pumpkiny-dorkness

So, I'm a huge dork. I carved my pumpkin like a greek vase.

First one to guess what it is gets the prize of knowing that you're just as big of a dork as I am.

So you know, I'm not artistic enough to do that by myself. I printed out the picture of the vase I wanted to use, duct taped it to the pumpkin and then used a knife to cut small lines around the outline of the figured. Of course the vase is way more complicated than I could get on the pumpkin and some pieces fell out that should have stayed, but overall I think I did a good job.

my guess is that it's Athena talking to Odysseus, giving him pointers on how to be a sexy monkey. or barring that, on planning to get home.

okay, i know one of them is ajax and that theyre playing checkers, becaus achilles is being a baby and crying in his tent. i thought the other one was odysseus, but you say its not. maybe its diomedes? or hm, nestor.

*feels like a bad classics major*

anyway, thats super awesome. :D
