I'm doing a large easel piece of work at the moment. I decided to do soemthing I had not done before and see how it works out. I'm a big believer in the idea that if you don't make mistakes you won't make anything.
I have drawn out some shapes and am colouring them and then I will be inking the linework back on top. The problem is though, it looks truly fucking ugly and terrible and I'm losing faith in the notion that it will all come together in the end.

I sometimes think my career would run more smoothly if I had the filter that makes type look like smoke, the one that makes it look like an Xray of a sea shell, the one that makes it looks like exploding lumps of chalk, and the one that makes it look like shiny perspex blocks.
Then, if I could just google the perfect starscape as my backdrop, I'd be pumping out magic grafix for Nike, Pepsi, The Guardian, Dazed&Confused and Reebok, just like all those other cats.

I'm sorry to post again but I just remembered soemthing. I'll stop after this and go and do some professional colouring in.
I was talking to my gwife and our guests last night about thinking about moving on from this industry so everyone was brain storming ideas for my next vocation, based on my aptitudes. My gwife came up with the best suggestion though. She looked at me with all sincerity and said " Maybe you could do some evening classes and, you know... make wood for a living"
Oh right, yeah. That's a thought.
- I keep coming back to this too. not creating wood, as such, but working with it, like my dad. and Blawkelpie
- No but... 'making wood' its... you... YOU CAN'T MAKE WOOD!Horp
- unless she's suggesting you whore yourself out? which, from your gwife, is a glowing referencekelpie
- make wood? So you're talented in that department eh? Well I think that the ladies get paid more in that industry...ian
- hey man, a reliable cock is a rare commoditykelpie
- I did wonder if that's what she meant. In fact I did briefly whop the goods out, much to the surprise of our guests.Horp
- makewoodâ„

Thinking about heading across the street for a few drinks...
There's really nothing much better than seeing the account people coming into the studio, then stopping abruptly with a perplexed look on their face as they stare at my empty chair, while I order another scotch and light a fag...

Friday, the 13th! Sweet.
Last time I tried to do something on this day I failed my driving test and literally saw the number 13 everywhere. But I refuse to believe it's bad, as my birthday is on Friday the 13th this year and has been a few times already throughout my life.
- Thats your latent hindii superstitions in full FXHorp
- Draw a big 4 on the palm of your left hand.Horp
- what the...
Christians are the most afraid of this. They even skip that number while making houses!juhls - What do you mean by Hindi, by the way? hahajuhls
- 13 is a universally bad number, but more for Hinduism than anyone I think. What do I know though, I only scored 34%Horp
- Really? Well, my parents never believed in it. But they claim it's because I was born on the 13thjuhls
- Like I said though, I know naffink, I just type and words fall out.Horp

it is postulated that schizophrenia stems from private familial language that has become so self-referential that no one outside the family understands it

Spooks, not sure if you care, but:
"Though the West believes in unlucky numbers, such as 13, the Hindu way does not. According to the Hindu philosophy, all numbers are good - some just prove to be better."
That's a bit of a lie, but it depends on the person. I know my mom hates certain numbers, including 2. 8 is the worst, I believe.
"In numerology, 8 and 13 are among the few numbers that are said to have a negative connotation. The fear over 8 is due to its association with Saturn and 13's due to its inauspiciousness."
So you were partly correct. I guess my family doesn't care about the number 13 because they don't want to make me feel bad, and now they actually believe it's a good number instead of bad. Also, in Hindu numerology, my number is not 13. It's actually 4 (adding the numbers together) and my second number is 3 (calculated using my entire birth date). Apparently the 4 owns me until I am 35, and then 3 takes over.
I don't believe in it, but my family does.

Have you ever been in a situation where you are so fucking angry, so fucking close to boiling point at someone that you just want to take a fucking pop at them? Just one, doesn't ever matter that you know absolutely 100% that it will just make the situation worse. Some people are just cunts that will fucking take advantage as soon as give you the time of day.
Well add to that a fucking 35 minute wait in a post office that resembles the third circle of hell and thats where I am. I'd punch ghandi right now if he so much as looked at me wrong. (and was still alive, of course)
