I has pictures of mah failed drawings of mah times in da youth of me, circa 2001-2003. You can has pictures of fail too! I draws best when sees magazine-pictures, not imagination-pictures. Imagination too potent for pencil! Pencil is weak! ( Drawing skills more weak! )

I has imaginary alphabet! I has two imaginary alphabets! Non-imaginative alphabets! One even goes backward! How innovative! ( Is illegible! With baby hippo! )

I has also diary front page! I has no reason for photograph except Autralian stamp! ( Dingo ate mah baby! )

* "I'm thinking about England in the rain", NGaiman

Let's all be mates! No need for a barney.*

Just finished watching The Plague Dogs on YouTube. Damn you, movie, for ending the movie there! Where's my happy ending?!? The movie is lovely, very quiet and slow, with lots of "nature shots" with the other half of the plot being recounted as a voice-over conversation between people. The repeated shots of the social-deprivation monkey hurt as all hell, and I really missed that they didn't have the worker rescue the poor thing. The fox, or "tod", was thankfully actually comprehensible in audio form, rather than the book's "I'm a gonna write the dialect down phonetically" Sheesh. And you'd think Nadsat is hard. (Also, I was totally not preparred for the tod's fate. D: )

Next up on the viewing list is Watership Down, which I haven't read but hear is depressingly sad. Sadder than crazy and/or tortured dogs starving on mountaintops ( doing soilery things? )

Ha!

I ought to work a bit on my project proposal. I worked on it yesterday, but nowhere near finished. I was all ready to work on it today, waltzing off to the computer lab at 11:30 am, but it was closed. So I hung out at the Burcht taking in some sun while I read the next case study for SBB then deciding to work at the train station's coffee shop, where you can stay for hours, but it's being remodelled so I went to the park in front of the nature museum but that was overrun by folk so I sat on a concrete block and ate a cookie then went home. Frustrated. Very. This was me this afternoon.
