It is not a fat frog-man in a monks frock seen from the back pointing at another frog-man with his right stubby arm?

Mein Gott! That's exactly what it is! For adding another dimension to my picture - both figuratively and, particular as far as the nose is concerned, literally - I thank you.

i like this. looks like a dinosaur. nice colour combo.

Lunar Brogue said...

Ta nora. I'm experimenting with restricted palettes at the moment.

(Which sounds like I'm subjecting myself to a series of DIY orthodontic adjustments - e.g. to help me consume soggy tiramisu with more poise, lightness of spirit and ... I don't know ... je ne sais quoi?, at a more dignified and medically advisable pace and with greater mindfulness of flavour and texture as opposed to bulk and brandy. Or to ensure that, despite an acquired tendency to wolf, I properly masticate my mung beans. But you know what I mean.)

cool. i'm currently watching a soulful chic flick and crying my eyes out. haha.

where do you choose your colours?

i might be hired as a full time colour picker for two-seasons ahead pallete for a design house. cool eh.

what phd are you doing? are you crazy?

Lunar Brogue said...

nora, I will not hesitate: yes, most definitely, I am crazy.

This is a lifestyle choice based on two simple convictions: 1. insanity is cool; and 2. something else is something else (and vice versa).

With respect to postgraduate study, I'm currently researching intertextual connections between The Road Runner and Waiting for Godot.

(But seriously: maths.)

Nora said...

insanity? cool?!

i've been meeting a lot of crazy people recently. some with mental health problems, others i'm not sure. it makes me fear craziness. i come closer to believing that everyone gets madder as days go by. and wonder if it's just what life does to people. i wonder what causes madness, and whether it is a symptom of life? trauma? sin? brokenness?

it scares me.

sanity is cooler. (as it seems rarer)

Apologies nora, I was being facetious.
