Swimming in the rain

[bunn]

I went to Sandy Haven, and swam in the high tide and rain with a friend. It was so wet that by the time we had got out 'dry' was a theoretical state we knew we could not achieve. But it wasn't cold.

I got a notification that LJ at last has got tired of endlessly renewing my 'professional' package for free, and wants me to pay. Which I shall not do, so it remains to be seen how usable it will be without it. I have been mostly crossposting to LJ even now.

I just scrolled through some of the photos I have stored on LJ servers, and made myself sad. Vanished friends and family, beloved beasts and landscapes, good intentions, mean-spirited grumbles, books read, plans and hopes, things written, things drawn.

I've had that account since December 2004, through thick and thin. It's almost half a lifetime. I still can't quite bring myself to let go of it.
