Takes massive SLURP of that delightful looking cocktail, and looks all bashful rocking from one foot to the other, blushing unattractively...
Gosh I'm so flattered, and touched and, oh hell I feel a Gwyneth moment of shame coming up.
So I will just say thank you and, shoud I ever uncrush on Michael Palin, I will immediately transfer all the Crush Love to you x
You're quite right, it was enjoying penning the tales to go with the flickr pix which led to blogging where I can unlease my inner witterer without limit.
Loving all you bloggy gals to making the New Gal feel so welcome!!
OMG, this girl is fantastic! Well, there's another day shot as I sit in front of the computer, delving into the life of some fascinating new blog friend, thanks to your directive.
Nice one, I've been loving Spud too! And I didn't even know about the honeymoon in Sa - brilliant idea, naturally. Having spent far too much time on her blog 'of late' I'll now have to go lurking all over Flickr too ... be warned MrsPotatoHead (may we call you that?): we is out there, loving your work. :)
she´s hysterical- thanks for the heads up. luv your new chucks... :)

[Image]spudballoo, this lovely blue beverage is for you!
i was reminded about my blog crush thing this week as i laughed maniacally to myself in my hotel room at the inaptly-named grand hotel in oslo. i laughed maniacally because i was reading chez spud, a rather new but nonetheless great blog written by a woman who isn't afraid to order up costumes and wear them for the purpose of her posts.
[Image]
i actually "met" her first on flickr, where i think she was blogging before she started her blog (at least as near as i can tell--i didn't actually interview her for this post, so i'm mostly making this shit up).
it may sound a little strange to say she was blogging on flickr, but i say that because of things like this: toys i hate number 1: playmobil
london calling...not anymore it ain'ttreasure 9: letter from my grandmother
[Image]she's got a magic wand!
she's also part of the gang who is excessively twittering of late. (note to self: find a new way to say "of late," since you are totally overusing it.)
a few other reasons to love spudballoo....she takes fantastic pictures. she's nikon. she's got a lensbaby. she looked absolutely gorgeous at her wedding. she apparently went to south africa on her honeymoon (and we know how much i love south africa). oh, and she's got a mac too. (i learned all of this from flickr.)
i hope she really does take the vomit ferry and comes to visit me soon. but in the meantime, go read her whole blog and then when it's over (because it's over too fast) you can lurk for hours on her flickr photostream.
p.s. the bottom two pictures of spudballoo are hers, which i blatantly stole from her blog and didn't even ask if i could, i'm not stalking her and snapping her picture while she sleeps and/or dresses up as a roman warrior woman in her backyard. i promise.
