XD

Ironically, I had just finished cutting out the felt stars for my Coraline sweater when I found this on Neil Gaiman's journal:

'Coraline' director Henry Selick leaves Laika Studio

.......

Okay, well...that was really unexpected.  I'm just going to go hug my Jack Skellington plushie and Coraline key and mourn.......

I just can't get my head around the idea that Henry Selick is no longer leading the team of animators he's been working with for so many years....I hope that whenever he does his next project, he will be able to hire at least some of them despite the split.  I just can't imagine him directing a stop-motion picture without the guys that worked on The Nightmare Before Christmas and Coraline with him.

EDIT: My mom just gave me permission to use manic panic on my hair!  Yes!

You know how people curse alcohol to the ends of the earth after getting a hangover?
I'm feeling that way about movie popcorn right now.
My mom and I got to the theater around mid afternoon to see 9. Neither one of us had gotten the chance to grab anything to eat (we were originally just going out for a hair appointment, and my mom decided to surprise me by taking me to the film), and the movie was supposed to start in only twenty minutes, so we went and got a large bag of popcorn to split instead of two small bags. The trailers hadn't even started by the time my mom and I got halfway through the bag despite my efforts to save some for the movie. About 10-20 minutes into the movie, my mom went and got a refill. And now, I've got a very strong, lingering taste of synthetic popcorn butter in my mouth. Also, about five minutes ago I discovered the health risks behind that stuff (apparently the fumes from the fake butter actually gives the factory workers a disease that causes lung failure), so....yeah, not feeling too thrilled with that synthetic butter.
On with the spoiler free review )

Finally, thanks to Erica I was able to find out some very interesting back story  on the scientist in the film.  If you see the movie, this link will provide some very intriguing details afterward. movie9.proboards.com/index.cgi

Icons to come soon.

From the design to the features, what should the perfect kid-friendly laptop include? What would you leave out?

It would come with videos of kids playing outside and reading books.  Then it would shut down and end with a screen saying "Get off your lazy bum, go outside and have a real childhood!"

Seriously, that's just one more screen to keep them in the house all day.  Children should be riding bikes, playing ball, reading, and interacting with each other, not wasting away in front of some pixels.  We already have videogames and TV.  Why give them one more thing to hypnotize them?  If the plan is to create a laptop with educational material, then fine, go for it.  Leapfrog has primitive versions of that anyway.  But don't give them mindless games for the sake of entertaining them.  It's bad enough I see little kids with cell phones, texting away instead of talking.

Here are the Coraline icons I promised. I wanted to do more "creepy" icons than what I ended up with, but I'm thinking of saving those for a later date. Specifically a post completely dedicated to icons with a spooky vibe some time in October. I need to keep working on making good icons out of screencaps with really low lighting anyway.


(also, this time I have the numbers placed above the icons. hope this doesn't confuse anyone) 
Click and proceed.... )

Feedback, as always, is appreciated.
And I wish 21 would stop staring at me.... o_o


EDIT:
Why is there a massive gap between my hotlink warning and the icon table? o.O  I can't seem to fix it.

From Dr. Polidori's Lord Ruthven to Stephenie Meyer's Edward Cullen, the annals of vampire lore are filled with attractive, charming bloodsuckers. Which one would you most want to be bitten by?

S P I K  E !
    From Buffy!


He would kick Edward's sparkly ass in two seconds!  (No offense to those that prefer their men shiny)  And look ten times sexier whilst doing it.  With character depth, a roguish exterior, and that sexy cockney accent, I don't really care if he's trying to eat me or turn me.
