When encountering strange, beautiful women who express an interest in you out of nowhere, you should be suspicious.

At the very least, you should be more suspicious than _this_ guy.

Got myself a beauty this afternoon from our big local used book store.

I think this may rock my world. And my artwork. We'll see.

As someone fifteen generations removed from Scotland, it may be nice to dip my toes back into it a bit. I wonder what magic I can paint...
