So I'm slowly preparing a set of three posts that are 2007 in review but what with the pics and links and introspection and crap, it will probably take me most of this week to get them ready. (But my New Year's plan of getting up early to Do Shit is working! \o/ I've managed to go through and categorize more photos in the last two weeks than I have in the last six months - and since we're talking about some NINE THOUSAND (!!!!!) pictures (and counting!!!!) in 2007 alone, that's really saying something.)

The amusing thing is how happy going through my photos is making me. I've discovered this faaaabulous program called iMatch that has incredible organizing capabilities (it can edit and export IPTC, EXIF and SML data! and has hierarchical categorization! *geeks out happily*) and it's letting me indulge my librarian genes to their utmost. Digital photos are GREAT for getting my collection geek on: they're effectively free, they don't take up any of that peskily limited physical space on bookshelves, and you can rename them and recategorize them again and again and again... *drools*

So that's mostly what I've been splashing around in this weekend, and prepping some photos I kept meaning to show you lot. So! Much! Fun! And yes, Australia is coming - though I'm going to be doing the treeclimbing, Toronto Island at sunrise and ROM Crystal opening picspam first as part of my 2007 review.

But until I get all that together, in the meantime I thought I'd take

mycrazyhair's advice all too literally in her comment to my last post when she gently reminded me, "it's perfectly acceptable to write a post that says, "Huh. What the hell's that cat doing there?" instead of writing a huge big-ass post about the state of your life and mental well-being."

So, with no further ado: "Huh. What the hell's that cat doing there?" And more specifically, "Why does he insist on defeating the purpose of having a cover ON the couch by curling up UNDER it?" *throws up hands in good-natured dismay*

(And actually, that's also how he tries to hide when I'm trying to get him into his carrier and he's trapped in the solarium with nowhere else to go: he tries to burrow under the cover. *wibbles*)

Also, since I gather it's effing hot in Melbourne at the moment, I offer the following pictures to help y'all down there take your minds off the heat:
