so ive stayed up, intending to pull an all-nighter (im a late starter when it comes to getting down to work, but once i start its difficult to stop as i fear ill revert back to being all "non-chalent but actually really stressed")
what have i been doing? (for the few out there who might care..) well... ive been gathering lots of loose ends from various projects and trying to make them look presentable:
i plan on binding all these pieces into some sort of book to make it easier to plough through.. though the thought of bringing it in makes my back ache.
im at home in wilt-shire atm and the whole family is here .. which is both lovely and sort-of-not-so cos for some reason, although the festive season brings the family together, and kind-of makes it ok to greet strangers, (peck-em: not so much) i find that all that merry-ment, iceland prawn platters and whincy weather; the repetitive scarving and de-scarving and the cracked lips you force into some sort of smile actually induces prickliness in some people. i say some.
but before u label me a grump, note that aside from this i actually really quite like christmas, and all its sellotaped, tied and festooned twinkliness...
its a frugal christmas this year, but that's ok. actually, i'd much rather have one thoughtful present than several not so thoughtful ones.
anyways i saw a fish with a see-thru head! not in the flesh obviously (or scales or wateva) but on "decade of discovery" on the bbc (i think u can still catch it on i-player)
and what look like the eyes are actually its nostrils ...
there was also a hot pink millipede, and a stick insect longer than my arm.. yeah, interesting... who needs aliens?
