~HouseOfGimp has started a donation pool!

I'm dying for a new dA hoodie. I'm a merch whore. What can I say.
Postage to Australia is steep.
I'm on indefinite sick leave.
Melbourne is freezing.

Like my art? Donate some points so I can get a nice new hoodie, stay warm, and keep producing some art. :P

:heart:

Katie Katzenjammer
Australia
My name is Katherine, but I prefer Katie.
I'm a mother of one, daughter of two, sister of three. Just for the numerology nuts out there.
I take entirely too many photos, usually of my darling son, and lately, sketch mannequins.
Inspiration tends to whack me in the face at 3am, which really sucks.
All around arts geek. AND PROUD OF IT.
May have a slight addiction to facebook. (Add me if you like, just say it's <insert your dA username> otherwise I won't accept. My email address is floating around here somewhere.)
I live. I laugh. I love.
AND long hot showers make me a very happy woman.

Current Residence: In a shoebox.
deviantWEAR sizing preference: Whatever fits.
Favourite genre of music: Rock/Heavy Rock/Alternative.
Operating System: Running Vista. Want to be running SuSE. Because I'm cooler than you. :P
MP3 player of choice: One that works.
Shell of choice: Ones on the beach are nice.
Wallpaper of choice: Wallpaper is sooo 1960s. I like paint on my walls, thankyouverymuch.
Skin of choice: Not sunburnt.
Personal Quote: I find perfection in imperfections.
Interests

Plodding along in chaos as usual.

  • Mood: Tired
Right-o.  Thought I'd swing by, say HEY, and let you know that I'm still alive.  Times have been busy of late.

Getting everything finalised for opening the stuio with my friend on the 20th which is very exciting.  You can have a look at our facebook page if you like [link] .  There's lots of pretty pictures.  

I have a CRAZY few weeks coming up.
On photojournalist duty with Dallas Green (City And Colour, Alexisonfire) this Wednesday and Thursday - now, this man is my musical idol.  I am heavily influenced by his music when I am writing my own.  And I am quite smitten with the man.  I was happy enough to be doing photos, but I am also interviewing him.  Wish me luck.  Hopefully I don't do anything inappropriate.  I've also got access all areas, so I will be taking a lot of photos from the side and back of the stage, which is actually where I get my best photos, because I capture the 'human' moments rather than the 'God' moments.  AAAAAAAAND, he's probably coming into the studio to do a little shoot to help us out because I'm doing so much work with him, and haven't asked payment (I'll be paid from media outlets when I distribute).  Again, wish me luck and hope I don't do anything inappropriate.
It's my 25th on Saturday.  :iconlawooplz:  I'm actually really excited, unlike all my friends who turned 25 last year.  I'm also on photo duty at a gig that night for one of my local bands.  :D
Wednesday next week, working with Kimbra.
Friday next week, working with Josh Pyke.
Saturday next week, MY PARTY - with a rockabilly theme, and live music provided by some of the local bands I work with (and myself, too)...  Mandatory dress up.  It will be awesome.
Sunday next week, mothers' day here in Aus, plus my business partner and I are doing a location shoot.
Then on the following weekend I'm on the road with The Butterfly Effect for three shows on their final tour before their vocalist leaves.

ALL WHILE BEING ON MOTHER DUTY AND STILL NEEDING TO DO EVERYTHING ELSE AS NORM.

Speaking of...  It's 5am, and I need to be up in two hours for the school routine.  Joyous.

Make your life what you want. You only get one shot; might as well enjoy it!

Every minute you spend upset is 60 seconds' happiness you'll never get back

I'm DID & proud!
Alters are people too.

It wasn't the greatest day... But I have my big shindig 1950s themed party this weekend to look forward to and make up for it. :) :excited:

The little man is being cute and tiring, as always. Hahah. Busy with school, and growing up WAY too fast.

Awww, thanks so much for asking. He's MUUUUUCH better now. Still gets a bit of a chesty cough if he runs too much, but that's about it now. He had two weeks off school, then returned for a week of half days, then back on full days for a bit. Now he's on school holiays for Easter.
The photo of him I uploaded a few days ago of him shows he's all better. :P
