While I'm having a busy week finishing off illustrating a book, finishing off 'im indoor's website because it's about time he damn well has one, watching his book truly fly off the shelves [ever the optimist - splendid book, especially good for christmas present for EVERYBODY - hint hint] as of tomorrow, getting used to my not whining about how he's always working on the damn thing, expecting that I will soon start begging him to start on the next one so that he's not under my feet all day, and drinking a lot of coffee instead of stuffing my face with my new found extreme cake joy [Lidl Mini Stollen - omg, marzipanny goodness], I leave you with one of me vids from earlier this year, because frankly, it's been too long, you need to waste three minutes of your life, and I think they need to be seen more. of. prepositions. dontcha just luv 'em?.

Is it a perpendicular thing?

Why do you men have to piss against something?

Men pissing in semi-public is a common sight around here (from time to time I also pass a lorry driver nipping off into the woods with a bog roll.... but that's a different matter that I don't want to think about). If I could wee standing up, with a little dignity, as opposed to squatting over the risk of being thistled or nettled on the arse with the likelihood of drenched trousers, I might well do it in the open, like the men. It would be a boon, actually, because my bladder is a faithless companion. I wonder, though, if I would feel compelled to seek out only perpendiculars to piss on.

There are miles and miles of unbounded roadside in Portugal, without fence or wall. So why do they seek out the free standing gateposts or trees to piss against? What's wrong with pissing into the grass? Or onto the asphalt? Or a muddy puddle? Or into sandy earth to make a muddy puddle?

p.s. Before any of you say it, I KNOW that, obviously, snow trumps walls, but we don't get that here very often. If we did, then they would.
