No, not Green, it's Grey. Totally Grey, but it's got some shiny silver stuff on it, so I hope to get away with it.
And it's raining and I am playing boss again and, apparently, I am bored.
But it's Thursday, meaning weekend is just around the corner. Oh, I am working for the weekend. Darned.

Everything just clicked as it should, even one major factor this time, bloody weather, which really messed up birthday weekend plans for quite a number of times till now. So it wasn't really a surprise that I probably checked weather forecast for about 10 million times this past week. And it helped. The weather held and we got sunny, of only slightly humid weekend. And then... Andrea came to Ljubljana on Friday afternoon, then Tina and Uroš, of course with babygirl Taja dropped by to say Happy all and stuff, and then also Ricky came. And then Saturday finally came. Igor, Robert, Matjaž, Riccardo, Andrea and me attacked Adventure/Adrenaline park above wonderful lake Bled. My oh my, that park was fun. And no pictures, because we were really busy surviving. LOL It was great, but good lord, my muscles are killing me today. And then Marijana joined us when we got home. Light lunch, cakes, prosecco and off to two hours of bowling. Apart from Matjaž most of us totally sucked. Totally, but it was really good. Beer helped. And then back home... for more bottles of prosecco and chat and laugh and music and all and then - at midnight, when 26. May dropped in the 27th one - it was time for Happy birthday, Andrea! And today....... we were licking our wounds. With smiles on our faces. Nice little smiles after a wonderful weekend spent with the people I love the most.
Oh, and I have to say that: cakes and prosecco - courtesy of Mr. Andrea! :)
Yes, I love my people.

There's nothing like it. :)

Ok, or birthday weekend of bitches. Andrea and me. And if I am 22+20 (oops and edit: not 22+30 :-)) then Andrea is...? :-)
Anyway, pardon me for not being a good LJ member, I will return when weekend is over.
Hugs and stuff!

Yes, it's the 24th May here already and according to Douglas Adams' and his guide to the Galaxy, I officially became an answer (for all of you not in the know: this). Anyway... About accompanying picture. It's a tangerine that one of my colleagues gave to me sometimes during (...it's been a long, cold lonely) winter. It's completely dried, stabilised, it's still carrying a shape of better, long gone times, it's not really juicy any more, but it's still smiling, right?
And that's all that matters. So happy birthday to me! :)

The Moon was again so big tonight, I just had to try and capture it again. Still no breathtaking sharpness and it's two days after it was full, so... I got something out of it, right? :)

Yes, it was a lovely quiet weekend. I had big plans about going to Padova to a party, but when the time came I just didn't feel like going. I cancelled the hotel room and all and, of course, half an hour later I felt sorry about it all. But... sometimes you just have to suck it in and proceed. But all in all, it was still very pleasant. And what am I bringing to you in this F-Blog? Friday afternoon dinner at Marijana, Saturday midday stroll and Saturday night super-Moon, as they all declared it. The sky above me was a little cloudy, so the sharpness was something beyond my reach. Oh, well, there'll be another shots, right? And tomorrow is back to work after 10 days off. It. Will. Hurt. I know it. :)
Oh, all pics are, of course, flickr'd.

Starting from behind, with the Moon.

YAY!!! My flickr photostream went over 50 000 views today! It made me happy, really. I have a little more than 1400 pictures on flickr, so I guess that's a decent average. And the most viewed picture on my flickr? I have to thank red-hot-handsome
doughynut for it. It's this one:

So it made my think a little more about my online presence. My first real attempt at keeping a proper webpage was Paterson's Place on The Web, the site I was maintaining from 2001 till 2006, when I moved to LiveJournal. It registered almost 24 000 visits till today, which I think is okay for a tiny page, outside all of social networks and such.
And then there's, of course, YouTube channel. I started using it way back in 2008, first because I posted a video as a part of a challenge
snowboardjoe threw at us. It was simple: post a video of yourself. And then came those Slovene lessons and I have to say that those videos still get a lot of views and comments. Later on I posted some photos/music/videos mixes and I am still planning to do it. And the most viewed video on my YouTube channel is, of course, the first language lesson.
Slovene Lesson #1 - 14 720 views
All my videos on YouTube were viewed almost 48 000 views. Me happy. :)
Before YouTube I posted videos on Vimeo, because it offered a HD option whereas YouTube at that time still hasn't. I only posted three videos there and Insha'Allag got about 1000 views.
So what else is out there? I have a Facebook account, but I am hardly ever using it, I am also on Twitter, but I mostly follow (and partake in) Slovene political stuff, I still have AIM, Yahoo, MSN and Skype and there are some rather tacky online profiles out there as well. And that's it.
Now I feel like a cyber whore. But we're in this together, right? :)

I guess days off are bad for my "beauty". So, today, I felt like I really have to do something.
And I did.
And it's sort of FYFF post as well. Unfiltered and all. :)

I wanted to make just one post, but I guess I just can't spring in Ljubljana with spring in Italy. And San Marino for that matter. LOL Well, the main story will more or less remain untold. Iggy, Berti, Ricky and me stormed a two days trip to Mirabilandia amusement park close to Ravenna, Italy. We had a blast of a time, and we also managed to do some "normal" tourist stuff this time. I finally put a new country on my "visited" map. Well, it's a tiny little country, but still. It's San Marino. Hmmm what to say. I have to say it left me pretty unimpressed. The city, especially the old part, looks like a museum. Soul-less display. So, two hours and a few pictures later we were back in Italy. In a country full of soul. And life. And good food. :)
Some images are here, the rest is a set on flickr.

Yes, the time has come for Ljubljana to throw on some green. Finally. So, here are a few shots from sometimes last week, I guess, and the rest, is, of course, flickr'd.
