Didn't do the Louvres (I think I've visited more than 10 times the thing in my life - thanks to the young/student free pass).
But I did lots of aimlessly wandering and window shopping :)
It's been a while since I posted pics' here! Trying to comply with Zaara's request for a 'Fantasy nature' theme :)
Zaara wrote: "Thank you my dear"So very succinct! Who are you, and what have you done with the Random Essay Queen? :p
Do you like the pictures? Did I manage to fulfill your demand? Did I fail? Do you have a favorite? :D
I like them, my favourites are #3 and #4 😊
I think my favorite is number two. If it wasn't for the tall mountain in the middle it would be a perfect location for Gondolin :)

Clearly some sort of dimension tag got stuck... the dimensions returned to normal when she stood up at the end... it's like the game forgot to adjust nipple location when she sat down, so they stretched to accommodate...
I majored in computer science in college, with a minor in breast graphics ;)
Damn, we never had a breast graphic minor to choose 🙁

I was inspired from a young age :)
Tomb Raider, Playstation 1, 1997... there's not much point, but you could take a running jump and grab a far ledge, and then instead of just climbing up, you could use your ridiculous upper body strength to turn it into a hand-stand, to get up:

Woke up this morning in a spectacular foul mood! No real reason for it, and that means I can't really vent (which makes me even more frustrated). Even doing almost 2 hours of tennis serves didn't work... :( :( :(

Harry Bosch is always talking about his love of Jazz in his crime novels... the newest book used different Jazz music to signal the beginning of each chapter... I didn't mind it as much as I usually do when books use music so often...
Some books keep the music going so long after the narrator starts reading, that I worry it's not going to stop (Graphics Audio PTSD :))
