clickies
Today's clickies are brought to you by nightdog_barks (whose birdwatching posts always remind me of the best parts of my birthfamily), dolphingirl (who frequently gets the dolphin posts that i miss, for which I'm very grateful), machineplay (still best girlfriend ever!) and gizmometer (the best internet partner in crime a girl could hope for).
octopus opens valve, floods Santa Monica aquarium one for the cephalopods.
groups urge COA to protect at risk chinese white dolphins.
multi-lingual translations of 'my hovercraft is full of eels'
seriously amazing set of photographs. there are not enough words to describe how amazing these are. just go look. totally worksafe.
remnants of ancient oaks found in bogs all over the UK.
ice oceans 'are not poles apart' at least 235 species live in both polar oceans.
Also! new Catherynne Valente novel: a MUST READ. she makes me feel like a hack. so, so good. (all of her books are good - I really adored 'the orphan's tales' set - but this one ... *incoherent flail*
today: pain with a side of pain. any trip out has been sidelined at the moment at least: that said,the current dose of celebrex is helping. not sure if i want to go to pike place today or not. forgot my celebrex last night: related? not sure, given i also slept horribly.
trying to find garantour for stupid Canadian passport regulation. so, so goddamn stupid. maybe machineplay can do it with some mail and webcam trickery, i'm thinking. i love her enough to go through paperwork for her.
you know, it is nice out, and i'm going to be in pain either way. i can grab some pastry from the bakery for brunch. i haven't been to pike place in ages, and this is going to be so much easier with the wheelchair. it can be a short-to-medium trip; i have to run the battery down more before i can charge it; i have a percocet to take if the pain gets really bad (i think i'll take it now).
welcome to the end of my thought process! i'm going out for a while.
