Life as we know it

Yeah, I'm still alive, I've just been busy.

Yesterday we went to Abir's birthday party - I can't believe it's been yet another year since the last party. There were less people there than last time, but this time I knew quite a few of them - last time the only person I'd met before was Laura. Fun was had but we left relatively early (2 am) as I had to work today.

Luckily the gods of testing were on my side and my work didn't require me to go to the office - often I prefer to be at the office when working, but this time so much of the time had to be spent waiting I was glad I could do something else meanwhile. After about four hours of work we got the news that the project would be delayed... yeah, nice that I don't have to work any more this weekend but goddamn couldn't they have made the decision yesterday!?!

My meanwhile activities consisted of taking photos of my newly opened lilies on the balcony. I'm really falling in love with the Lensbaby macro lens, especially the closer one - for example I had no idea that Royal River lily had a bright yellow stigma until I took my camera on my hand and put it next to the flower. I mean, it's quite obvious if you look at the photo from last year, but it just hadn't registered before. I have a feeling my lily photos this year are going to consist mainly of these close-ups...
