Just a couple of more images. In haunting B&W.

It was an amazingly warm day in London. Too nice and too warm for November. As a result, a massive fog covered everything the next morning. I woke up in the morning and there was only one right thing to do – to go shooting in the park.

Finally, amazon has delivered a newly published Bioshock novel Rapture. I’ve just started reading it and so far it’s great. You probably couldn’t care less about it, but it’s a great addition to the story true fans would appreciate. Also it’s actually good to buy a book for a change, rather then just all those creepy toys :)

The Rapture book makes Andrew Ryan so much more alive. I’ve noticed that I don’t think of him as a fictional hero anymore, for me he is as real to as Churchill or Napoleon. And he is quite an inspiration. Weird, right?

So this is the beginning of the iconic city. ‘Oh rise, Rapture, rise!’

We all are waiting for the happy ending, aren’t we? So here we go:

Day 66. Liberation.

It’s hard to believe, but nine weeks of my imprisonment are actually over. Today my cast is gone! Happy day.

Day 60.

Hyper Japan 2011 was on in London this weekend, and I had tickets. It was a rather good fun last year, so we were looking forward to freshen up some memories from our trip to Japan, to cheer up for local cosplayers and,  no less important – to have some authentic Japanese food. Alas, we did not get in – the queue was just way to long, and waiting for 2-3 hours wasn’t worth it. Shame though. I should be getting refund now.

And that’s just a half of the queue, we did not bother to walk to it’s end

Day 55.

So, additionally to a new cast I was giving a special shoe. Well, there is nothing really special about that shoe, it’s just wide enough for a foot in a plaster and is ‘uni-foot’.

At first I was like: ‘Oh cool!’. But then I was like: ‘Yeah, but I still need crutches, so what’s the big difference?’. But now I can say it’s all I could dream of. Keep reading »

Day 50.

Last week I thought I was busy. Well, I was wrong. London agencies don’t want people to work remotely. Damn capitalists! They don’t realize that with fewer interruptions I can actually work better and faster at home. Besides, at my place I have a very lovely desk setup. Made with love and exactly the way I like it, the way it makes me the most productive.

I’ve been at home for a few months now and when I think about going back to office soon(er or later), I feel… intimidated . I think about hours of commuting. Late trains. Smelly buses… And those horrible Dell keyboards and mice in the office (thank goodness, I almost always can bring in my own). But the worst of all – the chairs. That’s probably the worst offender. A rare company invests enough in those bits of furniture. Good chairs are expensive. I know. But when you spent 8-10 hr a day, sitting on it, it better be something good and comfortable.
