Okay, it's official, I'm having way too much fun doodling these little guys. I wonder why I didn't try sooner! I don't really sketch like I should (it shows--the stiff poses doing nothing, ha!) but this is kind of like a puzzle to me that I'm enjoying cracking. 'What would a leopard kid look like? A buffalo?" and so on.
I think I'm gonna work the elephant kid into a little illo for fun. Thinking nerds eating lunch in the schoolyard-- maybe a turtle will be his friend!
Part of the first batch of internet meme embroidery. I'm thinking of working these in to a big quilt or wallhanging (with blocks made to look like computers). Each is about 4" by 6". Blogged.
This is the end of an era...I finally tackled discarding all my old engineering textbooks a few weeks ago, but letting go of the volumes of hand-written class notes was hard for some reason. I haven't looked at these things in nearly 25 years, when they got put up high on a shelf when I bought my house. Seriously; they "sparked no joy", but for some reason I couldn't part with them. I wonder if they represent some disappointment in my career, and how it never really met my own expectations. Maybe holding on to these things was some way of hoping for the day I'd do greater things.
Today, I was procrastinating against a bigger foe, so my old habits came to the fore... do something equally uncomfortable... and so, my old notes, papers and signs of my investment in becoming an engineer are tossed to the recycle heap.
I can be forgiven, then, for keeping a few digital images, right?

This week has sort of been a downer so far. I got my bio test back, and I made a 72! Then I got my honors history test back (the one I thought I did good on), and I made a 75. I've been studying my butt off for this? =(
This picture kind of made me angry too. It was my favorite, and upon closer inspection was very fuzzy. Can nothing go right!?
I still have piles of work to do, and I have a honors government test on thursday. o_0
The end of the Nerd 80085 Hunt just 1 week away, so if you sexy geeks and naughty nerds want a passing grade, you better grab your study buddies and head on over to Cleavage!
You don't need to be a genius to know that 1L hunt items are a great bargain!
Had this idea floating around for a while, but I did not get around to building it until yesterday. I love the Lamborghini Countach and the G1 Transformers character Sideswipe, so I wanted to make Nerdly into the coolest car ever. Also threw in a nod to penny racers with the overall proportions. Good luck to all who entered and I hope you enjoy! Will post more pictures of just the Countach later.

I won Tommy's Nerdly for leaving a good comment on his blog and be being the car customizer that I am knew that even Nerdly can be made cooler with flames and exhaust pipes.
Thanks for the prize, Tommy!
This is a student cat who stays home reading on Saturday nights; he's 100% nerd but he doesn't care about it. He'd rather read than go out and get drunk, and I bet he's argentinian because there's a 'mate' next to his book.. --> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yerba_mat%c3%a9
Just a nerd on a fabulous Friday!
