Life at the moment is complicated...

I'm working 2 jobs -- on paid and one unpaid -- and I am sinking into wanting to work till I drop, which isn't really a good thing, although unsurprising considering some stuff that's happening at the moment. *shrug*

I got a tattoo on the 5th. Yeeea, didn't go down too well with the family but hey, I needed it. Now I'm waiting for the damn thing to stop being so itchy and to HEAL ALREADY. Silly thing.

'sides that nothing new to report from Val-land.

Sadly I'm not getting as good a turnout as I wanted to... oh well...
A quick note to all those who entered:
The prizes are still the same, however if you happen to be the only one who entered a specific category you can't win the prize by default... I'm a little too fuzzy at the moment (it being 4am and all) but I will think of a solution to this... Contest is still open till the 24th (Christmas Eve) so get entering if you haven't already!!

-+- Judges are and myself.
-+- You may enter one photo only
-+- Contest closes December 24th

Happy snapping!
