Pic of the day: Black is back, on the catwalk of Daggerfall. At the Ashham fashion show of Tulune, the latest fashion wear from Oblivion Inc was demonstrated by these three sisters. (Any similarity to other raven-haired sisters, living or dead, is purely coincidental.) This year's theme is called "The Seducer". When asked for a comment on this, the supermodels unanimously replied: "Does my bum look big in this?"
(Actually, for those unlucky readers who don't have the RPG Daggerfall, the Daedra Seducer is a high-level monster who has the ability to dispel magickal shielding and temporarily disorient their opponent. They are less cute than they look.)

In other news, I was long at work today and forgot my appointment with the doctor. I remembered it on the bus home, when it was well and truly too late. I still remember my name and address, though. In fact, for once I even remembered to take my Ginseng extract in the morning. This is, however, probably due to me taking it in the evening yesterday, and sleeping unusually poorly this night (at least until the morning). Remember that I usually can sleep almost anywhere and anywhen. Today I slept ca 5-10 minutes at work. Luckily I have my own office and most people were gone home anyway. :)

A big thanks to the remarkable GabGab for the kind words on her LinksLinks page. This time perhaps AltaVista won't kick me off their index ... And to my new readers, please don't take offense at my mention of unspecified readers' "sick and twisted" interest in cows. I'm sure there is a lot of healthy, twisted interest in cows out there. In fact, though this may not be apparent, as a farmboy I grew up with cows as an integral part of my life. I'm not sure how much it shows...
Anyway, the goats made a bigger impression. I have sometimes thought that most of what I know about human behavior, I learned from the goats.

Bought more spaghetti today for the Y2K reserve. Market prices have not yet shifted upwards to reflect the increased demand.
