There are feathers in
your hand when you wake
and from somewhere afar you
can hear the song of beautiful
little birds, beckoning.
You want to join them.
A fluttering on the windowsill, now--
capture it in trembling
fingers and whisper
old memories into ears
that will transform your clumsy
human speech; new melodies
will be born out of your sorrow
and perhaps tomorrow
you will feel lighter.
For today, for now, you can hold the bird gently
fling it onto the sky
and smile.

The hell is going on in Britland? Question partly rhetorical, because after reading a couple of Tumblr updates I went off and googled to find out what they were talking about. But still. The eff?

Here are the rather belated ant photos. Not too sharp, but the best I could do at that moment.

I now have a Tumblr account, mainly for the purpose of following some people. If you're in the habit of posting, poke me and I'll add you.

Ropecon over. Now for some sleep. Not online much tomorrow either, since we'll be off to see grandpa. I understand that we'll be returning sometime on Tuesday.

I'll be getting a new lappy today :D With any luck I won't be subjected to random freeze-ups and crashes, and can actually visit the sites I usually keep well away from for fear of aforementioned freeze-ups and crashes. Methinks I'll be getting that Skype, too.

The most interesting characters (that I could recognise) seen today: a stormtrooper, and the three musketeers plus D'Artagnan.
Attended a talk about mediaeval heroes.
Bought a very pretty necklace - will have a photo later.
Spotted familiar faces, hung out, and played a couple of rounds of Dalmuti.

Also, got a blister at the base of my thumb (and chafed it open) while trying to open a bottle of water. No, I am not that weak. That cap just didn't want to come off.

My first actual work shifts are tomorrow. I'm in the volunteer workforce, y'see, which entitles me to a free entrance. I'm in the GM info team thanks to utter and complete nepotism - Jukka's the person responsible for coordinating stuff related to tabletop RPs.

At Ropecon this weekend and therefore not around much. Shall try to take photos of any possible Malfoys and other interesting characters.

While cleaning and re-arranging the bookshelves in my room here in Helsinki, I came across some old writings I've never put online. This poem is one of them. Nothing has been altered from the original, so you can blame any badness on that.


Beneath this sky
my world has no boundaries
all rules have been relinquished;
fugitives have no use
for careful words, soft steps
yet the paradox lies herein
in freedom there is fear
and our bodies have no grace

Trickling slowly from
dry broken lips
empty pledges wrap around me
like a cocoon of
cold fire; licking, burning
flickering almost gently
against scaly skin
aglow with shame or
something fiercer
heart and soul frozen by
an age-old vendetta

This is playing in my head, although I don't even understand the words. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfSYeXPQaQI

Either I have to learn to pay no mind to all the bloodsucking little creatures or start using some sort of repellent. Fidgety, flaily Lami does not a good photographer make. Also: OW. ITCHY.

I'm off to spend the rest of the week with the boy, so I might not be around all that much. Try not to miss me. :P

Nicked from Emu's diary, both as a reminder for myself and to give it more publicity.

I find I have a sudden craving for a bacon-chicken-mozzarella sandwich. Too bad I have none of the ingredients necessary.
