Isn't Technology Wonderful

Walking to work this morning I just knew it was going to be a glorious day weatherwise. An overnight haze had evaporated and left dew on the leaves and grass. The sky, as blue as the sea, and the sun yet to warm the air. I decided to walk through the Park on the way to the bus stop, and I thought it would be great if I could take a picture to put on my Blog to show how beautiful Edinburgh can be on mornings like this. Then I remembered - my mobile has a camera; I could take a pic, send it as an e-mail to my work address, then upload it from my pc! And here it is...



It's not the best quality but hey - IT'S FROM A PHONE! :-)

Tonight is snooker night so I knew I wouldn't be getting much done. So at work (*chuckle*), I got to writing a pitch for KIC. I had started it earlier and then left it, before picking it up again. After getting it to a reasonable state I e-mailed Devon Ellington (internet writing pal), and asked her to give it the once over. She obliged and I am very thankful. She gave me some excellent suggestions which I made a start on before I went out for the evening. I will finish it tomorrow and see how it looks then.

I won 4-3 at snooker. A close fought match which went to the wire and which I eventually won on the black. As much fun as this game is, and I do enjoy a pint and confab with my father-in-law, sometimes I have to remind myself of this very fact; I do have to wind down sometime. Before I went out all I wanted to do was work on my KIC pitch, more on Hunting Jack and the short stories I have on the go. It seems that somedays, socialising gets in the way of my writing.
