I Met The Walrus

Oscar nominee for Best Animated Short in 2008.

You know that no one hates jumping on the bandwagon more than me, but oh mannnnnn. 

Pushing Daisies is praised by the blogosphere (and by the rest of the world) as being the greatest show to meet an untimely demise since Arrested Development. 

And I love it. I want to shout it from the mountaintops. You can watch it instantly on Netflix. YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO.

Ella Minnow Pea by Mark Dunn is a progressively lipogrammic epistolary fable.

I cannot take credit for that sentence, that is the extended title of the book.

This was the kind of book where you finish the last few pages with a giant smile on your face, because it was the cutest and most clever book you’ve ever read. The wordplay, the overt messages relating to religious tyranny, the resolution in the end! I loved it all. 

I really don’t want to give anything away about the plot. Read it for yourself. It took me two afternoons. You will be so pleased.

(And I know I’ve been changing it around a lot, but the rest of my summer reading list can be found here.)

Completed my 3rd skirt reconstruction this summer. The first two I simply hemmed. (Does that count as a reconstruction? In some circles, I suppose.)

This one was turning a pair of ladies size 12 shorts into a pencil skirt. (It’s really a wrap skirt that looks like a pencil skirt.)

It’s not a perfect, seamless job, but it’s definitely wearable. I’m feeling pretty accomplished right now.
