[personal profile] arkady asks the world: "How do you market your skills and sell yourself as an artist? How do you turn talent into earnings? I seriously need to learn." Because basically, we need the fucking money. She has a Facebook page (please like it and each post on it), Twitter, DeviantArt, CafePress. Commissions eagerly accepted!

Spent half the week sick in bed, thus missing Perth friends Wendy Smith and Gareth Jones visiting. Bah!

We now have two 30W 6400K daylight-spectrum bulbs in the lounge. That's 150W equivalent. Bloody hell, they're bright. [personal profile] arkady is finding herself perking up a lot — turns out bright light is good for wakefulness, particularly in this weather at this time of year. Though it's utterly unforgiving for any trace of grime in the room.

I don't need to detail Freda's reaction to the SNOW!!! Or mine. Annoyingly powdery, though; impossible to make anything out of. She enjoyed throwing snowballs at me, of course.

If they'd had the Internet in Biblical times, "don't read the comments" would have been in Leviticus right after the shellfish.

I was certainly brought up not eating shellfish, this doesn't seem at all remarkable within the Jewish community.

I assumed this was the case. But it does get a bit wearing having it used as an example of "something no real people do". (not specifically by you, I mean the meme generally).

I am glad to live in a world with flush toilets :D

(more specifically, I'm not aware of any specific taboos against shitting in the street, beyond those already mercifully enforced by British society in general)

If you keep on about how cute Freda is being, you'll start making me feel broody :)
