Alt-J – The Indecisive Eejit

I know you have all been wondering where I have been…..you have right!? Well the truth is I haven’t been anywhere, now that’ll be a shock to those of you who regularly read my blog, me having such a fantastic social life and all……not!!

Guacamole_Pepper-Jack_Burger — Image from Silver Diner – not my dinner table….sadly!

Actually that’s a lie, I did go out for tea last week with the friend who sends the texts that make me smile and it was great fun, I ordered a burger that when it arrived I had no idea whether to climb it or eat it. I decided on the latter and it was bloody good! Hopefully I’ll go again, if I am asked that is.

I realised something this week, and it is something of great importance….you lot write too fecking much. The amount of unread posts in my Bloglovin never seems to go below 70, WTF….where do you all get the time. I’ve reached the stage of reading and not liking (by pressing the button that is), but even that is not making a dent in the list. So take a deep breath, relax have a cup of coffee and slow the feck down will ya!

Thank you and welcome to all my new followers, and thank you for sticking around to all the old ones. Even little Miss May has had a few new ones which is why I have finally stopped reblogging her posts. It’s time to see if she can stand on her own two Louis Buttons.

I’ve been loving the new Alt-J album, This is all yours . It’s been on constant repeat on my music player. That said, Steve from Now this is what I would call music, also introduced me to Sia’s new album. I’ve already had some of her music, but the tune ‘Fair Game’ has also become a firm favourite this week. Considering Steve was also the one who introduced me to the song ‘Moving on’ by James which you can listen to on my Music Bubble page, then I would say his site is well worth checking out.

Well that’s about it from me, what’s been happening with you lot?

Well would you look at that! I managed the baby 3, thank you very much to Mr Surf Report himself Rob who had the smarts to give it to me in the simplest language possible meaning that I was eventually able to do it. The fact that it took a few thousand goes is neither here nor there.

Now before we get to the matter at hand, which, as can be quite clearly seen from the banner is the Cartoon Craziness Challenge, I need to tell you people that I am excited. If you’ve followed me for a while you will know that I am a woman who likes her music. This past year when I was doing anything on the computer and wanted background music my go to album of choice was Alt-J An Awesome Wave, and in just 7 days time they are releasing a new album called “This is all yours”. If you have never heard of Alt-J check out the song Hunger on the Pine on Youtube, although if you’re squeamish I wouldn’t watch the video :)

Ok back to the challenge, the last one was ‘Build a Burger’, and it would seem out of the usual crew that I was the only one who didn’t actually build a burger, and it was my fecking idea too, how bad am I. These amazing people however, did rustle up some treats:

Thank you to you all, and if you’re looking at this little post in disgust because I missed your name, feel free to let me know by giving me a boot up the backside!

So what have we in store for your this fortnight. I have had a few ideas submitted, however this one was suggested by at least two people, so the theme for this weeks C³ is ‘Fictional Characters‘. I could explain what I mean, but why would I try when the lovely Pat from Write up the Spine does it much more elegantly:

Since it’s back to school/end of summer yadda yadda …. perhaps a Bookish theme — like you’re favorite fictional character – rewritten or drawn with a twist, perhaps their evil side, or most contrite version, depending on the original?

So if you have ever read a book but disagreed with how the artists impression turned out, you now have a chance to write the wrongs by drawing or doodling your own version.

More rules and information can be found on the Cartoon Craziness Page and you have until the 28th September 2014 to complete this challenge.

On your marks, get set, doodle!!
