Up and down

[lnr]

I wonder how easy it is to draw an ascii art sine wave? I could include a gif but I tend to mostly think of this as a etxt medium, even though it isn't really. Anyway, that's my mood that is. Hot rock bottom again a bit after my earlier post and spent the afternoon crawling back up towards a very pleasant evening at Becky's. Don't even want to think about what the last two days have done to my diet: yesterday was deliberate, today was desperation. Still, I've enjoyed it.

Hope to keep on the up tomorrow with some painting of all things, having bought emulsion and paint trays and rollers and a dust sheet today we aim to have a go at the walls and ceiling in the bedroom tomorrow. Should be a giggle anyway, if we're not too hungover.

Big thanks to rjk for being patient and doing his best to keep me happy: it's a hard job at the moment, and he's not perfect at it, but he does a far better job than I feel I deserve sometimes.

I'd normally go with something like:

  __          __          __
 /  \        /  \        /  \
/    \      /    \      /    \      
      \    /      \    /      \    /
       \__/        \__/        \__/

As the closest approximation you're going to get in ASCII... although my normal trick is to draw the item in xfig and then use netpbm filters to create ASCII (i.e. get the image into a PBM format and then use pbmtoascii).

Have fun painting; I would offer to help but painting is one of the things I'm not very good at; I leave the painting and decorating (especially the chosing of colours :) to ejde for good reason.

I'd be happy to help out with things like plumbing et al tho - AFAIR you mentioned something a while ago at some pipework re-arrangements you wanted doing ?

*HUGS* for the mood swing stuff - I've been going through some unpleasent mood swings over the last couple of days (its one of the reasons I've not updated my LJ since Wednesday) as well. Must be something in the air ATM :(
