Delicious Library

it catalogs, scans (if you have an isight or barcode) or you can simply add in a title and it will reference Amazon…. It links with ical and address book allowing you to specify who borrowed what and will put a reminder in your calendar…. changes I would like to see are configurable looks or skinning support, access to more databases for referencing and some kind of subscription service to friends libraries as well.

Mac Luuuurve

the more I use my Mac the more I love its simplicity, its superior speed and handling and its complete lifestyle. I have been a avid PC user for so many years but I got so sick of all the spyware and virus’ and fell in love with the elegance of Macs both in the OS and the machines themselves…. I also love the proteus chat client, its interactivity with my Mac address book and the look puts it over fire in my opinion.

Transitions

It has come to my attention that, although I regret taking so much time away from Painting it has been very beneficial for my art. To quote a brilliant book – “waiting is filled” I think I may have made the transition from “competent draftsman” to “artist”…. I am now learning to take the subject and make it my own, using the techniques I have learned and turning them on their heads…. This is the historical method of learning and it has given me a good eye and excellent technique.

We’re Not Worthy!

June 30th, Palais Theater…. there is a package that allows you to go backstage and meet him and everything!… it would cost 1 grand for Liam and I to both go under the platinum option, but it is so worth it.

Revelations

And the more you keep working in the mold the more you feel you belong?… Being crippled has really helped me work out a number of things, my girlfriend Ally says it sounds like I have been on a meditation retreat (she went on a 10 day one with non stop meditation, celibacy and silence – a big ask for her but she did it and got a lot out of it!… I ended up in therapy and almost had another breakdown, all of this should have pointed me in the right direction but I guess you need to hit me over the head with a car before I get a point !

Inspiration for the day

I am now thinking of writing a musical based on a sci fi story, perhaps Green Hills of Earth by Heinlein, I already started penning a complex piece (in my brain – it sounds good in my brain – who knows in real life) to the green hills of earth poem and there are many others, I think the story might lend itself, but I will have to investigate further…. The problem with having a brain like my dad’s is that I have constant ideas, but most of them are shite…. I would brainstorm here but I don’t know if the creative commons license will prevent it from being stolen and I think this one is a doozy!

It Figures

There is an exhibition on at the Highway Gallery in Mount Waverley starting on the first of April. It’s called ‘figuratively Speaking’ and is based on the human figure…. I have been thinking of exploring sexuality but that might be a little forward for Mount Waverley (considering I went to school there…)

I’m a cosmo Girl, in a cosmo world!

Cosmo wrote an article about ideal beauty, apparently there is a hip to waist ratio that makes you irresistible to men… Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell and Marilyn Monroe all have the same ratio (despite being different sizes) the ratio is worked out by dividing your waist measurement by your hips measurement then multiplying by 100…. Cosmo has really tried to work on body image and an all sizes all beautiful policy.

Guinea Pig

I am tolerated to Feldene and Voltarin now but the Doc is trying me on something new, it is apparently gentler on the stomach but close to feldene. We shall see how it goes but I am hopeful, a little worried about how it interacts with alcohol but usually they enhance each other which is nice, that’s what feldene does…. While I was at the doctors I got a referral for a specialist as per the lawyers request, he is apparently a leading authority on back injuries and may even be able to help (with the pain, not the cases) I am deathly afraid of having surgery or quartizone injections recommended – it sounds so wrong to introduce foreign substances like that and surgery is just wrong.

Martian Death Flu

why is it that you can cope with tons of pain and heaps of problems but colds and flu can knock you on your ass faster than anything. I have been in agony for months but I really really want to die now…… erg, I can barely type because I feel so bad.
