ridin’ dirty face
i have no idea what the stories behind these images are, but they’re powerful and well worth a look.
linky thanks to no traces for the tip off.
introduction.
typically random ramblings and late night dribble.
stockholm webcam
new link added to the ’stockholm’ links. the local was getting a little lonely over there by itself, so i’ve added a link to a pretty cool streaming webcam with a nice view over stockholm.Â
the current view (assuming it doesn’t change any time soon) has the mälaren lake to the right which continues off to the right of the picture, out under the västerbron (you can see traffic entering and exiting västerbron towards the bottom of the frame) and off into the distance.Â
also just off to the right, you can see another bridge carrying traffic, just above the middle of the frame. this is centralbron (central bridge, you can also see it in the picture in the previous post), connecting the city centre to södermalm, where i live. my place is just out of frame, otherwise you could just about see my building i think.
the most prominent tower towards the middle of the shot (just to the right of centre) is stadshuset, the city hall. i’ve got a snap of this in silhouette here. just out of shot on the left is where i work, about 5 minutes out of the city centre.
so there you go, there’s your stockholm geography lesson, and a nice view of whatever weather i’m enjoying, provided it’s not too dark.
this is not a photoblog
pretty damn incredible sunset tonight, and of course i didn’t have the camera with me. i took a couple of pics with the phone, but it really doesn’t do the scene justice.
oo-ee
i’m a bit drunk, and there’s nobody around to talk to. bastards. i suppose i’ll be off to bed soonish..this was really just to make up for the fact that i haven’t posted anything for a while.
i’m sick and my fucking tv doesn’t work
that about sums it up. i’m assuming it’s because my old cable provider was bought by someone, but apparently i have to go and exchange my current set top box for a new one. so until i do, my digital tv service is fuxed.
i’ve also been sick with a damn cold/flu again the past couple of days. seems like everyone at work is either dead or dying. only went in today because we’ve essentially had no staff in my department so far this week. not-a-good-thing.
i’ve just got home and feel like complete crap. i’m attributing quite a bit of that to the -16 degree temps outside. i couldn’t muster up the strength to walk either to or from work today, and just the walk from the subway station is enough to knock me around at the moment. feel all weird and dizzy and my ears are ringing a bit. stupid weather.
