While I wasn't looking, my Flickr site passed 25,000 views. 25,006 to be precise, at last login. And by an extraordinary coincidence, it's my Flickr "birthday" today. I uploaded my first photo on July 10, 2005. Here's what's on my homepage right now:

Chinatown Vignette

For those who know me in RL, this was taken on the day I had lunch with the grrrlz at M'Ole and we walked through Chinatown. I'm still uploading a few shots from that day.


(and if anyone saw this post the first time, when I referred to 25,000 as a quarter of a million - thank you for being kind enough not to point out that me brain iz ded)

I had lunch today with [livejournal.com profile] lidocafe and her charming daughter, and it was good :) Then we wandered over to visit [livejournal.com profile] superfoo and [livejournal.com profile] marri at their place of employment and hung around making a nuisance of ourselves and bought some yummy cleansing things. Then we bought ice-cream. Then we wandered down to the harbour and went shopping in a silly things shop for birthday presents and I bought the most charming wind-up penguin that I'm going to use in my bath. Oh, and I also purchased morel mushrooms and salad greens and spinach and baby zucchini from the produce market in Bastion Square. It was all extremely pleasant.

The only slight cloud on the horizon now is that I came home to discover that Robinson has a swelling on his lower jaw. It doesn't seem to hurt him, but it obviously worries him a bit. The vets took it more seriously than I did and made an appointment for us this evening - I'm taking him over there shortly. I doubt that it's anything too serious - he may have been stung by a bee. No doubt I shall empty my bank account once more though (good thing it's payday tomorrow).

He has an abscess. At least that's what they think, and we will assume so unless it doesn't get better or gets worse or something. He was a model of patient goodness at the vet while she poked around in a place that must have been sore. He had his beard slightly shaved, a hole poked in to drain and was sent home with antibiotics. The bank was not broken, and I am relieved. Hopefully he will be feeling better soon. Poor boy; it must have been uncomfortable.
