Criminal Minds

( Oh yeah, I meant to say )

Marimekko, o Marimekko

Looking around the kitchen today, I'm kind of sad that yesterday I stopped Wax from buying this retro white-and-silver kettle (it matches our toaster). It'd be pretty rad with my new white and and silver Unikko tea tin.

Also, my computer's still dead

The sweet new graphics card didn't work, although thankfully remote-login is enabled. Appeals to Brother Linux will be tried next and if that doesn't work, a fresh install of the OS.

Succumbing to temptation

I just picked up Clueless, Labyrinth, Bend It Like Beckham, and Stardust all put together for 32 bucks! I couldn't stop when I saw Stardust in the get-it-for-8-bucks-once-you-spend-18 pile, and srsly - valley girls, David Bowie's traumatising trousers WITH MUPPETS, sweet soccer-playing lesbian Keira Knightley, and Neil Gaiman. Wax is going to frown at me, and maybe mock me, and maybe make pointed remarks, because yesterday I almost didn't let her buy a casserole dish that we really, really needed because I said we were spending too much money. I didn't even go to CDON to buy anything, I went to see if I could find sheet music for Finnish folk tunes (I couldn't, and also I don't know what a folk tune is called in Finnish: feel free to enlighten me, Finnish dudes. I found Femtio Svenska Folkvisor at Adlibris and Akateeminen, however. But I didn't buy them - I was strong. Stronger than I was yesterday when I bought Georgette Heyer's Regency World, and stronger than I was ten minutes later when I bought all the above-mentioned movies).

you can ignore this entry. it's pollspam.
