So I'm going to have a go at another art challenge.

I'm going to go with the stained glass idea & see how it goes.

I haven't found any prompt list I think I could follow so, yet again, I made up my own one:

01: angel 02: snowman 03: holly 04: mistletoe 05: candle

06: sleigh 07: tree 08: star 09: snowflake 10: stocking

11: candy cane 12: present 13: ornament 14: wreath 15: bow

16: deer 17: gingerbread man 18: sugarplum fairy 19: bells 20: mittens

21: robin 22: toy 23: ice skate 24: Santa 25: house with snow

Every year I’ve seen inktober prompts & every year I think to myself maybe I’ll do it some year but never get around to it.

With all the plagiarism controversy surrounding inktober now I’ve seen a bunch of other prompt lists pop up for October.

So, with the fact I managed to get that music video project done finally, I decided it mightn’t be too hard to make a really simple gif a day.

So I have made my own list and made giftober:

1. witch           2. skull           3. book        4. cat                5. candle
6. caldron       7. spider         8. bat            9. fangs           10. ghost
11. wolf           13. runes      14. knife       15. axe           16. blood
17. death        18. time         19. sweets   20. coffin        21. eyes
22. doll            23. potion      24. moon     25. bird           26. graveyard
27. tree           28. fairy           29. shadow 30. pentagram           31. pumpkin

I don’t know if I’ll get them all done. And I might end up cheating a bit.
I guess we’ll see.

*edit: I just realised I mis-counted this. Opps, fixed now
(taking out 'zombie' because that feel hard to draw)

So there's currently 7 different things that Eevee can evolve into in Pokemon Go.
I've read up how to evolve them into what I need by changing their names but I've decided I'm not go to evolve any until I get 175 candy so that by them I should have some high level Eevee.

For my own reference:

Rename to Linnea = leaf-type Leafeon
Rename to Rea = ice-type Glaceon
Rename to Sakura = psychic-type Espeon
Rename to Tamao = dark-type Umbreon
Rename to Rainer = water-type Vaporeon
Rename to Sparky = lightning-type Jolteon
Rename to Pyro = fire-type Flareon

There's also another Pokemon that can evolve randomly.
Wurmple. It's a bug type thing I never herd of.
I looked it up & it's got 2 different paths but unfortunately no one knows any tricks yet, unlike Eevee.

No one knows how it decides what it is going to evolve into to but one place I looked at said it was based on a 'personality state' that can't be seen by the user.
On the off change that this meant that it's based on how much you use/own/interact with the Pokemon I set one as my buddy to rack up enough candy to evolve 2 of them. (12 * 2 = 24)
Then as soon as I caught a new one I evolved them both.
It seemed to work.
The one I had set as my buddy became a Silcoon & the new one became a Cascoon.

Of course that doesn't actually prove anything, I may have just got lucky.

I will say that since they earn 1 candy per km it's a great way of doing the candy gathering field research missions.

This is how to fix pretty much anything.

1. Turn it off. Plug it out. Take out the batteries. Take out all the cables and put them all back in again.
2. Read the instructions.

This will fix 90% of all problems

3. Fix whatever is broken/fallen off with tape, glue, thread, wire, solder or any combination of all five depending on what's appropriate.
4. Open it up and clean out the inside, fixing or replacing anything that appears obviously broken or lose.
5. Google the problem.

For the remaining 5% of the problems

6. Find/pay some to fix it.
7. Buy a new whatever-it-was.

Right.

Note to self, Adobe Premiere Pro takes:

stop forgetting and messing things up.

So, the props we need for this play are:

Scroll/script X 6
Flower (love-in-idleness)
An almanac
A lantern
A (stuffed) dog
Two swords (maybe)
A note
A piece of paper with the prologue

I also possibly need a thorn-bush and a mantle (cloth) but I think the costume people are handling that.

Replacing the retractable dagger would be handy too, as it’s looking a bit ragged, but it’s not vital.

The flower, someone else said they have, the swords are in storage, there might be a lantern there too but if not I can get one from a pound shop, the dog I’ll get from my sister and almanac just has to be an nondescript book which I defiantly have.

The rest are just pieces of paper I may age a bit with tea.

I’ll get the papers done tomorrow and then I should be set for props.

There’s St. Genesius who’s the saint of theatre. He’s also the saint of actors along with St. Vitus. The saint of actresses is apparently Pelagia the Penitent.

There’s Clare of Assisi who’s saint of television.

Saint Veronica’s the saint of photographers and I think that extends to filmmakers.

Of course there’s always St, Michael, the patron saint of anything we can’t think of.

(oh, and St. Isidore is the saint of the internet.)

99 things you should have seen on the Internet

I came across a meme and one of the questions was ‘what do you have in your pockets?’

( ANS: a lot )

Since I wear a cap a lot I tend to get asked why.

( I have a list: )

I was watching TGWTG top 11 Coolest Clichés and it reminded me of my list of hero shots. Every action movie has at lest one and I always intended to write them down one day but I never got around to it.

( So, in no particular order, my list of hero shots )

I’ll probably come back and update this if I think of any thing else
