Oh dear



A tiger calendar, never opened from 2001. Why did I buy a tiger calendar years ago when I wasn't planning on doing tigers? No idea. But I've learned over the years that if I have a real desire to buy something research like that makes no sense to me, to just buy it. Because, one; it won't be there later when you need it.

Packrat much?
Her house must be full of clutter....


Two, because I usually need that book, or picture at the oddest times, but when the need hits it's the difference between looking something up and making my page count for the day, or having to run out to the book store, library, etc . . . Running out for a quick research trip is never quick. The page count is usually screwed for the day.


The thing you're writing your blog in is called "the Internet"
And while we know that the internet is good for porn is not always the best place to do research, you still can get many many shiny color pictures of tigers there, without having to leave the house - something you don't like doing anyway.

Uhh...but Christine is a weretiger - she first turned up in Lunatic Cafe, as a lawyerly type alpha chick and I think she had a footnote in NiC.

So...they're...already in the series. *headdesk*

For the umpteenth time, I banish her from science geekdom. FOR EVAH!

I hope I didn't hurt my head too much with that desking, I need brain cells to make POTC2 icons.

OH! And it's "Tyger Tyger / burning bright" -- considering that's the only William Blake poem I have ever read (excluding excerpts from Red Dragon) I can remember that much.

And Padma's animal to call from his triumvirate was a tiger too... though I can't remember the blokes name... just that it was kinda bad Rudyard Kipling punnage what with Indian Matahari vampire, the British Emperial General human servant... AND the British weretiger lapkitten.

Irksome.

Gideon! And...Thomas. Sir Thomas something something, but from now on I'm going to refer to him as Sergent Pepper. Just on principle.

Carswell! Thomas Carswell.

Sergeant Pepper sounds way better.

Heh heh. He was Sergeant Pepper, I can almost see LKH putting him in the costume.

So can I, but it probably won't happen as Sergeant Pepper was pre-80s iconography.

That, and I pray she doesn't get it into her head to use walruses, or a koo-koo-ka-choo. @.@
