mish-mash of non sequitors

Another reason to love Ace of Cakes: Mary Alice just said, "Operation Cookie Clusterfuck!"
I did not know this but Charm City Cakes sells more than just t-shirts and beanies, they also have drumsticks with the bakery's logo. ZOMG it would be super awesome for the friends who love Food Network AND own the Rock Band drum controller.

After seeing [livejournal.com profile] ziggybecket's awesome Chinese New Year photos, I totally want a new qipao. I really like this one but I think it's because it looks so much like my Grandmother's when I see pictures of her from the seventies. And this one looks a lot like my prom dress. Shhhh! I know I already have a gorgeous red qipao in my closet.

Somewhere along the line I graduated from being an eyeshadow whore to a cream eyeliner whore. I can't stop coveting this liner in Black Honey and these liners in Espresso Ink and Black Plum Ink.

The new Ace Attorney game isn't out until February 20 and I've already hit a plateau with The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Fucking Temple of the Ocean King. I finished Eternal Sonata a few days ago, and I'm debating whether or not to replay it in Encore Mode to get all the remaining score pieces, and possible gaming achievements.

I am intrigued by Professor Layton and the Curious Village. I'm a total sucker for these mystery/puzzle games and it comes out 10 days before Apollo Justice which might help me savor my lawyer adventures a little longer.

Karrie's picked up on a cute meme: just post a cap of your desktop.
VoilĂ !



I snagged the desktop icons here and the wallpaper from this person. I really didn't like the Cowboy Bebop movie but that was a very pretty scene, and there's enough contrast for me to actually read what my icons say. I've also learned it's very hard to find desktop wallpapers for 1680x1050 screens.

I lovelovelove Ace of Cakes! And be sure you catch the Food Network eps featuring the Neelys, one of the first families of Memphis barbecue!

The commericals for the Neelys make them look like a fun group to watch.

If you ever make it to my part of the West Coast, I am taking you to some awesome local BBQ, which Cary can attest.

Mark won an Xbox360 and a copy of Rock Band from a raffle at his company's annual meeting. He brought them home yesterday. My reaction was basically OMGWTF.

You might have luck with the /w/, /wg/, or /hr/ boards on 4chan.

This is my work desktop. It is full of clutter and PDFs of book. And Habanero-tan.

XBOX 360 eh? Time for Eternal Sonata!

The desktop is adorable.

Congrats on the Xbox! Let me know when Mark sets up his Xbox Live account so I can friend him/you guys, and send you random ass messages.

Here's my work desktop wallpaper; I'd post a screencap but I only have MS Paint on this thing.

Is that on the new laptop??

[identity profile] teapotgirl.livejournal.com 2008-02-08 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Yesh! And it's so shiny!
I need to bring it to knitting so I can leech the next door's wifi.

LOL on Eternal Sonata - I finished the game a few weeks ago and I'm also mildly curious about the playing the Encore version, but seriously don't have time to dedicate to it at the moment. I'll probably look into it again after Wondercon tho.

I started a new game and just got to the part where Polka meets Frederic. So far no new material though a lot of the walkthroughs say the new stuff is very obvious.

I've also got a save file in the Mysterious Unison and I've gotten 1 of the 3 achievements. Most of the characters are at 56 but every fight feels like a boss fight. It's a pain.

Oh I love the red peony qipao.

OMG, I so love Mary Alice. Plus, I'm drunk. Whoo!

LULZ you are DRUNK

Also, I'm too drunk to do a cap of my desk top right now, but anyway, my desk top at home just has Hiro from Heroes, but my one at school has the most adorable bunny on it, so maybe I'll do it there next week. I've used the backspace key in the last 30 seconds more than I ever have in my life. DRUNK.
