34/365 # British summertime

. . . Bollocks.

 

The camera batteries went kaput right in the middle of shooting tonight, and when I put the spare set in I realised I'd forgotten to recharge them. So I had to resort to using the camera on my phone and ended up with this shot, which is the best I could come up with before the battery in my phone went kaput too.

 

And I had a really cool idea lined up for tonight too. Pants.

 

Ah well, at least this shot is a fair indicator of my day today - it's been pissing it down. Like really pissing it down.

 

Work was manic today, I felt like I was being pulled in all directions at once - and Friday seems to be deadline day for everything! To add to this, I was twenty minutes from leaving for the day when a gang of managers wandered in and spent the next fourty minutes poring over a spreadsheet I'd created and asking tricky questions!

 

I'm not complaining of course, it's nice to be busy and in demand, and I must point out that the managers in question are all very cool people who I really like - no I'm not kidding, they really are dudes! They know their stuff, they look after their staff and they treat everyone with equal respect, which is a trait you're not always lucky enough to get in a manager.

 

Family Guy's on now so I'm going to go watch it and have some highly inappropriate laughs.

 

Today's music: the second half of White Pony and the first half of Saturday Night Wrist, both by the Deftones and De Stijl by The White Stripes. Well, a bit of it, then the management descended upon me and it would've been rude to carry on listening to it . . .

 

Enjoy the summery weather!
