I was looking forward to visiting Wanganui this weekend as my wife is running a 3/4 marathon as a training run for the Hutt valley ultra marathon. Seems that I'll be stuck here instead.

3/4 marathon..? are there a lot of Hobbits in Wangas...

Yup. But not in a theatre. On the telly once it's released on iTunes. Same as the other two and two of the LOTR series (saw the first at the Embassy in Welly). I get to choose intermission when I want it and it can run until the next day if required.

Besides which, if he makes enough billions on this one, he might finally get around to starting the one I've really been waiting for.

Oh, and Mark, buck up. If they really thought it was LBA they'd know it was incurable and let you out. Probably something far less serious.

Seriously, though. I have been through a similar situation myself. Not as serious by the sounds but completely unidentified by the time it went away and yes, far worse at night. I wasn't in hospital and I figured out that one of the best ways to feel good was sunshine. I think that old concept of SAD has some truth in it.

The most annoying thing about my situation was that while being up all night during an Olympic Games might sound like perfect timing, it was the year they were in Sydney, so the coverage ended before midnight. Argh!

I am still not sure what Timaru did to deserve him - I was very disappointed he didn't stay up your way....

Thought it might be a great time to have a performance evaluation to see who santa is going to bring the best pressy to.

Hmmm. If you factor in the number of Likes given I think I might be at the other end of the chart. Didn't even know it was a thing!

Oh, and the creepy hawker photo reminded me that I spied a Canon 5D Mk II in the wild the other day. The thing is HUUUUGE! That's the only reason I noticed it enough to check out specifically which model. If Pentax ever comes out with something that big I will be looking for where to insert the ink cartridges.
