Mouse Trekking

Let's start with life, actually. I went out and bought myself a lawn chair for my balcony. The sun is out almost every day here now, and it's gorgeous and warm and breezy and I have new books to read. This just SCREAMS of laying out in the sun. I shall post pics once the damn thing is put together. Which may take a while - I bought a kitchen organizer a week and a half ago and its corpse is still scattered around the kitchen, leaking screws and bits of metal post.

Another Open Class this Saturday in Qingpu. There are some teachers from another district coming to watch and take notes, but hey, no pressure. A fleet of teachers from Hangzhou are also coming next Wednesday to watch my five, who had better behave or I'll behead all of them with my textbook.

just_jesse  came over for dinner last night. It was fantabulous. I made chicken wings with mom's special sauce (yummy!) and frenchfries. We also had cucumbers and celery and real Bleu Cheese dressing (Jo has a new City Supermarket near her home, damn the woman. I still need to go downtown). She also helped me bake mountains of cookies. Why were there mountains of cookies in need of baking?

Because the grade 5's made cookies yesterday. They had a recipe they wrote down, mixed all the stuff together, rolled it out, used the cookie cutters, and I enlisted office people's help to carry trays of cookies home where we spent the next two hours baking cookies, two trays at a time, for 7 minute intervals. And I still have a huge bowl of dough left. >.<;;;;;;

I have a new desktop picture. It's pretty. Teaser:




Shiny knees. *petspetspets*

( Smexy Deadpool.  )

Comic!Wade is pretty. So is Movie!Wade:




Here, have some MOAR pretty Movie!Wade:

...Must take cold shower. Back later.

'Cause the world just needs more Deadpool.




He is so depraved. And a voyeur. ^___^

( Spying Deadpool, killing Deadpool, and yes - even CROSS DRESSING Deadpool.  )

I hope you enjoyed that as much as I did. :D

I went digging through my box of reading materals (everything from magazines, newspapers I've kept for some reason, books, and comic books) to see just what it was I had lurking there. Lo and behold, I had another Deadpool issue. Issue 31 to be exact.

Not scanning the whole thing, but I did choose 7  pages that had some good Deadpool art/banter. The two women he's with - Ilaney (German, saved her life back in the 'teens period of the series and made her his personal pilot), and Mercedes - apparently his 'wife - are pretty cool. I like the ch-chkkk part. :D

This issue was interesting because it was the end of the major story arc of the series up to that point, and even looks like it ends on a happy note. Of course, with Wade's luck, we all know that can't happen, and sure enough the last page - which I didn't scan because no one would understand the significance of the surprise show-up is unless you've read the book to that point - marks the beginning of yet another downward spiral for our favorite merc-with-a-mouth. However, Wade always eventually lands on his feet, and he DOES get over everything. Eventually. Cracking quips all the way. :D I love this man.

Welcome to Landau, Luckman, and Lake - an interstellar banking and company holdings facility that can buy and sell your universe before lunchtime:



They're prisoners for the moment, even though DP was working for them. Apparently he did his job a little too well. Please take note of the company policy bulletin board on the wall. :D

( 7 piccies under the cut plus added bonus of bulemic!Deadpool )

In about 6 weeks, I'll be back in Canada and the first thing I'mma do is dig out all my old back issues. Deadpool needs more love.

It has come to my attention that some people simply don't understand why I am so giddy over the prospect of a Deadpool movie. I mean, the beginning of the movie, with pretty blonde Wade makes for good, sound reasoning, but the creepy-looking killer at the end of the flick? Not so much.

See, some people don't know just how awesome Wade continues to be once he recovers from the Weapon X/Dept. K experiements (though in comics-canon, he never had his mouth sewed shut). Wade Wilson, winner of the dead pool (the only person to survive Dept.K alive, healthy, STRONG and with his mind more or less intact), the legendary merc-with-a-mouth who can beat Wolverine in a fight on his best day, the sarcastic killer who later redeems himself as a true hero (after a lifetime of murder and mayhem), the hilarious man with the face of a monster but able to hide with an image inducer - I give you Deadpool.






Scanned in all its glory, the first run of Deadpool in his own solo mag, read it and laugh, and understand. :D

Note: I am posting issue one and ONLY issue 1 in its entirety to entice more people into loving this character and ultimately feling the need to support him by buying books with him in them, as well as encouraging them to go and see Deadpool the movie.
