My attempt at macro phone photography, featuring my dad's attempt at a pizza oven from many years ago, made from a bathtub he found in hard rubbish.

I'm starting to think I'll remove my pic and change my name to Simon when I'm applying for positions in bands.

At verity I didst finish listening to the audio book of The Night Land and it was weird in a good way.

The strange language, not modern but not quite old fashioned either makes it feel weird. He also evokes very good mental imagery of the future world, the landscape , the animals that live there and the future society. The sex, apparently in the future there is no religion and no shame .

Written as a history from the point of view of the main character there is no dialogue.

So strange. I give it 4 hobbits there and a couple of those tall men and a few of the ugly dangerous men and some of those vicious huge dogs and a giant sluggish monster and a volcano or two and vast desolate rock plains and a bit of a swamp too and a heroes welcome back.

Dinner tonight was an unmitigated disaster.

and we laughedโ€ฆ

30/50 - missed the bagpipes and the bubble wrap and I didn't ought to have. Too early in the morning and/or not enough coffee. Me bad.

[โ€“] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 points 8 months ago

I also should have waited for more coffee. 25/50 I did get the bagpipes right, but not the bubble wrap.

[โ€“] Eagle@aussie.zone 2 points 8 months ago

40, I've impressed myself with some wild guesses.

[โ€“] Llabyrinthine@aussie.zone 2 points 8 months ago

20 with 2 against my better guesses.

(Meaning it would have been 30 if Iโ€™d gone with my instincts, but I aim low. Haha.)

Okay:

  • Washed
  • Chicken sandwich obtained
  • Vanilla flan smashed
  • Stupidly priced cookies for later

Now just waiting for the rain to pass to see whether I want to be out and about on two wheels. Perfect weather for the one the runs insanely hot. It would be nice to not to straddle 105ยฐ.

Even though I should be sorting this crapshow I have created. I just have such an aversion to it, that it is pretty my reflective of my state of mindโ€ฆ Yep, hot mess.

But also so tempting to just lay in bed. This is when I love the rain.

I've trained the sparrow to land on my shoulder or arm now. ๐Ÿ™‚

The sun has come out for a visit, I think it is a good time to take Mr Woof out for a stroll around the neighbourhood.
