Daisy - In Process


It's still a long way to the finish, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

This flower required from me weeks and weeks of work. I crocheted , unstitched and sewed it back on a few dozen times and still I'm not entirely pleased with the result.

It's amazing, is not it?

It's amazing, is not it? I found it in the net.




Everyone can crochet and knit!

Am I cursed?

What is going on?
I can't crochet petals for my new amigurumi project, the daisy. I Need 10 petals for a daisy.
I already made a diagram, try to crochet according to the scheme - and every time each petal came in a different size. I have already reached a couple dozen of tries.
Is there a curse on those petals?
:(

I'm confused

I find it very difficult to understand these kind of messages:
"You've reached 85% of your unlimited space"

Gamer - the movie review


So, I'm sick again.






I decided to see the "Gamer" movie - of course, because of Dexter. I mean because of Michael C. Hall.






The movie and especially the end of it make me laugh, really laugh.



In russian fandom (fantasy/sci-fi fans society) we have a really well-known character, named "Чорный Властелин", it means "The Dark Lord". This character is the quintessence of all main anti-heroes, a common collective image of all clichés.
Like Dr. Evil or Spector main guy etc'







Why do I talk about this? Because, according to common cliché, during the Last Epic Battle the Main Hero, The Good Guy will be surely defeated. And then The Dark Lord, instead of kill The Good Guy, just begins to explain how and why he won it and what comes next. Of course, while The Dark Lord so passionate talking about it, The Good Guy gathers his forces and kills The Dark Lord.
This scenario has its own chapter in humoristic "Manual for The Dark Lord": Just kill the good guy!"

And in this movie, Gamer, it's ends exactly according to the Dark Lord's script.




The best moment in the movie is, of course, the Ken Castle's song and the dance.

Interestingly, is he singing by himself?
I hope that the actor will not perform only the role of evil heroes in the future.

Dexter

Yesterday I was in "sick day" vacation, and I did a kind of act of heroism: I saw the entire first season of "Dexter".


I always had a kind of "issue" with serial killers - I love to watch movies or read books with racing after serial killers and finally catching them.


So what I have to say about Dexter?Apparently, I'm in love with this TV series.
The series really interesting, not expected (although I've read three books about Dexter a long time ago).
It is is hard to think about Dexter as a monster, he just too cute.
Of course, I have all sorts of philosophical insights on the subject ...


In short: highly recommended and very addictive.

P.S. I'm not a psycho
