Get inspired, but do not copy

From time to time I have a website to design. One of my current projects pro publico bono (which means more less that doing this for free) is a website for a small parish. It's located in the country, so I can't do anything fancy like corporate web 2.0 blogs. This website has to have a specific style. And here is also where my adventure begins.

Un blob CSS (and some summer rant)

Smashing Magazine (my 2nd favourite lecture these days; I have nothing to do at work most of the time) released an article about what wonders you can do with CSS3. WONDERS, seriously. I can't wait to use that piece of teh interwebs, but the things is... that I don't think it will be soon.

What I found the cute was this Blob. JS + CSS3 = "Woo! I can play with this for hours." Like a truly disabled mentally grown up who is bored at work. But the things is... I use Firefox. And here is where the problems begins.

The day I wore a dress

This may look silly as a subject to write, but this is seriously epic for me. Out of a whim I decided to wear a dress today. Not the best for me, but with some accessories this looks good.

And as most of you already assume I don't wear this piece of wardrobe too often. Last time my friends had the chance to see me in this particular dress was in 2008 (I remember because it was The Dark Knight's première) and even then I had it over some sort of pants.

A-n-y-w-a-y... Few funny things which made my day because of my choice of attire today:

Sexy girls, anyone?

For the last 2h, me and my paszczak (my beloved Jus who doesn't know that there are two Korean teams) are sitting and looking for hot girls. I mean hot, so hot that we would drool and decided that we both are at least bi.

And... nothing. 2h of searching, asking guys for advice and nothing. Apart from finding few really cute girls ♥ and me picking mostly lesbians*, I must say that:

(Almost) family conversations #2

As we all know during office hours in this time of year A.D. 2010 we're watching the World Cup working very hard. In this very moment Argentina is winning with South Korea 2:0. Just after the 2nd goal my friend wrote me a text message.

<jus> Oh, there are gonna be work camps for someone...
<cloudi> Honey, it's not that Korea.
<jus> Fuck ;D There are 2 Korean teams at the World Cup?
<cloudi> Yup. Kind of.
<jus> Damn _^_ Epic fail.

UPDATE: And just before the whistle - Koreans score!

Europe - I love you so very much!

I fall in love with this place more and more with every single day. Each country is weird (some even very much), crazy and charming in its own way.

And I just can't stop smiling when I see this:



Ukraine in 5:05!

And check this out! This girl makes the best comics I've ever seen.

Here comes the rain again

Come to think of it I must say that last week was shitty. Nothing big and bad happened, but lots of small things just decided to make my life miserable. And the snowball effect started.

I'm in the mood. What does "the" mean? That I don't care. I don't care that someone (a friend) is upset with me, I lose willingness to talk to people with whom I really enjoy conversations and I'm detached (in my specific way). This also appears in my musical choices - this week for sure will be under the blessing of Karin Dreijer Andersson. And maybe Bel Canto since I'm discovering their compositions. Though it's too little psychedelic for the moment.

I need holidays, I know that. Part 1 shall be soon, I just need to talk to someone and set the details about my visit there. With no internet for sure. Probably I won't take my cellphone also.

And I think that it actually might be fun.
