I am so excited! I grabbed a MNF Nanuri head from PuffsxPlus, and I am so excited! He got here today, and despite the fact I've been planning girly things for my Nanuri, I have come to the conclusion I want him to be a boy :)
The head is seriously just the cutest though :D Hopefully this boy won't have to wait too long for a faceup and his own things (including a body!)
if he had grey hair, he'd look quite a bit like husband!
and how come i didn't notice those little purple hairs from my wallet all over him - that'll teach me to carry minifigs around in my pocket next to my wallet.

Another in my 100x 'black and white' series.
Inside the bell tower at El Campanario centre in Corralejo, Fuerteventura.
I thought New Year's Day was a good time to do this.
Right. Here goes.
Thirteen things you probably didn't know about me:
- I've pretty much always detested school, or most aspects of it. When I was around 10 I begged my parents to home school me. I'm glad they said no.
- I do not do mornings. My perfect sleeping hours are from 4am - 12pm. I think I've been on time to school about 3 times so far this school year.
- I am very very verrryy shy. I just don't talk to people I'm not 100% comfortable with. The internet gives me a sort of barrier for that. It may seem that it's a tool for me to be someone else with but really it lets me absolutely be me. If that makes sense.
- I have a collosal fear of crustaceans. I don't know how or when it developed but even thinking about lobsters makes me shudder.
- I'm addicted to Yahoo Answers
- I have OCD. When I was about 12 it got really bad and made me do stuff I'll probably never tell anyone about. Nowadays it barely effects me - I just have a numbers thing..when I'm walking or sitting with people I like to be in the middle and with things like volumes they have to be on an even number. I also don't like stuff that doesn't match.
- A few years ago I desperately wanted to be an actress. I thought it was the only thing I'd ever want to do. Now I think I'd hate it.
- I'm still awaiting my first kiss
- I have around 14 nieces and nephews and 2 great nieces.
- My initials are G.I.R.L
- On every 1st of the month I pinch myself because I once heard it brings you luck for the month.
- The only food that causes me to gain any weight is cheese.
- I can't stop watching Hannah Montana. I hate it. It's absolute poo and not funny but I can't. stop. watching!

"Gosling #13" by Patti Deters. This cute young baby goose is sitting in the murky swampy water full of duckweed, looking right at the camera as if to say "what are you looking at?!" If you look close, you can see a drip of water falls off her bill. She was photographed in Stockholm, Wisconsin on a spring morning. Selective color and a light bokeh background have been applied for artistic effect. Please enjoy more of my (waterfowl, birds, nature, more!) mages at patti-deters.pixels.com. This particular artwork is for sale on a variety of products at patti-deters.pixels.com/featured/gosling-13-patti-deters.... (printed and shipped WITHOUT watermark) through Fine Art America (FAA) which offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
43/365 Battenburg is my absolute favourite!
The tea set is made by Midwinter and the pattern is Cassandra by Jessie Tait from the late fifties - early sixties
Bosco joined the family a year ago this past Thanksgiving day. He weighed in at 4lbs then and has grown to an impressive 22lbs now. He's a year and a half and still very much a puppy.
Shot using 2 Calumet Genesis monolights, one bounced off an umbrella and on in a softbox, both positioned in a "V" form with an SB-28 in the background.
Hóa ra số mệnh đã an bày, nguyện với lòng đi trọn một quãng đường cùng anh. Vậy mà anh lại nắm tay dắt em bước đủ một vòng, quay lại vị trí ban đầu ... :)
___________________________________________________________________________
Các cô gái trẻ chọn cho mình sự ảo tưởng về chàng hoàng tử và tình yêu trọn đời trọn kiếp, đắm chìm vào những câu truyện cổ tích có một thứ tình cảm với kết thúc trọn vẹn tốt đẹp. Nhưng các cô gái à, tình yêu mãi mãi không xa rời của hoàng tử ấy suy cho cùng cũng chỉ tồn tại trên thế gian này bởi 1 lý do duy nhất ... Đó là chẳng ai kể tiếp câu chuyện phía sau, khi nụ hôn kết thúc, người đọc lả giọng và phim ngừng chiếu? Khi hoàng tử sau những ân ái và ái tình nhạt phai, khẽ nói với nàng công chúa rằng:" Anh ra đi sẽ tốt cho em hơn..." :)

Day 13/365
Today, I discovered the greatness of President's Choice cookies... these are (in their own words) "The Decadent Chocolate Chunk Cookies"
And what better way to enjoy them than with a tall glass of ummm... glowing?? milk...
I seem to have this habit of putting food I'm about to eat into a light tent....
Strobist info: snooted 430EX @1/2 power directed at top of glass triggered by a 580EXII
Second only to Apollo 11 in fame, Apollo 13 was, when it was launched, seen as almost routine: Apollo 11 had put men on the Moon and Apollo 12 had proven it could be done twice. Few people outside of space enthusiasts and NASA were thinking much of Apollo 13 when it was launched on April 11, 1970. Onboard were the three crew: command pilot Jim Lovell (veteran of three previous spaceflights), lunar module (LM) pilot Jack Swigert, and command module (CM) pilot Fred Haise. Their destination was the Fra Mauro highlands on the Moon.
Other than a early engine shutoff on the second stage (which could have been more catastrophic than originally believed), the launch and everything required for Apollo 13 to go to the Moon went smoothly. On April 14, however, not long after a television broadcast--that was watched by no one outside NASA, as none of the networks were interested in carrying it--Mission Control requested Swigert turn on the stirring fans in the service module's oxygen tanks. What no one knew was that the insulation on the wires in Apollo 13's second SM oxygen tank were damaged: when Swigert switched on the fans, the wires shorted. This instantly ignited the oxygen tank, which exploded. While luckily the explosion was vented into space (which also snuffed the fire), it destroyed one oxygen tank and severely damaged the other. Apollo 13 was now in trouble.
No one knew what had happened; Lovell reported "Houston, we've had a problem," and at first it was thought that either the spacecraft had been hit by a meteor or it was an instrument problem. When Lovell spotted oxygen being vented to space, however, both crew and Mission Control knew that the situation was now desperate. There was no thought of landing on the Moon: now it was a fight just to survive. There had been some vague ideas about using the LM as a "lifeboat" for the crew, but it had never really been tried. Now NASA had no choice. To conserve as much power as possible, the CM was shut down and all three men moved into the LM.
Problem after problem began to crop up, each requiring something entirely new to be invented on the spot. Getting the crew back to Earth involved them moving to an new orbit and using the Moon's gravity to slingshot them home--but the LM's engine had to be used, as the SM's might've been damaged. (It was done successfully, and Apollo 13's crew set a record for the furthest human beings have ever gone from Earth--over 248,000 miles away.) Once that was done, the rising levels of carbon dioxide meant that a scrubbing system had to be devised using whatever could be found on the spacecraft. The crew's water had to be rationed, leading to Haise developing a urinary tract infection. Finally, the temperature in the minimally-operating LEM dropped to 38 degrees Fahrenheit: the crew, without any sort of cold-weather clothing, simply had to endure it.
But endure it they did, and all the innovations and improvisations by crew and Mission Control worked: Apollo 13 splashed down safely in the Pacific Ocean on April 17. The near disaster spurred worldwide interest and concern for the astronauts, and for a short time, renewed interest in the Apollo program--though only four of the planned seven additional missions after Apollo 13 were flown, the others cancelled due to budget cuts. Neither Lovell, Swigert or Haise flew in space again; Swigert passed away in 1982.
Interest in Apollo 13, much like the Apollo program itself, waned after the program wound down. Lovell wrote a book in the early 1990s titled "Lost Moon", which spurred interest in a movie, "Apollo 13," which came out in 1995. This made the "successful failure" of the mission, in some ways, more well known than the success of the rest of the Apollo program.
After the mission, the only surviving part of Apollo 13--the Command Module, "Odyssey"--was disassembled and each part examined during the investigation into the accident. The capsule itself was reassembled and placed on display at the Kennedy Space Center; the interior was reassembled later and put in one of the "boilerplate" trainers and displayed at the Museum of Natural History at Louisville, Kentucky. In 1983, Odyssey was sent to the Museum of Air and Space in Paris, France, where it would remain until 1995. After the popularity of "Apollo 13" the film, Odyssey was brought home and moved to the Kansas Cosmosphere in Hutchinson, where it was reunited with the interior, taken from the boilerplate. A 12-year restoration project resulted, and finally the complete Apollo 13 went on display at the Cosmosphere in 2007.
My 2020 trip was delayed and rescheduled due to coronavirus, but eventually a friend and I decided to go through the Midwest (where the museums were open). I looked into the Cosmosphere, and when I learned it had the real Apollo 13 (to say nothing of Gemini 10 and Liberty Bell 7!), my friend--who is a huge space enthusiast--was onboard for making a planned 3-day trip into a 6-day one. It was worth the extra days, mileage and sore butt to see the real thing. The restoration was beautifully done, and to be able to look inside and see where the real Lovell, Swigert and Haise sat on their mission--words cannot describe it.
