As a person who occasionally wears ties, and always feels choked by them, the idea of tie dying has occurred to me before, in a less pleasant way. :-P

ooooh noooo malign...that's not nice... how about you just don't wear ties anymore and we'll make you a nice cape instead...?

Oh yes, my work would go really well if I showed up in a cape, regardless of the color. ;-)

well, at least you'll be unique!!!

what's your favourite colour?

I'm already unique, sweety. :-)

Just in a different way.

I'm fond of dark reds, maroons, what I think of as wine color.

I know you're already unique, i didn't mean it like that..!!! ok, you can have a wine coloured cape!!!

I knew you didn't mean it that way, that's why I smiled.

But it's true; looking at me, I don't stand out in any way, and that's a conscious choice. But I don't have to let that affect how I feel about myself, that I'm unique on the inside. So I was telling me as much as you. ;-)

If it was black on the outside and red on the inside, I could be a vampire. Plus then, I'd be irresistable. Instead of just barely resistable, like I am now. :-P

well, i don't reallly stand out either, i don't think. ok, i'll be a flying dogg and you can be a vampire!!!! haha and then we'll both be irresistable..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guys are so funny!!! Sorry I'm missing ye all, I have company until later tomorrow, so I'll have to catch up with you then.......who's got their costume ready?

How's our brave doggie this evening?

not so brave...but very sleepy..!! how are you today?

hi blossom! how was work?

i had the worse day in work EVER. absolutely awful...

Okay, but did you do anything cowardly?

I bet not. So you still get to be brave. Just tired.

so you're a big artful tired brave doggy

No wonder you're tired, hauling all those adjectives around ...

no but i did nothing brave either:(

i think my time as a doggie has come to an end....i'm just a regular human now:(

But these are the "dog days of summer"!

Okay, how about telling us about work?

it was torture:( the day went on forever.... every customer was rude......i got put on tills for 5 hours when everyone else got the normal 2 hours:(

But it's over now, and you're still sad about it!

Now is the time you get to be happy. Why waste it on that mess? What can you make tonight? Are you working on your costume? -- 'finding' was asking, earlier.

i can't stop feeling sad. i know it's a waste. I slept for 2 hours when I came home and i still feel sad. although i suppose there's nothing to feel happy about here anyway. I don't think i'm dressing up anymore.

You're going to look funny going to work with no clothes on. :-P

Well, if you can't just stop feeling sad, maybe you can do something you like anyway. Maybe that will help you feel less sad.

i have no work tomorrow. well, i'm already in bed... i don't want to socialise with my family anyway..

you don't have to socialize with your family, do something by yourself, like maybe your art. you know your family won't make you happy, but maybe you would feel better if you did something

maybe i'll watch a dvd later..but no art..
