i was writing a very long and inspired catch-up post yesterday when the power suddenly went out. needless to say, everything was wiped away into nothingness and now i don't have the energy to try and reproduce what i'd written.

so until i do replace that post, some pictures in lieu of it to tide you over:

p.s. the hand in the turtle picture is not my hand. it's actually kim's. wesley sure is one observant bastard, but my left hand currently has a chunk missing from the top of its ring finger and looks disgusting and is certainly not worthy of a picture!
