All right, dinner has been eaten, so I'll try to type up some of what I've written - spread out over three notebooks, isn't that fun? I wonder if I can piece it all together again.

Sahi · 2010-08-26 00:42:58

Have fun with that puzzle!

*hellos the Mint*

Time to get ready to go to work.

There's some weird fishees. One that lives near here is the "Sea Robin." It has what looks like feet! It uses those feet to anchor itself into the sand when the tides change, so it doesn't get tumbled over and over. It looks like it was designed by Hieronymus Bosch.

Sahi · 2010-08-26 08:29:12

*goes off to hunt pictures of said fishee*

Sahi · 2010-08-26 08:30:37

Huh, there is apparently also a Nike shoe called sea robin. Otherwise I don't know why it would show up amongst the images of fishes.

Sahi · 2010-08-26 08:32:17

Oh, completely forgot: Hiya Em!

Em · 2010-08-26 09:19:37

Hiya, Sahi! How goes? The photos of the Sea Robin don't do it justice. We sat there for the longest time, just staring at this fish. It really looked like something some sci-fi special effects person cooked up in his basement!

I have another one of those weird blisters I've had a couple of times over the last few years. I had the theory they're caused by phototoxic plants, but that theory just got destroyed, because that spot (on my ankle) didn't get exposed to sunlight all day.

Magpie · 2010-08-26 10:41:36

Purple potatoes and white carrots for dinner. Brotherbeastie says, he "can't eat anything purple. That's no food!"

Em · 2010-08-26 11:35:43

White carrots. Shades of Bunnicula!

BTW, I agree with Brother - food should NOT be purple.

Magpie · 2010-08-26 11:46:15

Pah. Food should be all sorts of colours. ;)
One of the many reasons I want a garden again. Everyone has orange carrots, yellow potatoes and red tomatoes. So boring.

To us people with food issues, food should be what we expect it to look like. Otherwise, we won't eat it.

Magpie · 2010-08-26 13:06:12

I understand that.

Magpie · 2010-08-26 14:24:47

All right, no more excuses. I finished the blog post I wanted to write, and got prepared everything I need to take to the post office tomorrow - time to go to bed.

Em · 2010-08-26 14:54:56

Good night, Magpie. Dream well!

Almost time to leave.

Hi Mint

Morning here.Got up to early if you ask me. Didnt manage to transform from sleepy/grumpy mode to "awake" status in the past 2 hours.
Mooooaar coffee ! I´m so not a morning person.
Gray& rainy day. I´m hoping for a dry and not windy evening.
I really want to see the Illumination in the park and so far I didnt go beacuse it was either raining or the wind blowing to much. I mean it doesnt have to be warm but I dont want to get soaked or blown away.

Sahi · 2010-08-27 00:07:49

*sends all the bits of non-rainy sky over to Lunar*

Even though I'll have to go grocery shopping in the rain! I don't know what that Illumination is, but it sounds a lot worthier of dryness than grocery shopping. Especially as I'll be going to Australia tomorrow. :)

Lunar · 2010-08-27 00:16:19

They have special light installations (electric and candles) in the park. Thats what they call Illumination.
I heard that its very very nice but so far the damn weather didnt want me to go.
Austrailia tomorrow hu? I hope you´ll have a save, calm flight and tons of fun down under.
Huggle all smarchers for me :-)

Sahi · 2010-08-27 00:31:32

Thanks, will do!

Em · 2010-08-27 07:06:46

Rainy morning here. Very squishy.

Sahi · 2010-08-27 07:16:15

Our morning here was rainy too. But now it's dry again.

sisterdew · 2010-08-27 08:37:06

the rain is here now. And thank dog for that!

*wavies*

Sahi · 2010-08-27 09:08:23

Gah, I'm starting to get seriously nervous now... I'm just so good at forgetting stuff.

Lists. Make lists. And then make more lists.

I'm a list-aholic. I live by my lists.
