Well, we've started off the year with fireworks. And nearly burnt the house down, incidentally. @.@
I do mean that literally, actually - we are minus one front paddock from where the header started a fire! Hopefully the machinery is mostly alright, it moved afterwards and seemed to mostly be functional, bar a few tyres and belts here and there. So, not burnt toast - you don't call out the fire brigade for burnt toast. XD
Thought we'd lose the house for a bit, as the flames were roaring well in that direction (well within 100m, I'd say), and our house is a bit of a tinderbox in build.
Well, I always wondered what it would be like if we had a fire around the house, and now I know! LOL - wonder what my new sister-in-law thought of her last day (Clayton) holidaying on the farm
But the excitement has mostly died down now, and most of us are sleeping it off. Myself, I have cleared my inbox to about 1400 messages. Better than 2000! @_@
And I have been spending the last few days rearranging my room! (Yes, I should be doing other things, but sometimes you just get an urge you can't put off >.> ) And I now have a small studio in there. It was becoming impossible to function without a bit of properly dedicated space.
It's a bit of a wonder how I'm fitting everything in there, though: studio (with large easel), bed, three bookcases, piano, filing cabinet, bureau drawer set, full-length mirror The room wouldn't be 3m x 3m, it's actually quite small.
Obviously living in a caravan teaches you something about conserving space

Incidentally, I'm living in a lake
Alright, to be fair, I'm not actually living in a lake. It's just that the town I live in was recently flooded, as has what feels like the majority of Australia. (And most of the water has gone down by now anyway :D )
A week straight of rain falling on the roof does absolutely nothing for your washing basket though, I've discovered.
Dammit, this is AUSTRALIA, it's not supposed to rain here!
If nothing else, I've learnt that I, and I suspect a lot of other Aussies (particularly of my drought-accustomed generation) do not deal well with large quantities of water coming out of the sky. What in the world are you supposed to do with it??
This journal is a... boredom buster?

Status: back at university/ other educational institution. (Is it a coincidence that mental asylums are referred to as institutions?)
Most enjoying: finally having studio space at said institution
Regretting: The lack of anything interesting to write about... >.<
Has recently achieved: The successful design of a friend's birthday invitations! Yeay!

The title of this journal entry has absolutely no reference to its contents... Neither does its turtle.
Btw, has anyone noticed that it's less than 10 days until November? Now, normally that is of no interest to me.

Well, hopefully any Laby fans will enjoy the piece of fanfiction I'm intending to write. I need to get some more planning for the plot done before starting though... political intrigue! Not something I want to pull off the top of my head while I'm wr
Holidays = back again

Okaaaay, seems I'm only ever on here during holidays now... need to work on that ^^; But WTH? I have a sub again, so return of the stamps.
This is why facebook is so pointless - because people write all the pointless things they're doing and have nothing to say. Not that the sheer pointlessness isn't amusing.
*Sigh*. I'd honestly have more to say, but I just read a rather depressing story. I don't like depressing... I might draw something (REALLY? You'd NEVER guess I'm a so-called ARTIST?!) Buuuut there's a bit of left-over work I need to get done. Including finishing poor ~James-Austin-Valiant (https://www.deviantart.com/james-austin-valiant)'s design that

Sounds like crazy hectic fun! Mine involved fireworks too, but in the less catch-on-fire-y way. XD I wish I could dedicate a continuous amount of space to working on projects, but my room never seems to remain clean for more than a couple of days. And as for inbox cleaning, just the thought itself is dizzying. @.@
