entry two - 7 December 1999

in which i shop and lil'bro fails his last uni subject

eeehhuuu -- just got back from staggering around the city with lil'bro looking desperately for christmas presents for one and all, and birthday presents for Big-P. SO far i have managed to find all the presents Ma asked me to get for Big-P that is the Matirx on DVD (not that he has a DVD player, but that's how he wanted his current fave moof -- pity DVD's are 800 bucks or more), and a very spunky t-shirt that looks like all the other t's he has - which is what he likes. found lil'Bro's loverly K the cook book i've been trying to find for her. but what do I get Big-P??

Ma and Pa are getting a huge wicker picnic basket complete with strap in crockery and cutlery from me, Big-P, loverly K and lil'Bro, which is a fantastic present. they are picnic-aholics but always fill the back of dad's car with boxes of food and bits and pieces, this is much more classy.

We had a lolaland meeting last night which was really constructive. we are aiming to launch the site in march and i was beginning to get worried about the amount of work involved in the development. we came up with a solid set of goals and ideas for the project as well as the beginnings of how we will go about getting it all together. we have decided to get together every monday night until launch to make sure we're all on track. i feel much better about the whole thing - it was beginning to get too huge.

i should get back to work - i have to finish a two colour illustration for scott for tomorrow morning and it's going pretty slowly. i am moving away from my usual style which i think is a very good thing. i was stressing about it quite a lot, as i've been doing my very safe j otto type illos for the last couple of years and these are much more caligraphic, more lyrical, still in Illustrator but much more arduous to do.

better go --

bye
