I have watched this clip countless times, and every one of those times I have thought about how much Frank Oz must have enjoyed performing this.  I also think about trying to pull off that look, only to remember I am not a puppet or an international sex symbol.

I would look like I'd accidently spilled acid on my clothes, and, after having reached my limit for public nudity by having to use the emergency shower,  was only able to find a clothing store that catered exclusively to little pageant boys.

Doctor Who Franken Collection Swatches and Recipes - Part Two

Classic Who II - Part One is here, and contains a brief explanation.

All swatches are over Gelous, and topped with Sally Hansen Insta-Dri. The first two are two coats, the others are three. The first two photos in each set are in a lightbox, the third is taken under a lamp. Click photos to enlarge. Recipes were mixed in 0.5 fl. oz. bottles.

Doctor Who Franken Collection Swatches and Recipes - Part One

I decided to create a Doctor Who franken collection, and it grew a bit huge. I will be posting pictures and recipes for all of them, but will break it up into sub-collections. There are two main collections, Classic Who and New Who, and each is divided into two sub-collections plus a bonus polish or two. It sounds far more complicated than it is, I promise.

This is Classic Who I, I hope you enjoy it.

All swatches are two coats with Gelous as a base coat and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri as a top coat. The first two pictures in each set were taken in a lightbox, and the last under a lamp. As always with my nail polish posts, click the pictures to enlarge. I used 0.5 fl. oz. bottles.

Happy (Belated) Birthday Jasper

Yesterday, we celebrated Jasper's 2nd Birthday. I can't believe he's been with me for nearly 2 years. In some ways, it feels like we've been together for an eternity, but also like he has grown from a squirmy little kitten, with a short little tail, into a beautiful and energetic cat, with a ton of personality, in no time.

I intended to post this yesterday, but my internet connection went kaput. I couldn't even get Safari to work on my iPhone! So, this is a slightly late tribute to my little orange boy.




Happy birthday, Jasper Gaius!
