I was asked by R to send them another sketch for a second article that they sent me, so that they'd know my first successful drawing wasn't a fluke. Given the investment involved this seems fair. I sent them off and got an email back the next morning saying well done, and that they were lovely. I'm choosing to see this as a positive sign. Waiting continues apace.
Acquired the adobe CS4 design package somewhat belatedly, and it is delicious. Photoshop in particular was always a wee bit slow on my macbook for some reason, but holy balls the new version runs like the clappers. AND IT HAS TABS. My life is complete.
Going down to Wellington next weekend for a 30th birthday party on Friday, Tamsyn's mentor program graduation thingy on the Saturday, and hopefully amongst seeing people and doing stuff, some quiet time with Tamsyn. Long distance is a little bit stinky at times, but that's okay. Early days yet and I'll be down in Wellington before too long.
Talking of 'acquiring' things, I have 'acquired' a bunch of new music, which I'm listening my way through quite happily. TO WHIT: more Arcade Fire, Explosions In the Sky and Silversun Pickups, AS WELL AS Fever Ray, Florence and the Machine, La Roux and Kaki King. Whooo!
