WAll-E is the cutest thing ever. Pixar is the only animation studio that could possibly make me want my very own pet cockroach. Adorable. ADORABLE. Also, if I push Cars out of my mind (as I do, no matter how much I love Owen), I'm constantly amazed at how they manage to take rather formulaic romances and make them work so well for me. Did I mention adorable?

The nice thing about watching something so flawlessly animated is that it really gets me all fired up to work on my models. I'll probably start over once again on a human figure and do that a few times over until I can get a base model built from scratch in a half hour. It's a good kick in the butt to haul out my anatomy book again and do some charts.

J won us some tickets to see the Grand Archives play tomorrow night at Slim's. Cue my happy. I'm curious if the set list will be different this time! Also, am curious how their sound is going to be on this leg of the tour. If it wasn't so flipping cold I'd wear the cute new skirt I bought. Alas, walking five miles in a skirt is not going to happen with this weather. The weather from a week ago, sure, but now? Not so much. Bleh. I feel so whiny about weather lately, but I don't do well when it swings between extremes so quickly. Am considering going in early before the show and trying to pick up a new pair of converse. Also a few new shirts since my wardrobe seems to have defaulted back to nothing but black and red. Sometimes, I feel like my chest of drawers is to clothing as Crowley's car is to cassette tapes.

Anyway, 1mr was updated the other day. Alas, the comic remains without a real robot. I recommend overcoming your disappointment by going to see Wall-E. :3
  • omg it was soooooooooooo cute!! ^_^ *squish*
    • :3 I'm still amazed at how well Pixar animates non-human characters. I mean really. Wow!
      • i know right!?! i mean he doesn't even have "eyes" or eyebrows or a mouth- all of which are normally used to convey feelings and emotions. plus OMG cute &heartsl
  • i'm so longing to see Wall-E. the movie theater here closes for the summer - stupid imho, but whatever.
    i'm hoping to catch it when i go to the city.

    and 1mr - that's so flipping funny, but also, very sadly true.
    i think the next time asks if they can read my blog, i'm going to tell them "no. i want you to beat yourself over the head with it."
  • without a real robot, maybe, but still adorable. ♥

    I've made an IJ feed link for it so I can watch it from my flist -- the account is [info]1mr_feed, if you want to pimp it to other readers also. ^^
  • Gwee, am going to see that one today! Last night it was Wanted and Get Smart. Common was in wanted! And zomg, it was good. Get Smart was also hilariously good, for entirely different reasons.

    I love free movies. Free tickets = awesome too. <3
  • I wanna see WALL-E so bad. I see trailers and make really high pitched squeaking noises. ^^;
  • 1mr

    I just realized that, though I follow 1mr on Twitter, (as I've been following you on LJ and IJ for years now) I don't think I tell you how much I enjoy it. So. 1mr, just so you know, might be my favorite comic. On the internet. Which is so big. I know it's just starting, but I've probably read what there is to read four times. At least. ^_^

    There. I love all your stuff, still, but 1mr is the new favorite.

    (I know I'm like the millionth person to prolly tell you they love it. But. -_-;;)
  • I love the comic.

    I'm subscribed so I get to read it through G reader while I'm at work. So far it's fantastic, always makes me smile.
  • I can't wait to see Wall-E! ^____^

    I hope you enjoyed Grand Archives!

    *hugs*
