Here is another neat little sugru project.

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!

...and she doesn't (the) afraid of anything. Ever.

What?! I thought it was cute. And I always did like the shoe piece, as a tiny sculpture or a charm for a bracelet (yes, I made a charm bracelet out of all the pieces I could get my hands on once).

As for the game? I preferred to play the iron. I also kinda liked the wheel burrow. Also the top hat and thimble were cute. I had to drill holes in those for the bracelet. Pain in the ass.

I would sometimes play the car, but that was only when I was in a mean mood and wanted to leave my brother with no alternative but to play the dog.

You Are the Shoe. Great for getting just about anywhere. Particularly good for kicking the dog. You are adventurous and free spirited. You are confident that you can do almost anything, and you are never the afraid. You are a hard worker and quite stubborn. You are willing to put in long hours to achieve your goal. You never give up, even when things get difficult. You are very tough. You're the type of person who wants to conquer the whole world, and you know it begins one step at a time.

What Monopoly Piece Are You?

All the way and back again!

So yeah, I'm playing one of my word games today, and this came up! A reference to the double rainbow guy! I was so amused I forgot I was supposed to ne playing and just started giggling!







iPhone post.

It's like Fisher-Price stuff, for people!

Target has these crazy, fat plastic carts now, that just seem like oversized toddler toys--and baskets to match!

Spiffy, huh? The employees who have to go wrangle them back inside hate them, by the way.

Symmetry

It's the way things have to be.

These symmetry games are obviously played for combined points if points mean anything to you--they don't to me, I play word games for the letters, not the numbers.

I thought of playing a symmetrical game after we had already begun, so it was doomed from the start. But a good warm-up. I had this grand plan to swoop in and spoil the board with DIVA at the end, but then I used mt D for another move and so sadly it had to be VICAR. Not nearly as dramatic.

Our second game went well until the last couple of moves--we had a plan for SOW under QUAVER to match LAS under LENGTH but I forgot and put the H for OH and AH under FARM... and planned to play my M in the same spot opposite, creating OM and OD under WHOA... but the S was in place and so I spoiled the game. :(

Our third symmetry game went quite well, don't you think?

Sonic is borrring.

Apparently, because he was loud and animated a minute before he started playing Sonic on youtubes.
