Ok, I've decided I'm sick enough to justify not going to work today. Fever, phlegm, explosive coughing fits, thoroughly sore throat now. Bleh. No Ludus for me tonight; I'm keeping my germs to myself.
In other news,
my-sister-the-tour-guide has actually been
reading my LJ. Hi, Bun Rab! So I guess I'll have to try harder to put some real content in public posts.
This morning my mother sent me an email chock-full of interesting photographs. Since I'm not a big fan of sharing huge emails, I went surfing to see if I could find the artist's website, and sure enough, I did. The artist is one
Guido Daniele, a hyper-realistic illustrator who does body-painting. The particular bits of interest were paintings of animals he did on hands, which may be seen
here and
here. Apparently he was recently featured in
Reader's Digest and
Animal Planet.
In closing, I will leave you with a thought that has tied in to too many things I've seen in just the couple of hours I've been up this morning, and thus must be shared:
