Return of the dumb drawings

So I kinda fell off the face of planet lj. To be honest nothing's really happened. You know, the usual.

A few things to know:

I didn't get the job applied for. I did however, get a face to face interview with one of the senior designers at the company which went super well.

I was housesitting at my nan's place while she was on her crazy two month Europe trip. Bek stayed with me and it was fun :)

Got myself really into the 'Song of Ice and Fire' series by George R.R. Martin and the HBO adaptation. It's really good. The books a long, but I haven't been excited for a book to come out in a while. Plus there's still two more books of the series to come out, plus all the seasons of the tellie series and I'm as giddy as a school girl about it all :D

Discovered 'How I Met Your Mother' seasons 1-6 and all was hilarious. (Which reminds me, SEASON SEVEN SHOULD BE HERE NOW OR SOMETHING :/)

Ran the SUTHERLAND TO SURF with Justine. Finished it at 1hr and 6mins. Definitely a milestone moment in my life. There's terrible photos of me around on the site but I'll leave it you you to find if you want a good laugh (and to see what true pain and exhaustion look like).

The call of better internet and my stuff got me back home when Nan returned. Love my net. Love it a whole lot.

Grew quite attached to my twitter account. #Intervention

Starting doing Bikram Yoga. I will make you all go with me eventually. It's fantastic. Just bring a big towel and a fat water bottle.

Bought a 3DS. I have no regrets.

I'm officially leaving Wesley at the end of the year. I've learnt everything I think I can learn here. I can't settle here either so I'll be looking out for jobs and all that jazz. Big whoop.

And that's about everything I can think of now.

I guess the biggest thing that's happened between then and now that deserves a whole lot of space was that my dog Toby passed away. It was kinda sudden. He just stopped eating and being himself around the house. We got him checked out and it turns out he had the last stages of cancer, completely undetectable until now. He was constantly in pain, wouldn't touch his food and besides an injection that maybe could have given him a couple more months, there was nothing else we could do for Toby. I was really upset by it, as we all were, but I think we were doing the right thing by Toby to put him down. Sure we could have maybe extended him life, but who were we doing that for? Toby, or ourselves?

It's weird that he isn't around anymore, especially when I see photos of him, or casually drop him in conversation as if nothing's happened. It's like I see dogs everywhere now too, which gets a little depressing. I can't help but think he's still going to be there when I get home you know?

He was a good dog though. The best ever :)

Ugh I'm getting all moody. I'm jumping ship now. Talk later.

catch-up, a song of ice and fire, doodles, life in general, toby, how i met your mother, game of thrones
