...is anyone out there? Do you all wish you were as bored as I am, again? I know, I'm moaning on...

Can I have a quick grump about people who charge everything to expenses, just because they can? Buy your own sodding coffee! We all do it! Take responsibility! No? No grumping? Okay, sorry, won't do that. *g*

Erm...

Bugger it. I shall do a picspam. I've never done picspam before. Well, not really seriously...


Because the lads are always best lying together on a mattress. And because there's something about the way their hips line up in this pic, and their trousers are creased just so, and... *g*


Oh wow - these stallions are called Bodie and Doyle! They're in the Czech police! They work in Prague! How cool is that? And there's lots more pics of them in their gallery, for horse-y people. *g*

Heee! Via Flickr (or however many letters it's missing in whatever places)


Oooh - pretty...

A sea of clouds laps at rugged moutain peaks of the French Pyrenees in this serene view from Pic du Midi Observatory. The time exposure was recorded on June 4, with the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpius shining in the starry night. At the top right lies a faint, but colourful moondog or paraselene. Analogous to a sundog or parhelion, the paraselene is produced by moonlight shining through thin, hexagonal-shaped ice crystals in high cirrus clouds. As determined by the ice crystal geometry, a bright gibbous Moon illuminates the scene from beyond the picture's right edge, 22 degrees from the lovely paraselene.

Ooh er missus... bit scary...


Heee! The caption on this one was "Astronaut's Head Upgraded During SpaceWalk"... *g*


Ooh - What would happen if you travelled through an aurora?


Oh - been there, been there! Well, not in that truck, probably under that aurora, but I drove back from the Arctic once overnight with some friends, who were towing a horse-trailer, and we took all night about it in two cars, and it looked just like that!


A real ladder of swords!

And finally (it's finally lunchtime!) - I hope you've all seen this pic from Lorraine Brevig, of Don DeMarco, cos how gorgeous is that!

Right. Shall go and read David Baldacci. He's really bad at writing, in so, so many ways - it's all Hollywood trash rather than anything real... Is someone wanting to be made into a movie, by any chance?

Wasn't feeling bored and restless before lunchtime, was actually working for at change (okay, having little peeps at 'Voice-over' *g*), but have lost concentration now, and the sun is shining again, at last! So yay for interesting pics.

Not at all a horsey person, but Bodie and Doyle the police horses are so cool - those Czechs have taste.

Hurrah! There is someone else out there! I was beginning to think that all of lj was deserted except for little old me... *g*

I shouldn't be bored really, cos my boss is away this arvo, and I've only actually got another hour to go now - I started early so I could get off early, cos [livejournal.com profile] greengerbil is heading this way... And I have writing I could do, and I did my Reading Room rec (except everyone likes it so far, so not much discussion there... *g* I should have gone for Velvet Underground!)

Those Czechs do have taste, don't they... *g* Speaking of which, have you seen [livejournal.com profile] diegina's Bob and Bobek vid? It's seriously cute... (Hopefully I've linked to the one with the subtitles in English - I don't dare check cos I'm at work!)
