I've been wrapped up in business B.S. for awhile. Things are starting to pan out into a steady work rhythm now, so I hope I can start posting more regularly. I love the new designs I'm seeing. I'm jealous as hell. As soon as I get a free weekend, I'll have to try to keep up with the Jones'.
Sonya - Wow... I absolutely love your artwork.
I can't get over what a talented bunch of people this group is. You guys always surprise the hell out of me as I learn more and more about you.
Not much going on here... work, work, work.... I'd like to talk about something else, but that's all there seems to be at the moment.
I know, I'll make another trivial differences of England and the States list.
Some good things about England -
1. A jar of peanut butter only costs about 60 cents and really tastes like it uses real peanuts. Soup in a can that says it has meat in it, actually has alot of meat in it.
2. A great deal of the T.V. announcers here have severe lisps. (It cracks me up at least once a week.)
3. After a rain, these giant snails come out everywhere. These things are huge, and look like something out of a Lewis Carroll story. Also, I prefer magpies to crows. Magpie's just seem to have a whole lot of personality. They look just like crows except they are white with black wings and a black head.
4. English documentary's are in my opinion the best in the world, and I get to see alot of them here.
5. I've got hypothyroidism and have to take a pill everyday and go to the doctor's for a blood test once a year. The visits to the doctor and medication for this is free for me here.
Some bad things about England -
1. England closes at 11pm.
2. You have to pay a monthly tax to watch regular airwaves T.V. Also, I pay an $800 city tax (for fire, police, museums, etc...) on top of all my regular taxes. (The English sure do know how to tax.)
3. All the radio stations have the same fucking dance beat 24/7. With my napster now out of reach, I'm in musical hell.
4. A bottle of Jack cost about $50 and a pack of cigs cost about $7. (It's kind of good, I guess, 'cause I've had to quit both.) (wine and beer are the same price as in the States)
5. Tabloids, tabloids, tabloids!!! This country is star gossip crazy!
Well, that's good enough for now. I haven't sat down and actually read through the blogs in awhile. I'll try to catch up on the most recent ones. I hope everyone is doing well. Cheers.
