Cute amigurumi

soc_puppetIt's time for more amigurumi! Yaaaay \o/
These are the cute ones. My NSFW one (if anyone remembers Chinko, this is is het partner), who I have finally photographed, will be reserved for my next post.
First, the slightly less cute one:
This is, uh. Snakey. For now. He's potentially for one of my bus students, whose favorite color is green and whose favorite animal is the snake. He's also based loosely off that tree snake that happens to be green. I think it's called a green tree snake? IDK. Whatever.
And now, the tooth-rottingly cute one:
This is. Ducky. For lack of a better name. We'll see what his new owner decides. Long story short, I have a co-worker who collects duckling themed things! And also one who collects turtle themed things, but I made a turtle for her on Friday (in the most stressful way possible, I might add), so I said I'd make a duck over the weekend.
I also made a second lion, which I will be selling to a third co-worker for $10 :Db Iiiiii don't think I will be telling him the turtle and the duck were made for more-or-less free? The turtle's new owner said she'd give me some yarn she has laying around upon receipt, but. There was no real intention to charge, so.
In other news! Point Three of this post may have finally sold me on DreamWidth. Mostly because my main issue with any given journal site is how I never seem to follow my friends/watching/reading/whatever list on those alternate journals :| The only thing that could possibly sell me more is if they fixed that one thing where you have to post multiple times to crosspost* anywhere. Having said that, I have done no actual checking out of anything at the home site, so they may indeed have fixed this already.
* Ideally, in my mind, you'd be able to just ctrl + click the places you'd like the post to show up, as with things like tags and memories, and then all of them lead to the same damn page (though I suppose the problem there would be the question of which page it would lead to, especially if you're not also posting to your own journal - maybe it would be a post on your journal that would show up as private on your journal? IDK). Clever coding might also be able to tweak things so the entry will show up only once on friends lists, rather than the multiple times crossposting on LJ will get you (provided you have these places friended).
I have no idea yet whether I'll be trying to whore for an invite, or whether I'll just be waiting until the service is open to people buying accounts.
Oh, and someone please remind me to get off my lazy ass and make a post to the AI forums and reply to emails. I need a kick in the pants :/
Edit: Dear Self,
If you're going to be using your Gmail account for important things, like, oh, AI FORUM STUFF, please to remember to check it more than once a month.
Yours,
Brain.
