Voulez-vous cesser de me cracher dessus pendant que vous parlez!*

So we're now well and truly in the second half of the year, with December looming around far too few corners for my liking. But things are going okay. I just now finished the final (fingers crossed) edits on my seminar paper, which will be delivered with grandiloquence and pizazz this evening. It feels good to have written something I like, even better that my supervisor also likes it. The biggest potential stumbling block is the questions, which considering the group will be many, varied, and excellent in quality, no doubt leaving me opening and shutting my mouth for whole seconds at a time whilst frantically digging through my brian to find something intelligent to say. Oh well.

I'm doing black and white stripes again today. It's a look that makes me feel funky and young, instead of all the ordinary like how I normally feel.

bastardang  and I had another market stall on Sunday, which didn't go too well because (we think) of it being Father's Day and therefore people looking for daddyman things not babyperson things to buy. So because we hardly sold anything we'll do the October markets as well, and definitely December, and probably November too, so hopefully that all goes well. bastardang  had her new sun hats for sale which are great, lovely colours and entirely unisex; I had my new pram-toy range, almost half of which got sold to a crowd of kids imploring their dad to buy them. I am gratefuly he was easily persuaded, though my favourite toy (the bee) went very quickly, as I knew it would. I have plans for stainless steel + silk bracelets...

Once again I am having dreams where I speak French fluently and wander around Parisian cafes ever-so-stylishly, reading Sartre and pondering the meaning of things by the side of the Seine. My subconscious isn't very subtle about wanting to go back, preferably on the back of the BWTAS next year. Speaking of which, I'm joining in a group art experiment Thursday lunchtime, should be fun, and signing up for a printmaking class in October. Yay. Finally I get off my ass and do something!

mandellebrotte  and _toastedcheese_  have been in town for the last week and a bit, and it has been really great to bask in their awesomeness once more. Like the warm glow from drinking 2 glasses of danox 's luvverly stout :)

All in all, huspaz, as my phone says when I try to type hurray.

*Would you stop spitting on me when you're talking!
