• Another embroidery genius at work – Kate O’Connor knocks my socks off.

• I have listened to this song about 15 times a day since I discovered it on Gnarlitude. It haunts me. I love new music and I love that blog and I think I now may love The Kills. (This one too.)
• Thanks for the link Bobby! True love can last a lifetime! :) I already knew this was possible but whatevs.
• I love love love this stainless steel necklace by Anna Corpron of Brevity. Damn you lasers!

• A friend of mine has been as equally enamored as I am with old items spray painted in a single color and made brand new. This foam coated furniture  by Sixinch, designed by Pieter Jamart, is for you Marisa! Apparently the finish is incredibly soft yet durable and the pieces can be used outside as well. (via Freshome)

• This handy guide to converting to the metric system is pretty cute, from one of my favorite geeky webcomics, xkcd.com.
• I really like this diy project from Kingdom of Style to make a one shoulder top out of a wide neck tee you already have laying around… do I have any wide neck tees already laying around? hmmm…
• Thank effin god the holiday season is over!
• A sweet list of 46 awesome freeware applications to geek out with, from unplggd.
• This painting by Eric Fortune called “A Want to Believe” is something I could stare at for hours. (click to enlarge)

• Other than a tragic case of insomnia, I can’t think of too many things to put on my negative list this time around. It just doesn’t work to take my meds at 3am and that’s when I seem to be crawling into bed and staying awake until 5 and 6am. Holler at a bitch on Twitter if you’re up! That’s usually my blogging time.
• There’s been a rash of aggressive LOL cats lately, so many that I actually took note. What does all this feline violence mean? Should we be scared?    1 . 2 . 3 . 4
• Walking away from my computer for a day and having almost 1000 blog posts build up in my Google reader is the suck. Seriously? I don’t have time for this and gave quite a few subscriptions the axe today.
• Is this good or bad? I laughed my ass off so hard just looking at this doll’s face, I had to wipe tears from my eyes. (Thank you Craftastrophe, you made my craptastic day!)
