I mean... Why wouldn't you entirely abandon the plan when something doesn't go exactly as you'd imagined? Perfection or nothing, damn it!
Sitting in the attic, ripping CD's to iTunes to put on my mp3 player. I feel like I've time travelled back to 2008.
imagine looking at this moment of renewed outrage against mega-rich predators and thinking yeah, it's a good time for me, a mega-rich predator, to launch my comeback
Another banger from Inspector Organ. Utterly obsessed.

I'm so glad this tape still works. Always nice to revisit childhood faves.

A black and white illustration of a pregnant woman sitting on a chair. Another woman is supporting her from behind, while a second woman is sitting in front of her, ready to help deliver the baby.
For centuries, a βgossipβ was a woman who attended another woman's delivery. The word was a corruption of βgod-sibβ or βgod-sibling,β meaning βsister in the Lord.β The gossips offered support to mother & midwife. Only later did it become derogatory.

I'm glad it's not just me this happens to π
Aww, that's so sweet!
I blame myself. She's not been raised properly.
I have to say, I'm a little bit offended that my cat runs away whenever I pick up my cello. I'm not THAT screechy...

Shouldn't take too long to sort though, right? π¬
I've been unable to settle into my office downstairs, so I'm moving it to the attic. It's nice and quiet, and great for listening to the rain, but it's also a tip...
I'm getting on alright! Have gone back to a more analog way of working, which seems to be going well for me :)
Sounds like you've got quite a lot to choose from! Do you tend to just pick which one to work on as you go? I can only manage two projects at a time or it feels too chaotic!
So hard when you're excited about multiple projects! What kind of things are you working on?
