My lucky numbers prevail.

I love stuff like this. I don't know why, but it makes me giggle. Tip: it helps to read it out loud.

Do you sugru? I do!

My phones on sugru. Or sugru on my phones.
My introduction to sugru was a dozen packets of various colors, called the
SMART HACKS SUPER PACK

This stuff was sent to me for free because of my contributions to instructables.com
You should check out both, if you haven't already.

These are just few of the nifty hacks I've used sugru, for.
I made custom anti-shock skins for my iPhone and my Samsung Captivate

The stuff is pretty awesome. It feels like play dough but dries like rubber.


My friend Debi asked me to make one for her Captivate.

She is a writer and asked me to do a tome and quill thing.
I'm no sculptor, but I did my best. Hey, at least she didn't insist on a dragon! She would have ended up with something like TROGDOR!

I also modified my laptop riser stand to more securely hold my laptop in place.
Before?
Before it would start to slide off if it got jiggled or jostled even a little bit.
The stand was clearly not intended to support this 17.3" monster.

Now?
Thanks to a single packet of sugru it is ideal!
Now I think it will stay put, even through a major earthquake.
Too bad I can't confidently say the same for my entire state. :(

Do You VooDoo?


Rupa do.


This is a poppet I made, one in a series I named "Broken-hearted Babies".




It is impotant to note that they Jane horrible little rat- tails that change their expression from one of sorrow to one of anguish when pulled. Yes, versatility was my goal, ang I feel rather good about the results.

He REALLY not a baby no more!

Dominic went to New York to visit our family and so I didn't see him for almost two weeks. He has grown and changed a lot in that seemingly short time!
