Because books.

I think I'm having yogurt and a banana. With the cats. One of whom is currently on My List.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What sort of lenses do you use?

I have Too Many Lenses! Lately, I've been mostly shooting with prime lenses; I have the 12mm, 17mm, 20mm, 25mm, and 45mm. This photo was shot with the 17mm (the equivalent of a 35mm lens on a 35mm camera), which is the worst lens, but is a convenient focal length for street shooting.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Woe. One of my neighbors complained about the bees and I have to get rid of them. I don't actually know how to do that, but I expect I will figure something out.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Yay, Scola! That's a great pic!

Ugh -- I am almost done with my second trial copy edit, and it took me WAY too long, but I am still having to look up a lot of niggly stuff in the house style guide. I figure I'll get faster the more I do. And this author had quite a few anachronisms, so I had to look them up for citations, even though I KNEW they were wrong.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Get some wasps--they kill bees.

I admit, if I knew who it was I would hold a grudge while denying all knowledge of anything msbelle might or might not do.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Oh, -t, no. Is there no hope of negotiation?

Wah, -t!

Whoo hoo, Scola!

Glad things are going well with the new job so far, msbelle.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Woe. One of my neighbors complained about the bees and I have to get rid of them.

Oh, no, bees! How can they make you get rid of them? Is it a HOA or something?
