betrayal:
I love old furniture too, primarily 50's/early 60's stuff, I'm a bit of a sucker for 'tat' as I believe it is called. That's a pretty sweet chair though and for 4 squid it's a bit of a bargain.

Yep, I always prefered keeping that little bit of integrity and self respect regarding the old sucking cock to get a better job routine. Hasn't actually got me anywhere in life but I feel I always have the moral high ground in any situation! Oh yeah.

You have some pretty tattoos there, I am such a sucker for spiderwebs, I have some on my feet and behind my ears and I was thinking about getting some on the inside of my elbows (because elbows ARE important!)

When is your girlie girl back in town?

betrayal:
Jesus!! I forgot the stylophone!! Nothing better then Rolf Harris endorsed musical entertainment...
missredcherry:
That is such a cool chair and such a bargin too!

I love the elbow. Is it all swollen. I remember when I had mine done I couldnt move my arm for a week and I had a wicked yellow bruise as well. I want a new tattoo!

Those paintings are wicked. Is your flat covered in your art? I really like the green one! Show us more of your paintings!
betrayal:
Yep, I have some black tribal stuff on my elbow, it was gay. It fucking hurt having it done and then loads of the colour fell out and I had to have it redone which hurt twice as much. G A Y. frown

Stiill, I LOVE spiderwebs and I also LOVE symetry. Most of my tattoos are kind of symetrical. Hence the nickname Symetry Girl, superhero in a maths based subject!! Oh well, I'm getting some of my back coloured on Thursday, I can't wait but it's also gonna be 30 degrees which sucks!

I love your little paintings, they are awesome. I used to paint and stuff but haven't in years (art college drop out) but today, if they are cheap enough I may buy a new art book.

Only 4 more days to go!!
mck:
Work is good. Got lots to do before the con, though. So I better get to it!
betrayal:
Yesterday I took my mum to the shopping experience that is Croydon. She has been nagging me to take her for ages so I finally relented. It was interesting, she mentioned that it was far more 'cosmopolitan' then she remembered!! Hahaha!!!

I read that about the whole symetrical thing, like with some models faces they are practically symetrical. Weird...and I thought I was different, not just following some rule that is implanted into everyones mindset?! Blah!!

Wow, your eyeballs swell when you eat king prawns!!? Eyeballs...Swell....thats gotta be interesting to watch. Perhaps not so nice for you.

Don't a lot of artists think that though about their own work, you are after all your harshest critic. Other people look at it from a completly fresh angle. I have been trying to print simple designs onto cardigans and my boyfriend says they look good but I see improvements that need to made.

I'm off to see that War of the Worlds thing today, not to bothered about it myself...the boy wants to see it though. I just hate Tom Cruise...I was wishing that water incident wasn't a lame practical joke...more a psycho maniac with acid in a water pistol.

Oh well, catcha later alligater.

(p.s - 2days? smile )
betrayal:
I didn't go to the cinema yesterday as it was too freakin hot. I couldn't make myself walk the 15 minute walk at 1.30 in the afternoon to a hot cinema. I may go tomorrow instead. Today is tattoo day in the 31 degree heat. Oh yeah!! I saw that Batman film too, I thought it was gonna be a load of toss but it was really good, I especially liked it when Christian Bale was all dressed up in a suit - it just totally reminded me of American Psycho everytime he did a smarmy smile.

Wow, I love collecting all the tickets at the Trocadero, it makes you fell really good when you have 4 million of them but then realise that wins you a christmas cracker toy!

Take it easy!

smile

Hey
Whens your lady back?

Your paintings are wicked. You should really sell them. It may not bring in a lot of money but it will bring in some extra cash to pay for more art supplies. I think most artists dont like their work. We always see room for improvement.
Anyone who buys a painting then chucks it away would be an idiot in my book. If I ever get the money to buy paintings and photographs I dont think I would be able to chuck them away. people have put too much time and energy into the painting for me to disregard it in such a horrible way.

I had to have my elbows recoloured when I had them done. I lost a bit of colour esp on the really boney parts.

Do you have any plans for the weekend?
betrayal:
I'm guessing a certain little lady is back in town huh?! smile
carnival_kid:
So theres nothing like declaring your abject misery for all the world to see.
Neway evening mate hows life apart from the crippling sense of longing. I was gona ask where u worked at the mo c if u fancied meeting up town for a drink after work, but I quit me job so thats rather redundant now. That said we should meet up anyway I havent seen you in ages and Raymondo is supposedly gona be back in the country soon. That is if I believe what he tells me!

O and apparently Russ tried to get off with one of Jess's mates last night after impressing here with his air guitar technique. O I so wish I was there to c it.

man all that shit in london fucks me off, and today the police shot a man in the tube. he jumped the gates and ran down to the tube with a bag on his back and got on a tube, the police got him and shot him five fucking times.
and yes he is dead. GOOD.... mad

see ya, pics the way skull
carnival_kid:
Alright mate I take it the happy hyperactive yeah great, everythings great, lets do that yeah great, comment was cos the misss is coming back 2day.
Im not sure about Russ's air guitar technique but I bumped in 2 Jess and her mates down the Sheep (yeah metal night!) last night and I was told mines better. And the girl apparently pulled back so fast she nearly fell backwards. Best thing is Russ dont remember so he has no idea if he did it or not. All he said was I'm sure I would have remembered that.

And yeah Raymond should b around in the next week or so for a month. Hes talking bout coming back 4 good.
And yeah all that beautiful scenery a chance 2 soak up another culture and do something different 4 a few years and being able 2 live with the olds all the while would do my nut as well.
But I'm not there so I dont no and theres prob other stuff going on as well.
betrayal:
I so need a new job. But it all so complicated at the moment. If I get a new job maybe I won't get off my arse and do my own thing or maybe I'll want to do it more!? confused Bahhh!!!!

What career path are you trying to follow young Jedi?

(And I hope Dotty is recovering well, Nurse Deadone)
missredcherry:
Hey! hows it going?

Have you been looking after you lady?
betrayal:
Wow, you took out your piercings!! I dunno if I could do that you know. I would feel really funny about it and plus I hate the fact that employers seem to think that if you have facial piercings it's because you are retarded and probably a serial killer. I have the potential for the latter and thus great intelligence to pull it off!! Proving that equation void! Maybe.

Not all employers are like that though, I got hired to work at the Financial Times with bright red and black dreads to me bum and ickle flesh tunnels when not many people had them. I think that may be a one off though.

Have you got any feedback on any of your applications?

And you are such a gentleman for letting your girlie go to university first. Bravo old chap! biggrin
ciel:
hey i really like your paintings, any chance I can buy one?
dotty:
Come home from work you smelly bum and help me tidy up!! I look like this skull right now. Yes, I look like a skull. Because;
1. There was a lot of dust in the flat so now my hair is all dusty and most of my face is grey or has dirt smudges on it.
2. I have done so much housework and exercise I am wasting away. Yes that's right, I'm nearly a skeleton!! eeek

p.s I may have been lying about the second one.

kiss xx
