Photoshop?
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:11 / 29.09.05
Yup.

02:14 / 29.09.05
Fucking.

02:15 / 29.09.05
Cooooool.

I gotta ask: Painted texture on the rock or photo manipulation?
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:17 / 29.09.05
Aww shucks. Its enough to make a guy blush.

02:22 / 29.09.05
Are you now, or have you ever been, a chronic manipulator?
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:22 / 29.09.05
The rock was sculpture was drawn grayscale in photoshop and then ovelayed with various layers of photos for the textures and colouring. Photos such as:
-Macro shots of bathsalts.
-Fat that rose to the top of a pot of soup,
-Macro shot of that sticky plastercine like stuff you use to put up posters.
-The bottom of a cookie sheet

So that's a 'yes', then?

Very, very fine work, mon.

What else is new?
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:28 / 29.09.05
Not much. My house smells like a brewery as I have two wines brewing.

What about you?

There is a tree frog outside my window singing the oddest song. And it's not "Hello my baby, Hello my honey..." It was this long, low, drawn-out chirping. Strange.

So there's that, and I'm up doing freelance design stuff.

Well. I'm ready, at least. The question is. ARE YOU?
ready, that is.

I'm around, but probably not for long. Just having a spliff and a quick game of Thief: Deadly Shadows before curling up with a trashy crime novel.
 
 
Withiel: DALI'S ROTTWEILER
21:30 / 29.09.05
Hurray for Thief! Despite the fact that Thief2 never worked on my PC, no matter how hard I tried. Also, does anyone know things I can use instead of Lemsip? /dying from a cold blog

Me too, watching a reality on the wall programme about a bunch of guys living in a monastery. They don't seem to get voted off. But my eyes are drooping.

Try Wellness formula horse-tranq sized pills - they are packed full of niceness and do much better things for you than chemicals. Failing that, garlic capsules. Failing that - shitloads of Ibuprofen and whisk(e)y plus lemon, warmed.
 
 
Withiel: DALI'S ROTTWEILER
21:39 / 29.09.05
That sounds lovely, but doesn't ibuprofen+alcohol= painfuldeath? Or something along those lines?
 
 
Mon Oncle Ignatius
21:41 / 29.09.05
I seem to be alive still after 400mg of Ibuprofen and a couple of glasses of Jameson's yesterday following a tooth extraction and route canal earlier in the day. But, as they say, your mileage may vary. Maybe the doses would have to be higher?
 
 
Withiel: DALI'S ROTTWEILER
21:43 / 29.09.05
In which case, I will try with whatever horrible whiskey is actually left in the house, because otherwise I will Die of My Head Being Stuffed Full Of Malevolent Cotton Wool.
 
 
Eloi Tsabaoth
21:55 / 29.09.05
I'm sick and tired and depressed and feeling morally compromised, panicky, uncertain, guilty, and yes, perhaps a little nauseous.
Hooray!

Hello world, I'm fucked up on booze!

Only I'm nearly running out. As is traditional, this will be my only lateshift post today.

Ah, I'm off to bed. Goodnight.

22:27 / 29.09.05
Whats with the shitty mood Arriviste?
 
 
Eloi Tsabaoth
22:29 / 29.09.05
Ah, it's not a shitty mood. It's just a shitty night. I'm relatively upbeat. I just have deadlines and writer's block and my current medication just isn't cutting it. I feel hungover all the time and I haven't drunk for weeks.
 
 
Shrug
22:33 / 29.09.05
Well that's good at least .... kind of.
I'm moving tomorrow ahhhhhhhhh. I'm posting on Barbelith rather than doing other more negligible things like packing etc. I work better in a whirlwind panic in anycase.
 
 
Eloi Tsabaoth
22:37 / 29.09.05
Good luck with the move. If you find yourself unconsciously wandering back to your old house in your sleep, standing naked on the lawn making high-pitched keening noises, don't worry, it's all part of the process.
 
 
Shrug
22:46 / 29.09.05
I do actually sleepwalk. I am now very scared. Best ankle lock myself to the bed and double bolt the doors for the first few weeks then eh?
 
 
Shrug
22:48 / 29.09.05
Eh now to bed. Goodnight Arriviste and any other lateshifters lurking about. Sweet dreams.
 
 
Eloi Tsabaoth
22:49 / 29.09.05
I do that every night and I haven't sleepwalked (sleptwalk?) in years. Also, hide your passport and screw a metal pole that's wider than your door to your head. Horizontally, natch.
Sometimes I worry people might think I'm some kind of poorly programmed comedy chatbot. I tend to just post vaguely relevant 'gags' that don't necessarily relate to anything or anyone.
 
 
Eloi Tsabaoth
22:51 / 29.09.05
Oh, g'night.
So, looks like it's just me.
 
 
Eloi Tsabaoth
22:59 / 29.09.05
I wonder if I can bite my own ear?
 
 
The Return Of Rothkoid
23:18 / 29.09.05
Only if you've a history of having really fucking big spacers in 'em, I'd say.
