What is Happening?

Let's see. I finished up illustration work. The fact that I don't have a new contract for the work I've nearly finished makes me a little grumpy, thankfully I know I will get paid and the rate should be at least closer to a real rate than before, if not actually a real rate. I did some commercial work yesterday that went relatively smoothly. Shot a model for a salon ad, it was good times. Good things about the shoot are the lack of 50% discount on my labor (yay) and the fact that they are pretty happy with what I handed over. I wish my soft box hadn't self-destructed as I was putting it together but it should be more than fixable and really: what should I expect from knock-off products from China. As long as the lights hold out I'll be happy. I have a meeting next week to go over the future of this endeavor.

I got a new optical prescription today and I am looking forward to seeing properly by next week, plus: new glasses! My cousin's stag night is on Saturday, the wedding next Saturday and then on Sunday we are on our way to Denver/Utah.

Other random things: Rona still misses: Othello, Great-Grandpa Jim and Aberdeen. She has also declared she is moving to London so she can be the big sister for Pascale. Also she finished her Pike level swimming classes and has been recommended to take eal [sic] next: go Rona!
