We are having a heat wave! YAY! (not)
Since the 17th, the daily temps have been above 25°C, and my living room is currently 23° and it's not even dinner time! It's supposed to clear Friday/Saturday, but I hope it doesn't rain so much that town floods. Just enough to cool the air and make it less humid would be nice.
(Also it made me ill and I woke up drenched in sweat last night after only being asleep for two hours, so that was fun as well!)

Yesterday, I bought some Stabilo fineliners that I absolutely do not need, but they are in pastel colours! And I got £2 off the set of six, by pure coincidence! I've had the matching set of Pen 68s for a few years now, so it's nice to have the fineliners to go with it.
(I didn't get them from Cult Pens, btw, so please don't click that link expecting to get money off; that's just so you know what I'm talking about. Although, postage excepted, that's the cheapest price I've seen them for).
I also got a hoodie with skelly bones on it from work, so I am EXTREMELY happy about that! Especially since I can wear it at Hallowe'en without having to put extra layers underneath my skelly t-shirt, as I have had to do for the last two years. No promises, but I will try to upload a picture of it somewhere once I've given it a wash, because it's awesome, and y'all should see it!

Art youtubers got me super inspired again! Not that I did a lot last time, but the fact that I even felt the inspiration was nice. And not even the same youtuber, which is good. But, like the first person, is someone that is working on a webcomic/comics in general, rather than most of the people I watch on there. I need to find more people like that, as that is Very Much My Jam, though I wouldn't blame you if you didn't know this, because it's not something I've talked about a lot in the past several years.
So hopefully I will get some more noodling done from being inspired by them!
