Skating

Had fun skating with Nefarious and her friend, but I think tomorrow we’ll go on our own so we can go a lot faster. Her friend was just learning, so I think Nefarious felt a little neglected because I had to focus most of my attention on keeping her friend going and growing.

They got to watch the Zamboni before we left…

PS. Check out yesterday’s doodle.

Other than that, I had a nice coffee with an old friend, then got a phone call from another old friend about a new body modification TV show that I might take some involvement with, and finally I bumped into another long-time-no-see friend across the street where he was visiting someone before moving out to Victoria. The mostly unexpected trifecta of friends or something.

In the progression of my leg, I noticed the latest disgusting step last night and confirmed it again today… The skin has become like “plasticine”, and can be deformed as such. If I press on it with my finger, it sinks in and just stays there as a depression about 1/4″ deep. Totally revolting. There’s a real sense of nausea and “empty disgust” associated with a lot of what’s going on.

And a quick update on that “A Galvanized Corpse” painting that I knocked out… As you can see I changed the sky and a few other things. Other people seem to like this one more than I do. Anyway, I’m having trouble keeping my eyes open… Time to watch The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Heroes, drink a jug of Tang, and crash out for the day.

    I think I enjoy the paintings of cheery (reptiles?) (amphibians?) the most.

    You might already know this but it sounds like you’ve got a case of pitting edema. That’s the pits. (Feel free to groan at the bad pun, it’s ok) Feel better Shannon.

    i have a friend who broke his back and is now paralyzed in his legs, and is in a wheel chair, who has the same “plasticine” thing in his feet. i saw it for the first time today. apparently for him it has to do with there not being enough blood flow because of the lack of use in them. very weird to see.

Wow Shannon, that's really annoying! What is it, 1997 on Geocities? Retroweb is NOT cool!
