Cox and Steph rocked up today to give me my birthday present because Cox is pissing off to Tasmania to start a new life. Cox does these awesome portraits of people using his airbrushing-type skills, so I have this large photo-realistic portrait of me looking evil done entirely black and red. It's really cool, but I'm a bit weird about seeing photos of me, and I'm afraid of letting it in my room while I'm sleeping in case it tries to eat my soul. It's giving me this weird look as we speak. Still, awesomely cool, and if it wasn't so large I'd put it on my scanner and show you.

That was about it for my day, really, apart from me not doing anything my mother wanted me to do because Cox and Steph were over. I just didn't expect them to want to hang around, and Cox was also an hour later than planned, I just couldn't go and pick up Kara and pick up Mum's tickets for some ball thing. I have failed as a daughter, obviously, but that's nothinig new.

What else? I did a graphic for [livejournal.com profile] deadspiders's birthday tomorrow. It's not übercool, as I drew it with a mouse--and that's drew drew, not used the mouse and the polygonal lassoo to select the area and then colour it--but I still think it's kinda nifty. I just have to remember to post it tomorrow. Alternatively, I could do it tonight. Most people aren't up as late as I normally am, right?

I also redesigned my LJ, by which I mean I went back to the default purple because it's pretty and tinted one of my photos to put in the background. I was getting sick of the brown, and I was planning on switching to Slytherin Green, but I like this purple too.

I've redrawn the damn glove pattern I was working on a few months ago. I'm really hoping it'll fit this time, but of course one has no guarantees for these things. I need some material for a mock-up, though, which is where it all falls down. I had some leftover panne, but good lord above that stuff is a bitch to work with. On a small scale, at least. The material distorted to the degree where I just threw it out after attempting to cut it out. I still have black dust all over my desk from the stupid stuff. I did design and colour the most awesome design for putting on them once I get the pattern right and them cut out and so forth, though. Makes it all worth it.

I've picked up my Slytherin scarf again, and done a little more work on that. I've come to the conclusion that it won't be finished until it's longer than I am tall, though, so this might yet take some time.

I believe Cox had a photo of that particular picture up on the web somewhere so he could show it off and get criticisms about it from the rest of us. He'd probably be willing to give you the link/photo for showing-off purposes. ^_^

It's nice that once in awhile I can come up with a good idea.

I love the word pom. It always makes me think I'm seeing porn on this tiny monitor. *facepalm*

Don't mind me. 'Sjust, you were singing it sometime and you didn't know the words. Neither did I. :-)

The only words I didn't know specifically were Sonnez le matinez, but I knew the *sound* of them. :)
