SO. Tomorrow evening, Sea and I will be on the boat to Finland again. 8) And then our travelling adventure begins! Since I need to be careful with packing I won't be bringing my netbook with me; only my itouch. So I probably won't be able to check in much. Just a heads up.
Anyway. Today I spent much of the day at the National Museum art gallery. IT'S PRETTY BADASS and I took about a zillion photos, though who knows how they turned out, really. I was pretty wow'd by the medieval/early renaissance stuff. And the Peredvizhniki exhibit was absolutely amazing *_* I've now fallen in love with painters that I previously hadn't even heard of.
But man, there was just so much to take in. Pretty amazing. I've never really been to an art gallery like that. Well, I mean, I've been to the one in Halifax, but only to see the Greek/Roman stuff during the Classics Society trips. Not the rest of it. And they wouldn't have had much like this, I expect. Well, anyway, it was good. ^q^
Ahhhh starting to get a little nervous about travelling. I'm not sure why. It'll all go fine, I'm sure. BUT STILL.
Now, on an indexing-related note. Because Delicious is being a dick, I got a Pinboard account. It's like Delicious used to be, but a bit simpler. Here. This is kind of a test-drive. If I like it for personal use, I'll consider moving the indexes there. This is more of a just-in-case thing. Maybe Delicious will fix everything properly, but maybe not. I know Diigo won't do the job I want it to do. So, Pinboard seemed the best choice. It's a very fandom-friendly site, anyway, and the site-owner is planning to make adjustments to improve its functionality. Hopefully they'll give an option to display numbers alongside the tags. I like numbers. Well, we'll see what happens.
