L to R: Marzio, Georgia, Luca

Taken at Vanessa and Andrea's pre-wedding party, Como, Italy, June 2005.

Marzio just had to close down the mythical Train Blues Pub in Desio, Lombardy. Wain. Good times were had at the Train Blues.

Marzio is Luca's bf from schooldays. Georgia is a nice British girl who lives near Vanessa and Andrea. Luca is... Luca. Not sure what he is right now. Cute picture though. Georgia and Luca kind of look like siblings here.

St. John's Point, somewhere in north Ireland

nice sunset was going down and made pretty colours on the white lighthouse and stone fence.

don't like shore dives, we had to walk a long way from the cars to the dive site. good dive though. my first Irish dive!!! Sometime in 2005, I think....

Again, not menacing at all... but since it was the first shark I'd seen up that close, I do admit I was a tad apprehensive upon approach.

Ummm... I wasn't exactly 0.49 km away... I though that was funny for some reason but now I can't remember why.... haven't been to that site for a while. It's one of Generalissimo Ze Frank's site. Should try to find it some time....

That thing that I'm resting on is what the guys used to get rid of the sediment so that we could find stuff under the seafloor.

It's known as a sea-scooter, and usually divers use it to get places underwater quickly. The Ukrainian McGuyvers used it as an archaeology tool.

I dunno if the coolie hat matches the improvised toga

Me at the beach party with the kids in Novy Svet, Crimea. They liked to play dress up. Really great kids and future archaeologists to rival Indy.

"Bunny rabbits" is the literal translation of "hitchhikers" in Ukrainian. I have no idea why. These are kids that were hitchhiking on the ferrry between Yalta City and Yalta Beach. Best tea I ever drank in my life I drank there.

Okay, a flood of pictures coming up...

A very nice person at www.whatsdrivingyoucrazy.com photoshopped the green bin that was in the lower left corner of this pic for me.
Big improvement. Thanks!

Wow, I found my flickr account!

I had completely forgotten that I had already uploaded so much on there. Not necessarily everything, but quite a bit considering my lack of patience for uploading stuff.

I hope this works.

I hope I can eventually get more stuff up here. I'll take a "Computer Fun" holiday sometime, and just spend hours uploading everything I have on my home mojo.

Well, at lot can happen in a few days...


The ball was a blast. I was literally the last person out. They shut the front gates behind me.
Too many stories, too much to tell.

YOU SHALL GO TO THE BALL!!!! REPRAZEEEENT!!!!

I kin hardly wait for the Trinity Ball tomorrow!!! Been preparing all week.

I wanna see Roni Size & Reprazent, among others. The link above is a song I used to dance to a lot. The video was filmed in my home town, T.O., and it's cool to see all the places that once were so familiar to me. Such an urban landscape that is now so foreign to me.

I like the magic egg timer. I want one of those!!!! ;))))

Step to the rhythm made out of brown paper.

IN OTHER NEWS

Check this space for lots of pix of the ball!!!!! Prolly won't post them until Monday-ish though. Going with the history bunch and staying with L-Boogie (Laura B.) and Cristina, but might go to a party beforehand with Fred Walker and his sis, Virginia. Tuscan-Zimbabweans from Piombino who study Mechanical Engineering and Law, respectively.

My get-up is--dare I say it--gorgeous. Very sexy, yet very demure--kinda like yours truly (when I'm not locked, that is). Lotsa black and lotsa pink. Black corset, black thigh-high fishnets with PVC tops, pink culottes, pink bodice, swishy black skirt, black and pink guccis, black vintage gucci purse, and long black gloves. Hair up, not too much jewellery (I lost too much at the ball in first year), and a tan that I've been working on for the past week or so. I don't think I've ever looked so pretty in my life. It's a bitch to get into though. Pity the fool that tries to get me out of it. He'd better have a pocket knife and a pair of pliers handy.
