a post about stuff

mymetalphantomI've done a lot of waiting around today, which always drives me crazy.
If bored, make a LiveJournal post. I have nothing to declare but my geekery. This is a small sample of nerdy stuff in my nerdy life.
0.05% of the books I own. These are either books I’m reading now, or have just finished reading (you can tell by the bookmarks, can’t you?)...or in the case of my dissertation books, just ones that I can’t be arsed to put away properly.
When you have cookies you need to keep them in a geek cookie jar...or three.
CD players? iPods? iTunes? Whatever do you mean? Also, re: Che Guevara vinyl sticker...I know, horrible man; killed people. It's there to remind me of my hopeful, innocently Marxist past. Happy, less cynical days. Sentimental value.
My darling Henry! One day I shall be able to afford a better guitar, and I will feel like I’m breaking up with Henry. That day will be a sad one, I fear.
My fridge door. Actually it’s my freezer door, but still. This changes from time to time, whenever the mood strikes me. I drew the TARDIS picture. You can tell, because perspective is not a strong suit of mine. Mind you, I did draw it completely from memory, so I can sort of be forgiven. That and I can’t draw.
The little kid in some of the pictures is me; obviously the other people in them are my parents.
The rest is fandom related stuff and anything that I found to be witty.
Conrad Veidt! I made these with this thing here . You can’t say that I don’t put a lot of effort into my geekery.
The Union Flag looks like a rather 'BNP' (British National Party) kind of decoration, but I don't see why they should have a monopoly on it.
My calendar. I have a geek calendar every year. If you have sharp eyes though, you’ll notice that this one is not this year’s calendar. I forgot to buy one and then couldn’t find one I liked, so I recycled an old one that I found in a drawer. It’s okay, as long as I don’t want to know what the correct date is...erm...
Geek poster. No points for correctly guessing why I chose this poster, specifically. Wow, I’ve had that poster for bloody ages.
Where the magic happens. My untidy workspace. Complete with geek pictures and a semi-cool Lennon poster. I dunno, Lennon’s cool, right?
EDIT:
I can't believe I forgot about my Avengers poster! How silly of me.
Any suggestions for how I can make my house geekier than it already is (once I get some money) are welcomed! XD
That successfully killed an hour!

Date: 2010-07-29 06:27 pm (UTC)OMG GEEK COOKIE JARS. ♥ I just have a Pink Panther one. ;_; Do want a Dalek!
If I walked into anyone's house and saw McCoy on their fridge/freezer, I would move in with them. Against their wishes. Totally. And I remember that map of the world according to America! Priceless.
Love the TARDIS picture, too! Draw more~ It's what I'm trying to do, but I get sidetracked so easily.
Sighhh, now I have to post pictures of my geeky space. You probably won't be surprised by whats on my walls.

LOL! I would like to say that that is the extent of my McCoy pictures...but it's really not. I have many more dotted around the house.

I think one of the things I like about it is that, apparently, I'm one of the pussies. XD
And no, I really shouldn't draw. In fact, the less I draw, the less awful shit there is in the world. It's really my duty to limit my drawings to random doodles during my lunch breaks.
now I have to post pictures of my geeky space
Yes! I wanna see your geekery!

Date: 2010-07-30 03:51 pm (UTC)I really need to get some Avengers DVDs. They've been very slow in bringing them out over here (even though they were made here, grrr). When I get some money I'm gonna get right on that.
I love Steed too, A LOT ;)

Date: 2010-08-01 03:02 pm (UTC)Ha! My house reveals that I dedicate entirely too much time to the unomportant things in life! XD
I think I mentioned in a previous post that I secretly love checking out people's bookshelves and DVD collections. I'm so nosey.
I love my cookie jars, and as for the Connie Veidt pictures well...how could he not look pretty?
