yeah, that was work. and then harassing jamjar for things to do with prawns. Which segued into the quest for 3/4 length tracksuit bottoms. Where i immediately sympathised because we have the same body type. Shortarse, hourglass figure with an arse and muscled big thighs. Which means nearly all trousers have to be petite or short length, gape at the waistband and can be a right sod to fit on the thighs.

watching last ep of Wire S1. ♥

Annie Mac's Mashup in the background.

This would be ultimate relax if I had alcohol but not really in the mood for a G'n'T, which is pretty much the only drinkable stuff in the house as far as I'm concerned. ETA: Oooo, spotted bottle of Baileys tucked around back of a clump of wine bottles!

latest ep of Chuck is finishing equalising its uploaded data on the torrent. not looking forward to it that much. chuck's gotten a bit boring, even with all the plot build up. Seeing all the 'Save Chuck' stuff and going 'eh'. I highly, highly doubt that'll save it if it is doomed. Not without a surge in ratings. I just doubt it is. it's one of the biggest sets, and they're more likely to be holding off since it's end of second season with probable contract renegotiations.

pondering... hmm. Oh, I know. Got a fave artist that people don't expect from you given your normal tastes? Me, I'm almost completely a representative realist, with some graphics and photoshop trickery love thrown in, fell in love with documentary photography of all kinds as a kid, not fond of abstract, surrealism and so on, loathe pop art something chronic. Given all that, I still have no idea how one of my utter faves snuck up on me and brained me with a two-by-four. It was a case of 'walked into that bit of the gallery, and people found me sitting in front of the painting ten minutes later gawping with tears running down my face'.

See if you can guess before clicking on the cut. Did you get it right? Be honest. Jackson Pollock

Huh. Because you know, I like (some) surrealists, I like abstracts and so on, but Jackson Pollack leaves me utterly cold.

It used to until I saw it in the flesh. Then I realised that for some paintings, the difference between original and photo is canyon-esque. Oddly, I prefer the Mona Lisa (which leaves me cold as it is) in print form to the real thing.

Ever been to the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam? He definitely doesn't come across fully in a photo.
