do sheep dream of electric socks?

star for christmas tree, originally uploaded by spugmeistress.

not blogged in a while - got a new gamecube memory card off ebay so been catching up with some smash bros. but been busy today :) got some new normal-sized (midi) hama beads for a change, they're huge! made lots of things for keyrings and maybe some christmas tree decorations, but will probably wait til after the craft fair to put them up on etsy.

also in the post this week, my stupendously expensive order from sock dreams ($101/£50 plus £12 customs :s) but it was totally worth it - check out the haul on my flickr. if you hadn't guessed i'm a bit obsessed by socks.

if you haven't seen this marching band on youtube, you need to. they are *awesome*. they make me wish i had kept up with the tenorhorn when i was 8 and somehow been transferred to an american school where this kind of stuff actually happens. along with acapella singing groups and spelling bees. why don't we have this stuff in england?! and for some proper music, check out the awesomely named upcdowncleftcrightcabc+start - nothing to do with chip music i promise, just some pretty sweet post-rock.

off to watch the new episode of pushing daisies now! (it's ace)
