Sundries!

Here's some stuff I've been looking at lately:

*Kaylee-inspired cupcakes. They are adorable and look hella delicious. Hey future roommate? When you get around to that Dalek cupcake you promised me, I want some of these too. :D

*Next time I am in New York City, I am doing this. Because seriously? So cool. SO FUCKING COOL!

*Lady GaGa done in steampunk!. Worth reading for the renamings of all her songs especially.

*When Dog was trying to come up with something to write for his 750words (he too is attempting the August challenge, go us), I told him that I could try to come up with a drabbleprompt, but it would probably be something stupid, like "Oh no! The zombie has a spatula!

I love my friends so damn much!

((See also the last time I did this, when I told Brenton he should write an account of the gripping war between the plants and the zombies. Also good!))

Oh, and by the way, I am hoping to live in the Chicago Museum of Industry and Science for a month. If there's anyone out there who'd like to beta-read my essay for me before I send it, that would be awesome, and I would love you forever.

Because guys? I really want to do this thing.

MOOP!

Re: cupcakes: Meh. Color me underwhelmed. Cupcakes with a tiny umbrella that happen to have imperfectly centered icing. Especially since it looks like that's a shop that specializes in cupcakes, I'd expect more. They do look delicious though.

I'll happily read your essay if you will not be mad at me if I decide I want to enter this contest, as well...? :)

I think giving up my friends for a month would be very hard -- but sciencing for prizes would be worth it!

Right now the only things i'm interested in reading right now is something of yours (Or Rtizy's or Swinger's) with little exception. However, i'd be a terrible beta reader 'cuase i very nearly am completely incapable of doing constructive criticism >.>

i, too, should miss you very much if you were gone for a month (heck, i've missed you whilst you've been in Chicago ;P)

I am *so* glad someone worthy is trying for the MSI Month-long thingy! I thought about it for a microsecond, but decided that it would not be for me.

So many good lucks coming your way from this camp. Any help I can provide - just ask! So yes, I'd love to read your essay! :)

I saw that before. Living in a Museum would be (um... you already used 'awesome') spectacular. I'm not sure how much help I can be, but I'm certainly willing to take a look at your essay.

I made a post (http://community.livejournal.com/quieta_movere/13025.html) in [livejournal.com profile] quieta_movere about our challenge. I plan to post there about it.
