I am a bird now


When I wanted the feathered skirt on ASOS I didn't buy it immediately because I hadn't been paid and didn't really want to overdraw my account (because I do it often enough when I need to feed my caffeine cravings). When I finally got paid the skirt was gone.
Skimming over the ASOS site tonight I found this...my pay hasn't gone through yet and I've already overdrawn my bank account (thanks to weekend adventures) but I don't care.
I'll sit by my mailbox for the next two weeks waiting for it to arrive now...and I will wear it the moment it gets here, even if Melbourne continues with the 40degree weather.


Slightly more boring news


I handed in my screenprinting folio on Monday. I worked with second hand books, printing directly on to the pages. Trying to present my 'resolved' pieces on a wall was an incredibly difficult task, believe me.
It seems like a mediocre folio to me, but as long as I pass I couldn't really care less. Considering I only went in to the studio twice a week with very limited access to the studio I'm quite pleased with how many prints I managed to do, but it's still not the greatest work.

Also coping with major frustration at the moment. When work changed the computer systems and switched from Mac to Dell (worst idea ever if you ask me) I asked if I could buy one of the newer iMacs. Two months later I've finally been able to bring my new toy home (one macbook is not enough for a girl like me), and I was feeling pretty chuffed because the IT guy re-formatted it for me which saved me a trip (and the money) to the nearest Mac store.

...tomorrow I am taking it back in to work and making the IT guy re-load all the software, because the computer is fucked. No matter what I try I can't install the software because there's a system error.

Someone's going to end up with a stiletto in their temple tomorrow if they don't fix their mistake, let me tell you.
