mighty videoconferencer

A very good day at work today. We had a videoconference -- that is, me at Winchester, the others at Birmingham -- and I know this displays my lack of modern technological experience, but I felt most gratifyingly high-tech James Bond coolness while doing it. (Little things please little minds, I know, I know.) I will probably be bored of it soon enough if I have to do them regularly.

Dentist tomorrow. Gah. Hopefully just a quick stopgap filling and a proper appointment later. Still, gah. Not that I hate it, but show me anyone who actually likes going to the dentist.

The weather was slightly cooler today. May it get more so. And may we have more rain.

Interesting, the anime character meme, in what it says about what people are prepared to say about the way they see us.

Conceit

I heard a winter tree in song
Its leaves were birds, a hundred strong;
When all at once it ceased to sing,
For every leaf had taken wing.
