I went to visit my podiatrist for the first time, after my rheumatologist referred me, due to ongoing pains in my toes despite lack of arthritis (actual inflammations). I had to take of my shoes and walk around a bit, and she did some pushing and pulling and feeling in general.

At one point I had to press up and down against her arm with my feet, which didn't go very well. I have a lot less strength in my feet than I should, to the point where she expected me to trip over my own feet almost constantly. I don't because I pay a lot of attention to how I walk so I don't trip (which in turn eats up lots of energy too). She suggested getting a good physiotherapist and luckily for me I already go a referral for that yesterday. In the end, it turns out I have inflamed nerves and I'll get inlays to help relax my feet a bit so the pain goes away (a little). She made it clear that it won't do miracles, and I chose to go ahead with it anyway.

It appears we got my RA under control, and I have all these side-things that make me hurt anyway. Heads you win, tails I lose...

I've spent about a week fixing, tweaking, uploading and changing things so that (almost all) my images will come from flickr.com. I've had a pro-account for over 5 years and got tired of maintaining my own galleries and images on my site. I upload most of it to flickr anyway, so I figured 'Why not?'.

I really looked at reasons 'why not' and none of them seemed that much of a problem.
- Flickr may stop working (yes, so may my site)
- Flickr may do Bad Things to my images (currently, I don't believe that they will. In the future, maybe, so far, I've had no problem with the site and I don't expect any.)
- <insert other reason> (yeah uhm whatever)

I've installed the WordPress Flickr Manager plugin to help with the fancy stuff. It gives me an 'flickr-browser' in my post-edit screen so I can easily add a photo or two. Ofcourse I just figured out the HTML and edited flickr's 'send-to-log' layout to match the HTML.

I'll have to work back and edit older posts to match everything (I hate inconsistency) so it does increase the amount of work for a little bit. But after that, easy peasy photos in my post, woohoo.

I've tested Flickr's send-to-blog (actually, the 'e-mail-your-photo-and-send-that-to-your-blog') feature with a bunch of photos over the past few days and it worked like a charm. Which makes me want to post more little photos and such.

Not sure if that's a good thing... ;)

My precious drawing book, in which I haven't drawn for a while.



I love the little fish on the cover, they don't make it harder to bring the book, I've just not had that drawing mood...



I will pack it for my little trip this week. Must Want to draw.
