peony, originally uploaded by heyoka.

Zot, old tottery tiny cat, is sick again. She is now utterly stuffed with antibiotics (and tuna) has stopped doing icky things, and is fast asleep on my feet. Bad: she's lost more weight and is very wobbly and scruffy. Good: no signs of dodgy thyroid things or anything else. Also good: being able to work from home so I can provide feet to sleep on and regular snacky treats.

Photos: summer project planning progresses in tiny hops and shuffles forward, and a few back. Much silence. Gah. But, I got to photograph the lovely Alice on Sunday (though have as yet failed to scan the negs. Sorry. Am rubbish.)

Big maybes: are cooking. Next meeting on this is on the 21st, to discuss what I need to do in order to do what I want to do. Hurrah! Am making lists. (Would be useful to talk to any of you academic types, as now would be a good time to try to talk me out of it, or further into it, as I ponder specifics rather than leaping around and ZOMG-ing at possibilities.)

Gosh. That was dull.

Who's up for a pint and/or photosession this weekend?

Me too, if you are not too bored of my face! (And Florence if you would like). Although I am booked up Friday night and Sunday night.

I'd like to see what we did on Sunday before a second round, please. Then I know what I need to do better!
But thanks.

dude, aren't you moving house?
I'm thinking there may well be some lurking in a pub garden on Saturday evening.

Well, yes. I could use a break from packing and shifting and unpacking at some point!
Saturday evening pub garden sounds promising...

Oooh, me. I'm home all day on Saturday. Lovely greenish light reflecting off the Wiltshire downs...

No?

Damn. Was worth a try anyway.

Sheeut. You don't know dull until you've lived in the suburbs with a kid.

I lived in the suburbs, for a while, when I was a kid. Does that count?
Actually, no. Never mind. Nowhere near the same.

I firmly believe that insufficient stimulation during childhood due to living in suburbia is responsible for a variety of ills, from consumerism to thuggery. On the other hand, college pals from NYC told tales of dodging the muggers, which as a parent I would find more than a little alarming.

Me? I'm out here so I don't drive my life away.

erk. Would you hate me if I moved this to 4pm? If that's a pain, we can do it another day instead. I need to go to the wilds of south lanarkshire and pick up scary photographic chemicals.

no worries - I was down in Northumberland and out of internets range. Another day is fine, I'm pretty hungover today so it's probably for the best! I'm away next weekend but weekend after?

Great shot. =)

did you use a Hassy on that one?

thanks!

Nope, it's the ancient and beloved Rolleiflex (with one of the close-up attachments on it, for this.) I keep getting those dangerous hankerings for Hassies--those "hmm hmm hmmm just looking" hours on ebay--and then reminding myself that actually this camera is pretty much awesome and I love it and also I have no money spare. It's the whole terrible nonsense of "if I but had camera X" which I usually manage to squish before spending. Helps that I'm a cheapskate.
