all this noise is making me deaf...

...its not the noise that's making me deaf, its just my dodgy ear, playing up. I can only cope if i have my headphones on, anything else is just bad, and its not getting any better soon. Another 4 weeks of this insanity then i may feel a little bit better. I have to concentrate on other things to blot out the discomfort. Think, think, think...its no use.

i'm glad all that world cup bilge is over...

i couldn't wait for the final to end, i didn't watch extra time or the ceremonies. I had enough by that point, my results predictions went out the window too! Doing 'serious' drawings now, whatever that means (portraits), i don't know how long this will last, i'll give it a good go! I am aiming to do a portrait a day...i won't struggle for ideas i'm sure, just struggle to decide who i'm going to target! No flattery i'm afraid. I've got to cut out the cheap paper too. Have to invest in some decent stuff after i've used my stocks here. I've got to test myself now, see if i can churn them out, i've done 4 or 5 this week so far, so that feels good. Enjoying this rain and of course 'The Tour'.
