Hi I'm Bubs, welcome to my home on the web!

Spotted Octopus Jewelry

O Google, what would I do without thee?

Cherry Octopi

I would never have found this adorable octopus necklace + earrings set! Be sure to check out the rest of the cute jewelry creations at the Spotted Octopus Shop.

On a side note, does anyone have the font VAG Rounded Light/Thin?? I wouldn’t be stealing it, I promise! I have it back in my home town on my old computer, but I need it for a project :)

New Category: Octopi

Yesterday, I found Squid.Us. Today, I’m seriously thinking of starting an octopus blog. If squid can get love, then so can octopi. In the meantime, I created an Octopi category. My first featured friend is Dresden the Eight-Legged Transvestite:

Eight-Legged Transvestite

This is the second cute crocheted creature that I have blogged about. I think I may have to learn to crochet just so that I can create some cephalopods of my own.

Bubba the Deer

My friend, Lovie, sent me these pictures forever ago, but I’m just now getting around to posting them :sweatdrop:

It’s her pet deer, Bubba! :nod: She rescued him and now, he lives at her house. Isn’t he the cutest thing ever??

Best Friends Forever

This is the sweetest story ever!!

Best Friends Forever

Hamster named Gohan, right, and snake Aochan live togther in a cardboard box at Mutsugoro Okoku zoo, outskirts of Tokyo, in this January 14, 2006 photo. Gohan and Aochan make strange bedfellows: one’s a 9 centimeter dwarf hamster; the other is a 120 centimeter-long (yard-long) ratsnake. Zookeepers at Tokyo’s Mutsugoro Okoku zoo presented the hamster — whose name means ‘meal’ in Japanese — to Aochan as a tasty morsel in October, after the snake refused to eat frozen mice. But instead of indulging, Aochan decided to make friends with the furry rodent, according to keeper Kazuya Yamamoto. The pair have shared a cage since. (AP Photo/Mutsugoro Okoku Zoo, Kyota Nomura)

I HEART Domo-kun

He arrived today!

RAAAARRR!!!
Straight from Japan… my very own Domo-kun! He even has Japanese labels. Isn’t he cute?? I love his flat feet… he can stand up just like the videos. I :heart: him! Will bought him for me from JList.Com and he’s a very high-quality plush. He’s the exact plush featured in the infamous picture :) I also got a cute pen, but I’ll save that for next paragraph…

I’ve never been so mad at Pixie. She destroyed my brand-new Domo-kun pen!!! :grumpy: I was so upset. I should’ve known better than to leave it on the table. Pixie loves to steal things off the dining room table. She still received quite a scolding! Thank goodness it’s still in stock… I’ll be able to get another.

Will’s back from Washington D.C. :spin: I’ve been so lonely without him!

Domo Domo Domo

You know what would be really cool? If I could go to bed at a decent hour instead of staying up all night and sleeping until 3pm the following day O_o It’s 5:15am and needless to say, I haven’t slept tonight. What is wrong with me?!

Any of you American readers have big Independence Day plans? I sure don’t! I’m in Tuscaloosa all by myself :cry: I should’ve gone home so that I could watch fireworks with my deddy and mommy but NOOOO, I had to sleep all day yesterday. My friend Jennifer, who shares my passion for consuming mass quantities of sushi and shrimp scampi, said that she’d be back in town today. Maybe she’ll go grab a bite to eat with me ;)

RaWwRR! I’ve been giving William a non-stop guilt trip for leaving me all by myself while he ran off to Washington D.C. for the first month of summer break. I conned him into buying me some Domo-kun toys - a pen and plush. I can’t wait until they arrive! I know I’m jumping on the bandwagon 3 years late, but I’m totally obsessed with Domo-kun! I recently watched the video clips - he’s soooo cute. Speaking of the clips, does anyone know where I can find translations/subs?

I’m going to go grab some breakfast (two Chic-Fil-A chicken biscuits to be exact! :9) Nevermind, Chic-Fil-A was closed for the holiday :grr:
