you pervert ;)

don't make me go over to your stream and compliment you. don't make me!

wonderfully true title too!

it is an expression that i use all the time, perhaps more than any other .. and yet it has never wormed its way into a photo title, despite many opportunities.

and now is its chance to shine.

AS they say in Cape Breton (and elsewhere I am sure)-- we'll get enough sleep when we're dead.

Gorgeous shot, Stri. At first, in the litttle preview square, I thought ti was morning light streaming in.

Mannered but revealing self portrait. It would be nifty if this picture grew around your avatr when one hovered over it.

As for sleep, I understand, but it’s important to learn to love sleep. At one point in art school I found myself sleeping every other night because there was so much to do. Ironically I did not get all that much done and what I did do was forgettable.

I’ve fantasized about slowing down the rotation of the planet by a quarter, for a 30 hour day. Up for 20 and sleep for 10...

You bet. Nice shot... Kind strange the picture on the wall... It is Fernando Pessoa a Portuguese poet... and he use to say more or less the same thing. Is ti a coincidence??
