cblj_backupFRIDAAAAAY PHOTO POOOOOOST
Icons first! Some images are taken from S3 filming for White Collar. I don't consider them spoilery, but those who are especially avoidant may wish not to click. Icons are free for use; credit is nice but not required.
Teasers!
Salvador Dali is actually quite a striking figure. So is the Black Star of Queensland, a black star sapphire formerly used as a doorstop.
WHITECOLLARRRRR. And some Sherlock, for lulz.
Pugs and Dorgis, as promised!
You know, as much as I have moaned and complained about this week, it started out pretty good. I got on the train on Monday morning, curled up next to the in-wall heater with my book, and looked up and remembered that this is the view I see every morning.
I also do the Skeleton Crossword, but only on Mondays, because crosswords get harder throughout the week and, well, you can see how I wrestle with even the Monday edition.
This picture did not at all come out. It's supposed to be of a wooden doodah in the window of the Hard Rock Hotel downtown. But I kind of like the way the model blends into the skyscrapers nearby.
Last weekend I tried to make thumbprint cookies. Somehow they lost their cohesion and ended up thumbprint pancakes. (Still tasted good though.)
I also made summer pudding. This smells even more awesome than it looks.
This podium used to have a sign on it. It was painted over this week; I guess the Cubs don't love us anymore. The affair was brief but torrid.
Someone should start a GoodAdviceGraffiti tumblr. (In the meantime, have an icon.)
This week, my company ordered 2500 packs of company-branded gum for promotional purposes. You want to know what 2500 packs of company-branded gum packaged for shipping looks like? Wonder no more.
So, these images contain what could be considered a spoiler, given that they're based off a picture taken during White Collar S3 filming. It just looked so much like a romance novel, you guys, I couldn't resist. (I definitely couldn't resist mockery.)

One of the Corgi females went into heat, and so her mom penned up her Aussie male, Leo. He's big enough she could fence him in with moveable cattle pen sections. There was just one problem.
The corgi female walked right in and took advantage of him.

Never enough dignity.

no subject
Date: 2011-04-01 04:46 pm (UTC)I don't think I stopped it at all, actually. I do tend to rewatch things a few times over, though, and pick up different things each time, so I assume I'll get whatever I missed later. I did LOL a lot when I realised that Percy Percy was guy-who-turned-into-an-Ood.

Date: 2011-04-01 04:37 pm (UTC)Also, for the record, the Black Star of Queensland only became a doorstop because Ianto got fed up with Jack fondling it in bed. It is, of course, a burnt-out version of the Medusa Star Sapphire. ;P

We still have no idea how it happened.

Date: 2011-04-01 10:57 pm (UTC)Who-what of Queensland? *googles* Wow. Wowy wow. LOL a doorstop! I wonder how many things like that have been found out here and not recognised?
