The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall, England. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 km (1.2 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 km (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining omes that house thousands of plant species, and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The largest of the two biomes simulates a Rainforest environment and the second, a Mediterranean environment. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.
A co-worker caught me in the middle of a not-so-inner-monologue moment this afternoon, mid “Well that’s not a half bad idea”, and felt compelled to ask half smart assedly, “Who are you talking too?”
Who am I talking too?
I suppose it’s something of a bad habit, or just plan ole fashion weird, but for as long as I can remember, I’ve always talked to myself out loud. It for lack of better reasoning just seems to make sense. Under certain circumstances it tends to relax me. It makes it a bit easier to organize thoughts when I can actually hear them, rather then simply bouncing them aimlessly around the backwashed echoes of my head. Often more then not, when an writing idea comes to me, I will in most cases actually toss the thoughts out there verbally while working the bays, even rehears lines I’ve conjured up for my fiction work, just to see what they sound like outside of my head. Typically it is met with little fanfare or attention. The bays are after all a rather clamorous amalgamation of operating machinery, grumbling diesel rigs, hissing high pressure water wands, and yes, loud mouthed co-workers. Basically, it’s a noisy environment. As such typically my outwardly attempts at personal peer pressure, and suggestive persuasion go unnoticed, but there are those rare occasions when quite suddenly and quite unexpectedly…Some one notices.
Granted, I can understand the strange factor one might sense upon making the observation of someone such as myself speaking quite clearly, rationally, and occasionally intensely to himself. I do after all recall when Bluetooth first hit the market, and the concern I’d felt when trying to decide as to the best way to approach drivers that appeared to be deeply consumed in a very serious and lengthy conversation with no one other then themselves. “Cautiously” had been a word that had tip toed its way to the fore front of my mind.
Typically no one notices my verbally expressive rants of personal self indulgent, file shuffling and fictional character development. Today someone noticed. And to answer their question…
I said, “I’m talking to me. There’s no one else here I wants to talk too right now.”
Sometimes I really am my own best friend.

The first late night at work after the clocks have gone back. I stay late(ish) on Tuesdays before going to the pub quiz.
I'm disappointed with how blurred this is.

These are all pictures of and around the Antelope Valley Project in Lincoln, NE.
Right after I took this picture I heard someone coughing inside. I heard sounds from inside a few places. There is a soup kitchen nearby.
My friend, Lucy, is visiting this morning, while her partner teaches a class up the coast. We walked to the beach for a bit of fresh air and spotted these kite surfers. We didn't stay out for long - it was windy and my cold has moved to my chest. So the fresh air was a good idea but being out too long was not.

I'm already dreaming of my next mosaic projects! Look at this bounty given to me by a new friend I just met a few days ago! I'm so excited to get started!

that's the corridor on the last floor.
I decided to do a project where I go up to complete strangers and ask them "What's the first thing that comes to your mind when you think about yourself?" I thought it would be interesting to see how people view themselves. It is also interesting to see the different ways people write things down. I've been able to meet some really nice people so far.
I'm so glad I was able to meet Eric first. This allowed me to meet his wife Rachel. They were both so nice and more than a joy to talk too. This was Rachel's response.

I'm really proud of this dvd. It's got my favorite videos on it since i've created 10 hours of 5 minute videos this year!
Don't expect me to send you one of these. I don't do mail.
