Catpaw – diary of an angry cat

Slightly grumpy with an aversion to noise.

A quick tweet before I go

November 4th, 2009 · 2 Comments

I don’t have a lot of time today so this will be a fast post. Part of my rush is my itouch seems to be channelling dead people. I was a bit startled yesterday when I was getting into an elevator to see a customer and, when I checked their suite number, up popped an address from 6 years ago. 6 years and 2 addresses ago. I scrolled through the address book and found 3 people I had removed because, well, they died. Couldn’t find some of my newer customers either. Now I have no idea where this address book from the nether world popped up from but it’s going to take a bit of time to fix it. The truly odd thing is the address book that has replaced my current one was 2 whole computers ago. Somehow I managed to move a copy over to my new computer without knowing it.
Hmmm… who knew Itouch had an App for contacting the dead.

And now the tweet:

From Catpaw’s Art work – birds
Rather striking little Flycatcher, isn’t he. I’ve been working on sketching leaves this week. On Sunday I went out and collected a load of them and then ironed them in wax-paper. I felt like I was 6 years old again! Cheap ass wax-paper company sure skimped on the wax though. Most of the leaves are extremely dry already because there was so little wax on the paper. So I’ve thrown some of the best leaves into a book to keep them.

Leaves are a lot harder to draw than you would think. You just know you are likely going to see a lot of leaves in the next few weeks as I practice getting them right.

Stumble it!

    hmmm…. It was a bit unnerving and altogether weird. I think the problem is corrected. Now I have to pare out all the duplicates.
