They’re a risky business, almond croissants. Sure, they look all delicious with their almonds on top, but it’s impossible to tell how much almond paste you’re going to get until you bite into them. I’m proposing a revolution in almond croissant design, where they’re sold in two halves, and food colouring is used in the paste just so you can see what you’re getting yourself into.
Sudo is now 16.5 weeks, and he’s changed so much. He’s super clever, and so energetic. Walking is much better, interaction with other dogs is greatly improved, and house training is about 95% success. I almost understand why people have children – such a sense of satisfaction watching them learn behaviour you want them to adopt.
Anyway, we’re now playing in the garden and he loves it. It tires him out, too, which means that we love it!
If I had my way, I’d never work. I’d just stay home all day, watch Scarface 50 times, eat a [fake] turkey sandwich, and have sex all fucking day. Then I’d dress up like a clown, and surprise kids at schools. Then I’d take a dump in the back of a movie theater, and just wait until somebody sat in it. Hear it squish. That’s funny to me. Then I’d paint, and read, and play violin. I’d climb the mountains, and sing the songs that I like to sing. But I don’t got that kinda time.
It’s nearly scary how much better-behaved he’s getting. If we’re in the kitchen with him (still don’t trust him to make it outside from the lounge in time) and doing something else, he’ll quite happily sit by us and nap or play or coerce us into playing. He’s gone, very quickly, from quite frequently being a pain in the ass, to hardly ever. Dogs are great.
Iconpaper is a great website. Relatively trustworthy source of customisation stuff for OSX. Browsing today, I came across a large-type Adium theme, Bloc, which suited me down to the ground. It’s tracked on Macthemes; basically a goldmine for people who like to tinker with how OSX looks.
After having had a couple of small problems with the original, I sleuthed to try and get in touch with the author of the theme. Turns out, he’s a very nice bloke who agreed to do me a theme in the same style as my website. Whilst it may be difficult to believe, I love the way this site looks, and I couldn’t be happier with it (sad, right?)! I’m pretty sure that those of you who use Adium and aren’t lame should give it a go. If you don’t like my personalised variant, there are some other great colour schemes bundled with it.
No real reason for this post, other than a big thanks to krayon (the author) and to try and throw some more links his way.
Of why I married this woman. She’s trying to teach the cat that Sookie and Bill love each other in True Blood. All the cat wants to do is sleep and look at me disapprovingly.
