Random Thursday (ˈrandəm ˈTHərzdā): the day on which Sarah plunks down all the odd bits and pieces she’s been sent by friends or has otherwise stumbled upon this week in an effort to avoid writing a real post, the assembly of which usually ends up taking twice as much time as sitting down and creating actual content.
Once again, we were reminded that the Calendar Spring is not Weather Spring, as the first robin was encased in ice during Monday’s snow infestation.
But there is still squee to be found, if you look. Or your friends do and send it to you.
Thanks, guys.

Now giving free hugs!
(Thanks, liligriff!)
ooooooooooooOOOOOoooooooooooo
SQUEE.
That is all.
My husband sent me this, presumably because he thought the high pitch of my reaction would knock something loose in my sinuses.
Thanks, honey.
ooooooooooooOOOOOoooooooooooo
Watch This
And then watch it again and mark the time
when you said, “Wait. Whoa.”
and report it in the comments, please.
Mine was about 18 seconds in.
And then 46.
And at 1:03.
And 1:56.
I love this so, so much.
ooooooooooooOOOOOoooooooooooo
Octovengers
Sunny called them Squidvengers, which is even better.
Me: I wonder how easy these are to assemble?
Kev: Well, they are filled with glorious polyfiber.
(Thanks, Watson! You’re right, these are two of my favorite thiiiiiings!)
ooooooooooooOOOOOoooooooooooo
“There’s No Way to Outsquee Baby Hedgies.”
Your argument is invalid.
ooooooooooooOOOOOoooooooooooo
Literal Time Suck
Jane introduced me to a series of trailers on YouTube which hilariously describe every single thing that’s going on in them–including the production symbols—not only with subtitles, but a sort of Gregorian Chant that isn’t half bad.
She started me on one for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, which I loved
(“Colonial Running Shoe Commercial . . . “),
even though I had no prior knowledge of the game, but I decided to show one for a movie that I’ve actually seen. Twice.
Trust me and stop at 1:50—the video are good, but the junk at the end is annoying for anyone not of a certain demographic.
The Hobbit is good, too. Or Harry Potter.
Or, you know, all of them . . .
Nope. Soccer is still boring.
You . . . but it’s . . . how can you . . . That wasn’t the . . .
Turn in your Nerd Card, Michael. I’m putting you on probation.
Baby hedgehogs! Soccer is not that interesting for us mere mortals.
Yes.
And gah. Just . . . really? I bet if it was the Piano Guys playing it with cellos, you’d like it. Hmmph.
Squidvengers assemble! 😀
Captain Amerisquid!
Iron Squid!
Um . . . Octopodasgardians?
Loki, Cephalopod of Mischief, Master of Camouflage, Lacking in Spine.
Whomsoever can wield the Electric Eel . . .
No, never mind. You win, Caitlin! 😀
Ooh, what do I win? Calamari? o.O
Bragging rights. 😀
Hey!
I just found a few more people interested in joining our cabin. Looks like I can’t send invites, so can you send one to ClarissaChoo and one to wanphing?
Thanks!
(also sent to your Nanomail)
Also, OMG THOSE TINY HEDGEHOG/PORCUPINE THINGIES!
I’m on it!
And I know, right? Those tiny guys are ginormous squee generators!
Here’s another cabin-mate: Wurzelkind08. Let me know if there’s a way I can invite so I don’t have to bug you. 🙂
Done–and I don’t know how to make it so you can invite people, too. I don’t mind, though! 🙂
Thanks! Ok, I’ll send them your way if there are any more.
And one more camper: Carfiniel
We are going to have the best cabin ever!
‘Course we will . . . but Carfinie isn’t on the list of campers.
Is that the right spelling?
There should be an “L” at the end of her name- Carfiniel. I see her there.
Whoops! Okay, got her! 🙂
Okay, one more cabin invite please. Username: Chiquandra
At this rate, we might fill the place up!
WIll do.
Hey, if you haven’t already mentioned my name to these people, could you? They might wonder why this strange person is inviting them! 😀
Oh yea, I’ve told them all to expect a message from Sarah W. “Hey little girl, wanna come into my cabin? 😉 We have a cute barista . . .”
Snerk. 🙂
