long day.

book covers done. not yet approved… so i guess i couldn’t do it in an hour but i did manage to knock up two options.  now i have to wait around and see what they really want.  they’ll probably want something completely different.

the Brit thinks he has solutions to my walking/clumsiness problems. this morning,  as i walked into a doorway,  the Brit laughed at me and looked at me like i was one of those special needs kids they hold telethons for.  a bit later,  i walked upstairs (tripped on a step on my way) and sat down to have my coffee. 
Brit:  You should wear knee pads and a helmet so you don’t kill yourself climbing up those stairs
Me: very funny.
Brit:  why is your left eye all red
Me:  because i poked it with my finger
Brit:  i’m going to get you little baby mitts for your hands so you can’t hurt yourself.  Where’d you get that bruise from?
Me:  i walked into the door handle. 
Brit:  maybe there’s a magic serum you can drink that’ll make you grow cat whiskers.  maybe they’ll help you balance yourself and you won’t walk into things.  you can wear a little catsuit too. 
Me:  it’d look really good with knee pads, helmet and mittens.
Brit: but at least you’d be safe! 

he’s such a help isn’t he?  if it were up to him,  i’d look like a mutant.
