sorry for the delay and this post will be a disappointment for sure. no posts today either. i haven't had internet at home in a while now and apparently, brazil has trouble fixing it or at least, doing a good job as far as customer service goes. so... no internet means no connection for posting images of istanbul or anything like that. this might just be the singular most aggravating fault of this country. i don't mind traffic. i don't mind a lot of the things people usually complain about. but customer service here drives anyone beyond their limits. patience, grasshopper, patience... oh dear.

(i have added 2 new links to the "blogs to see" list on the right there: ffffound and today and tomorrow. i've been exploring, hee hee.)
