The Art of Eating

Todays been quite a relaxing day. Spoken to a few people from my old Uni, a couple of friends of mine who live locally, good ol' flyakite and a fantastic girl called Sarah who I've not actually met yet - but like me, is a complete pizza addict and chocoholic. Went to town to see my mate Max and stock-up on more pizza. Returned a DVD that was overdue and cost me £7.50 - then stupidly rented 3 more (3 for 2 offer though ). Came home, went into the kitchen...

And my food won't fit in the freezer!

Okay, here's the situation... My dad lives with his fiancé in the next villiage, yet he's filled the freezer with food and now mine won't fit. He only comes here to do work in his office, and so its likely that he'll never get through all his food. We don't have a grill since that broke, so some of it probably can't be cooked anyway. So for now, everything's going in the fridge and I'm going to have to eat it pretty damn fast.

Not really a problem for me though.

Since then, I've been looking at the toon character I did of myself a while back for using on message boards which you can see in the 'About Me' section on the right, and my message board signiture below:



I've always felt happy with them, but the style I've found to be quite restrictive in what I can do. It's a similar style to the one I used in high school, with a little bit of a simpsons-look thrown in, but I've found that doing it that way makes it hard for me to express different emotions with it. It's not exactly anything to do with the style - it's more that I'm just not that good at drawing - and it's harder doing it using nothing but a mouse! So anyway, I've been sketching a few different styles and some will give me a bit more freedom, but I'm still not sure if I should move away yet from the current look as it does have a bit of that dumbass-quality to it...

Then I got bored and drew myself an Eskimo-Ninja infront of an igloo. I might scan in my pictures and post them up sometime, but for now, I've got a lot of food I need to eat and a lot of movies I need to watch.
