Pointless photo of the day:

The Toronto office will no doubt be telling me I'm late posting.

Yeah, yeah, whatever. Occasionally I have to work, you know.

Ok... to be fair, work this morning wasn't too work-y. I was out on the trails with a coworker, and even though that's part of the job (it is, after all, a nature centre. We all have to go outside sometime) it never really feels like it. Going for a walk, checking out how spring is coming along, listening to the birds, watching the butterflies (yes, there were butterflies. Mourning Cloaks, in fact), not breathing...

Oh yes. I bet you thought I'd forgotten to complain about allergy season. Well OF COURSE NOT. It's always fun to go up the trail panting and wheezing because the poplar trees are secretly trying to strangle you. Everyone should try it now and again.

Anyway, it was a nice morning (gorgeous, if you consider that just a day or two ago they were predicting it would be 2C and wet snow) and nice to get away from the desk. Breathing is, after all, overrated.

Today's pointless photo (and I suppose I should have mentioned this earlier) is not of the walk today. It was taken a while ago, in fact. It was "proof" that the mule deer are gradually taking over my father's yard. The reason I didn't post it earlier is that a while after I took this photo the mule deer showed up in person.

Oh, come on. You remember.

Anyway, those shots made me decide that a simple print (and a guest role for my left foot) wasn't all that exciting.

So why use it now?

No idea.

And finally, an update on yesterday's update. I got home yesterday to find the bathroom in shambles yet again, but with one major difference: the walls -- ALL of the walls -- had a fresh coat of paint on them. Not just patch-filling, no. Could it be that the management has actually hired a contractor who knows how to do something other than a half-assed job? Shock! Amazement!

They're still on notice, though.

I'm not letting them off the hook that easily.
