What to expect? We had no idea when we booked our trip to Myanmar. But, what we were met by was a country full of warmth, incredible people, easy transit, and endless beauty.
These photos highlight my visit to Myanmar with my brother and aspire to capture and share some of that beauty with you.

. . . total subservience, you peon. Turn on the faucet when I desire, pet me when I want to be pet, and provide me with a lap when I want a lap. Also, feed me, lots and often!

Madame Tussauds....we just walked into this place not expecting much but it was phenomenal...loved it.
I keep telling people I'm on a self destructive stage. I don't know why I do that. Perhaps I'm expecting someone to step in and help me out of this mire without making me sound like the one who needs psychiatric help. Maybe I say it because I know that I'm in some sort of mental predicament and I want to let people know where I am. Basically a 'here I am falling catch me willya', or at least see where I fell and pick me up.
I exude craziness on a daily level. I still act the child, eat badly and come off as being impossible most of the time. Truth is, I can't help it. Try as I might, I can't help it. I have the adamance of a kid and a tantrum to go along with it. I have always had this. I don't know any other way of expressing needs. I don't know how this came about but it must have been the way I was made since I don't remember being any other way.
Readers of this photoblog know that this is essentially a very depressive account of a life. This account and of the 5 other accounts I have had over the decade or so I have kept gigabyte record. I try though to remain upbeat in some of my postings and this is becoming increasingly hard to do. I hope the pictures at least make that pictorial account colourful and interesting. Some of you who have been following this over the last decade or so have been some of the only people who know what's been happening to me over the years. I have made new friends, lost a few and kept a whole new bank of feelings and impressions garnered from the thousands of pictures posted by my very limited friends list.
Truth be told, this is just about the only way I express myself. And to be honest, I write stuff in here with the assumption that I'm the only one who reads it. It's my diary. It's private. But if something should happen to me, then someone would know. 'What happened to her? What is she doing now? Oh yes, I read it in her online diary ... What? It's in her tags you see ... '
You know what dear moonbeams? I'm alone. And I'm scared. My 40th is looming close. I promised myself I'd end it all if my life didn't meet some hairbrained expectation set so long ago by myself and my folks. I'm not rich. I don't really have a career, I still sleep on someone's floor, I still have that damned teddy ...
Call it conditioning. I can't shake it. That's what 24 years under the cane does to you. I look to potential suitors for help. They don't. They tell me no. They tell me they won't play this game by my rules. This is how it should be done. This is how couples do things. This is how normal people live. Then they hook up with others and play my games.
Fuck you. I gave you a precious small slice of my time. I invested. I hoped. You didn't pull through. At least you could have made an effort. You should have not made me feel as if I was the weird one. You should have not made me feel that a piece of me has been torn out.
I then turn to familarities, Kal, Bruce, Diana, Hal, J'Onn, Carter, Arthur, Oliver, Barry. And yes, Thomas Magnum. Fictional characters who are much more believable that the ones I meet in real life. They replace holes in my chest. Pieces of lost reality being replaced with unreal heroes. Well done. I'm even more delusional than before. Makes it harder for the next timewaster.
And in the meantime, old demons call in to visit. Don't eat this or that. You're fat. You're ugly. Throw up before the body places that biscuit squarely on your thigh. Take these pills, they make you go quicker. What did she say? I'm lazy. That's why I'm fat. Yep. A size 8. Fat. What's that? A lump on my breast? Don't bother. It isn't worth it. Keep it quiet lest they think you're seeking attention. Call mom. Hoping she will make it better. After all, it's MOM! No. You're a failure. Come home.
In the meantime, still rejection e-mails pour in. What? Intersexed? Whats that? No. Not my thing. You'd be surprised how many think I'm a bloke. Well I am. On a genetic level. Try explaining that, the operations, the complications and waiting for the inevitable 'no'. But if you have a workable vagina then I'd fuckya. Heck, he or she would play my games, collar me and tell me what to eat if only I had a nice vagina. And oh, while I'm at it, a different chromosome.
Yes, this is all depressive. It may be. To me it's not. It's what I'm feeling. And yes, I'm scared. I'm alone. The sum of my experience sits in my head unshared. The deadline is closer. Thinking of ways ...
But hey, tomorrow is another day. A promise is made by another that it will be a better day.
Fuck that. It's the sleep tonight I'm looking forward to. A long sleep. A long rest. The mind will be quiet. I may dream. Maybe I'm married in this one. Maybe I have a loving home. Wouldn't it be amazing if I could take picture of what's in my dreams! It would just be like your normal ones ...
Even though you don't expect them all to survive, it is very difficult to lose them. Lost one yesterday and another today. Don't know what happened to yesterday's one - doesn't seem visible in the nest. You can just make out today's one by its beak in the bottom left corner. The other four are like little aeroplanes ready and primed to fly (we think about Saturday), although the weather here is terrible for fledging.
Sunday was a beautiful day and not what we expect around these parts in winter. The paths along the canal and river were non stop with walkers-and dogs! I had a bit of a mixed day, flitting between the hills and the valley bottom. I saw nothing much on the moors but I sat sunbathing on a broken down wall, not really bothered as it was so peaceful, calm and warm. A barge making its way towards Marsden on the canal is something of a rarity these days and it was going to find a shortage of water a couple of locks further on as one section was very low. I managed to catch a grey squirrel drinking at the waters edge with a nice reflection in the calm water. A Treecreeper and a Coal Tit were flitting around the same dead tree stumps. I also took my first photos of the Dippers for the first time for several months, they seem to be on a stretch of river set back from the busy paths.
Josh and Tiffani are expecting a beautiful baby girl on September 15, 2015. It was my honor to capture these precious memories just days days before they become a family of three!

Global propionic acid market is expected to reach USD 1.53 billion by 2020, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Animal feed application dominated the propionic acid market accounting for over 50% of global demand in 2013. Increasing demand for mold & bacteria curbing additives in animal feed coupled with growing concern for improving animal nutrition is expected to drive market growth.
Europe was the largest regional market accounting for over 35% of global propionic acid market demand in 2013. Favorable regulatory scenario along with growing food preservative & animal feed market in the region has favored propionic acid demand over the past few years. The regional market is expected to continue dominance over the forecast period on account of new market supporting regulations and expanding niche applications including herbicides & bakery preservatives. ‘The European Union Hygiene Directive’ by REACH aims towards maintaining hygiene and quality of mixed-feed products and is expected to fuel propionic acid market growth over the next six years.

North America propionic acid market accounted for over 28% of global demand in 2013 and is estimated to lose share to high growth regions such as Asia Pacific. Asia Pacific market is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 3% from 2014 to 2020 owing to expanding animal feed additives industry in Australia, India and China. Chinese propionic acid market is characterized by growing demand in food preservatives and pharmaceuticals.
Calcium & sodium propionate was the second largest application segment accounting for over 18% of the global demand in 2013 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of over 2.5% from 2014 to 2020. Increasing packed food consumption due to changing lifestyle is expected to drive calcium & sodium propionate demand in food preservatives.

I expected to see these biomes on our approach to the Eden Project, but as its built in a huge hole in the ground (a china clay pit in a previous life)you don't get this view until you've passed the entrance. A spectacular view as you enter the Eden Project.
I'd have expected a sim called Crystal Palace to have something to do with the architectural marvel built for an exhibition in England in the 19th century; there's at least one replica someplace else in SL. Or perhaps to have crystal there. Or maybe a palace. I mean... it's SL. Why the heck not? Crystal Palace sim is an ordinary residential/commercial island, though, with suburban houses, suburban churches with evangelical signs out front, and... penguins. I don't know why there are penguins here, but I thought I'd hang with them while I fished.
The place does have its quirks, though, such as levitation. I'm a fairy, so I'm used to it. But here, the penguins levitate, too. Even the 7Seas vendor levitates. Maybe the place isn't so ordinary after all.
No custom catches here. No music stream. But there are penguins.
Been working through Wrong Turn customs. One of the folders I made is labeled "obscure reference bears." She's got a bunch of baseball bears, soccer bears, bears with random props.. but then there are things like "Romano and Rivera Bear." I googled it and found nothing. Did an in-world search and an estate office and group came up. Eleven members in the group. I must have fished on their land at some point. Into the Obscure Reference Bear folder it goes.
HoF #347 today.

We weren't planning on this tonight... Darren and the girls were on their way out the door to drum circle, when I realized, while washing dishes, that there was no hot water. Darren went down to the basement to check the water heater, and found it leaking all over the floor. We called Larry and Sons Plumbing and Heating and they had someone out here within an hour or so, and since we decided to go with the same type of unit we had before, which they had in the warehouse, we had it installed before bedtime! Besides the $1500 unexpected expense, it was a brief frustration.
Alas, it was only a Song Sparrow. Most of the birds at Amherst Point turned out to be birds that I encounter in Florida at one time of the year or another, with the exception of Black-capped Chickadee and Ring-necked Pheasant. However it was fun to hear and see an Alder Flycatcher singing in an alder thicket.
