This is my favourite flower in the whole world.
It's a yellow/white snap dragon, and it grows out of a crack in the stones at the Albert Dock. Even if it served no other purpose in the world than to be a completely random, utterly beautiful example of nature going "hi, I'm still here, screw you", I would love it.
The move into our flat is going well so far, and I'm surviving without broadband access at home (thank goodness I at least work for an Internet provider so I can browse a bit during the day), and what's really funny is that even though it's not a huge decrease in the amount of broadband I use day to day, it's enough to take a little step back and look at what I do online, and look at the people I talk to.
And God, I love you guys. I might not be doing a huge amount with my life but I'm happy with it for the most part and I owe an awful, awful lot of that to you all. Whether I talk to you a lot or barely at all, whether we're fandom-only or real life friends, I love you. I love you when you're happy, when you're sad, when you're furious, when you're amused. When I've argued with one or two of you I might not like you for a little while afterwards but that's the fun of diverse opinions and love pretty much always wins out in the end.
You are an amazing, amazing group of people, and I'm stunned to think about how lucky I am to know you all. Every last one of you.
