Allegedly creative

It’s been a busy week this week, so I have little to post online showing my AWESOME CREATIVITY. Anyways, firstly, here’s the podcast that I contributed to. I’m up first to allow proper comedy callback and everything:

I had an idea for something to record for next week’s podcast, but I promptly forgot what it was, so there probably won’t be anything from me next week, but hopefully I’ll have other ideas one day.

Anyways, my proper ‘creative thing’ involved the art of ‘drawing’. Well, actually it’s tracing (and not in the Chasing Amy “you’re just a tracer” sense, just actualy tracing). We’ve recently had a ’social media’ policy come in at work, which includes a rather sensible “Please don’t associate yourself with $company online unless it’s for specific work reasons”. Whle I’m taking a deliberately pedantic take on this, I thought I better sort myself out a new internet avatar, as my old one has me wearing a work hat. So, combine the old photo, a clear plastic sheet, a fat permanent marker and my relative inability to draw, and what do you get?

It’ll do for now.

I like that - I noticed the new icon before I read the post, and it's definitely recognisable as you.

Surely Peter Jackson?

These days I look more like Peter Jackson in a fat suit.
And that's his fault, not my love of pies.
