its taking much longer to recover from...

...illness, over-indulgence, physical exertions, even just sitting or standing still in the same place for more than five minutes! My joints seem to seize up after any short time of idleness; knees, knuckles, shoulders. I don't think i can blame the weather, i put it down to the effects of insomnia. Yeah, i think its lack of a sound night's sleep, even though i can sleep a little longer each night, more than i used to. God forbid, that i try to play any sport! Running for buses is tough enough, so no, i won't be doing a marathon either...marathon drawing maybe! I think the answer is to get more active, works for the brain i suppose. We'll see :P

getting dizzy making patterns...

...this is not helping my eyesight at all! They are also taking ages to do, but i've got tons more of em waiting to be finished. I might try and make my own wallpaper that would truly drive me insane i think, not just the putting together of the images, but then having to look at it on a wall! I'm now getting a headache, yawn, its bedtime!:)

starting to draw again...

...i managed to scribble these things this week. My head is not in the usual place these days(no jokes please!) so i'm feeling very distracted and less creative. I'll be doing more doodles as per usual, but i'll be trying to make em neater and cleaner, not sure it'll work for me as i tend to treat all pieces of paper grubbily! My printer is up the spout, but its producing some weird effects when i print stuff, think i'm going to go through a lot of ink, so hopefully i'll be able to manage the strange outpourings from the machine...i really do hate to waste paper, not to mention ink! You do know the inky stuff is more expensive than gold, don't you?
