Aim for the moon and if you miss you will reach the stars...

decos. and other stuff.

hmmm, i did have a bit of a rant for my last written entry... it's definitely something that pisses me off though. i just wish that honest swappers didn't get involved with dishonest swappers and then there wouldn't be any problems, but it's not like we have swapping police, and nor should we. does that make sense? i have no idea... i'm in a weird mood today so expect the unexpected!
work is busy as usual. i should be doing work right now but am feeling a bit stale. that could be because i keep staying up to watch wimbledon and also because at work i am working on a massive project that needs to be done perfectly or the auditors will get angry.
my eyes hurt like hell. i don't know what has happened but i am tempted to pull them out and clean them - that's how bad they feel!
i want to go to the buffy convention that's coming here next week, but can't find anyone who will go with me. i know that if i miss out on this one there may never be another one again... sniff!
poor lilly has an ear infection, and i detest giving her the ear drops. she knows they're coming and groans and yelps and trys to get away. horrible.
i've been inspired by some deco art i've discovered on the web. it all started when i followed a trail of online journals to get to people i vaguely knew of in the swapping world. this then led me on a trail of deco websites until i found an awesome art site. i'm so happy to know that there are decoers out there who are dedicated to making decos look absolutely amazing, rather than just sticking a magazine pic on the page. can't wait to join some groups and get myself back into regular group swapping again :) i feel a little depressed though knowing what crafty things i want to do but not having enough room to do them in - i feel like i'm caged in. i'm also getting sick of being asked why i do things - i scan all the decos i do (that are good - definitely not the hurried, 5 minute job ones!) so that i can create a gallery of my work once i have time to do some web design for my site (and find a new host!!!!!). why is this such a big deal to my family? why can't they understand that i like what i like (whether it's common knowledge or 'underground')? i'm not hurting anyone by doing decos, or sending mail, or collecting stuff (although i am starting to take up too much room...)
