The heat is addling my brain. Hot,
gusting winds are blowing through my office window and like
a total fool, I forgot to bring in my fan. I am supposed to
be doing a ridiculous redesign but I can't for the life
of me concentrate - so instead I've been drawing cats
in Illustrator and listening to my Gerling record at high
volume - not very professional at all.
Big-P and I picked up some island
holiday brochures from STA this morning. He seems as keen
as I am to get away and lie on a beach. Usually he's
pretty resistant to the idea of going without computer contact
for more than a weekend, but I guess it's been a pretty
exhausting couple of weeks - plus he's mentioned taking
a laptop.
We're thinking Fiji, which seems
relatively cheap and only 5 hours there-abouts from Melbourne.
I should get a guide book or get onto the lonely planet BB
and check out when the rainy season is. Unless you know and
you can tell me
We had a Lolaland meeting yesterday.
I think I've mentioned Lolaland before - but just to
be a little more informative: Lolaland is a creative writing
/ illustration web project which I started up last July. Of
course - I can't say too much as it's such an awesome
idea that I don't want to tempt some big-ass company
to steal it. What I can say is that the launch date for the
site is the last week of March and we are not all that much
closer than when we started as far as development is concerned.
I think we are revisiting the project plan next meeting as
everyone in the group is always pretty busy doing other multimedia
jobs/classes/projects.
Anyway - last night people brought
along bits and pieces of content and we ate bucket loads of
take away Indian food and we went around and around reading
the stuff out loud. Everybody's writing is really, really
good and some of it is hysterically funny. It was probably
the best and most inspiring meeting yet. Everyone went away
sounding very excited compared to other meetings which usually
end with everyone being cranky and exhausted. Stay tuned.
I'm looking forward to the weekend…
what day is it? Ugggh.
