Sunshine and Flowers
I don't normally watch Top Gear (cars = not interested. Well, I liked KITT, but then I'm biased, in that respect...), but tonight I've changed the habit of a lifetime and watched a bit - I mean, they were trying to jump a stretch-something (could have been a humvee, or something?) over a row of caravans and a wedding party. :P
I have sunburned my shoulders. :( They are all ouchsome, so I'm sitting here with cold wet flannels on them, to try and take a bit of heat out of them. *sadness* If I were a sun-worshipper, I could understand it, but the thing is - I hate hot weather! It's been 31C here today (although it's cooled down, lately) and I spent all my time in the garden, hopping from one shade-patch to the next, covered in sunblock. BAH. The flannels are nice, though - because they're cold and wet, they're cooling the rest of me down too. And it was too hot to play with my camera, either, everything looked burned-out and nasty. Give me rain anyday. :(
And what IS it with robots and plants?
...at least, around me. :P
...maybe it's just a passionflower. MUAHAHA. *snickers*
On a slightly more serious note, I'm trying to work a related theme into a story - that is, giant marauding vines causing problems. That should be fun! And it means I get big (well, about two-foot legspan, so not THAT big) angry killer alien-spiders, too. Yay!
Normal service may now resume.
