Crumpets Nail Tarts: Geeks

This week's theme was actually pretty easy for me to figure a design for, because there are two things I geek-out about: Doctor Who, and The Little Mermaid (anything mermaid, really :D )

I knew exactly what I wanted to do to combine the two, and it's based off this amazing t-shirt I *really* need to buy someday from Teefury:

Before I show you my nails, I need to tell you - they're nubs :(  Earlier in the week, my cat decided to wake me up 40 minutes before my alarm by meowling at the bedroom door, because she wanted out.  My husband was already up with the kids, so I rolled my 7 month pregnant butt out of bed to let her out.  What does she do?  She darts into the bathroom as soon as I stand up - so I chase her to the bathroom, where she decides to then dart through my legs, tripping me and causing me to fall, landing in such a way that my pointer finger completely broke off down to the skin.  

Damn cat.

So I had to cut them all down.  And I had to figure out this design around short nails.  I didn't let myself get angry though.  I adopted a very passive attitude towards the whole ordeal after realizing plenty of women wear nubs fantastically, and I could very well be one of them.

So, without further ado, here are my nails:

Yes, that *is* the ninth Doctor's sonic ;)

I wish the hand peeking out from the Tardis had shown up better from a front-looking stance.  The Tardis ended up a bit bigger on my nail than I anticipated, but even without fully seeing it, the image still makes sense :)  I'm pretty happy with how it turned out - only took me about 2 hours to complete (I was half distracted binge-watching Bones on Netflix).  

I hope you enjoy the design!!  Be sure to check out the other absolutely fantastic Geek-themed designs through the inlinkz below!!

Oh, and here's one more Geek meme for you, because it made me LOL pretty hard :D
