Been a while since I was last here, so just giving some updates.

Got myself a second-hand Canon Powershot S3IS last week.

Some very minor defects but it doesn't bother me at all--this is my first EVF after all, so I guess my gripes about it will come waaay later when I get to know it better.

On work-related stuff...

I managed to make actual spokes on the superduperhuge bicycle wheel for the project (never thought it was possible) so I'm very happy with that.

Clients are much more forgiving and attentive to our needs now, so again, less headaches and more excitement down the road as we approach the downhill portion of wrapping up this project.

Also finished this French Lop rabbit for someone's own private animal collection, part of a 6-animal collection and my coworker Fab did the other animals, using his own awesome techniques that I still have yet to learn.

Am totally enjoying The Cure's new album 4:13 Dream. It's basically a hodge-podge of Cure styles ranging from the early "Three Imaginary Boys" days, and the playfulness of the later "Wish" and "Wild Mood Swings" era. Although I didn't like their self-titled album released back in 2004, this one is waaaay different.
