    A study of Pepper in packing paper. These make it look far calmer than it was.

          Not offered. They’re usually on the counter at reception in a bowl. If they’re not, you gotta ask.

    Reference and police checks are underway for the new role. All goes well should have an offer shortly.

    Excited, cause it’s something new. Nervous cause it’s something new. Anxious, cause I really don’t want to meet new people.

        I’ll have a few months to suss things out and hopefully fall into a nice groove.

        The new dept seems to be on the younger side, which is fine. I can deal with younger than older, enteenched

            You’re only as old as you think.

            I feel older but think younger generally.

            Instead of shaking people’s hands, I’ll dap them up and dab right after.

            That ought to raise my respect levels.

    Alfie has let me know that he plans on releasing books about the Grave Injustices That Cats Face, his first will be highlighting a particularly grievous instance that affects cats worldwide:

    Mum Had Ham and She Didn’t Give Me Any! (Okay, She Gave Me a Bit, But I Want MORE).

    He feels it will be a Sunday Times Best-seller.

    Well that’s enough news for today. Clive Palmer has a new political party, called Trumpets of Patriots. No this is not a Beetota advocate headline.

      I really hope he fails in spectacular fashion, there’s no place in Australia for a trump like party to exist.

      Also I’m sick of his ads on tv.

      Edit: Just to add he was forced to use this name because he failed to register his United Party name in time.

    What aggrevates me is that if you agree to do something, actually fucking follow through.

    If you don’t want to, then just say so, instead of fucking me around for days.

    Fucks sake.

    Some people don’t understand that they’re fucking with someone’s life.

    A lot of people in at work early, someone’s playing music from their room and the sound is travelling to me. Usually not so noisy so early I don’t know what’s up today.

    To counter it I’m playing Dua Lipa’s Houdini before I go outside.

    Wish I could print out my brain. Dreamt a manuscript/fresco I’d like to attempt painting, but seriously do not have time right now! Scribbled notes and crossed fingers for future memory it is.

      I remember reading Ridley Scott always has 9 projects on the go. And I read somewhere else many artists have ideas and projects that go no where or they drop.

      Knowing these things has eased my mind somewhat, I felt like a failure because I would get new ideas before I finished an old one. Knowing this has helped me keep enthusiasm. I also keep a diary.

      A brain printer for dreams would be so cool. I love my dreams, I’d miss them if they vanished. But I can never really explain them to someone, so that would be awesome.
