[31 Mar 2009|08:29am] Haje, 2009, originally uploaded by heyoka. I finally developed a stack of rolls of film. Here's Sharq. It's a most nerve-wracking experience to photograph another photographer. Spent all of Saturday at a photography conference, and had a glorious time. I am all enthused with possibilities. The springtime bout of insomnia is back. I'm about a night and half down on sleep since Friday night, and look like someone has been gouging hollows under my eyes. Not good. Can't get to sleep, can't stay asleep. Dreaming is weird, tweety birds are tweety very early. Took the morning off yesterday to try to get some kip, but was repeatedly woken up by doorbells and phones. Gah. It will pass. But, every year I seem to get a bout of this. Thanks for title suggestions on the ambros. Am taking it back into my lair to ponder some more. waterlog: 2.5k last week, and no swimming at the weekend because of being Too Damn Busy, so, 25.5k left to go. I need to get a move on. 3 comments|post comment

five pounds of pest [31 Mar 2009|07:58pm] the pirate and his parrot, originally uploaded by heyoka. Tomorrow is Zot's official birthday--we don't know her exact birthday, what with her being a foundling and all, but april the first is a remarkably good fit and close enough. Tiny, daft, and utterly fearless little beast, now she's turning 18. I'd take her to the pub, but it tends to be full of dee-oh-gees. She'd love it, but she's worryingly snack-sized. I might make fishcakes, instead. ETA: zot's response to being informed of international birthday wishes: "mrr-rr-RR?" and a truly stinktastic salmon-scented yawn. 14 comments|post comment
