I am intensely bored today. Possibly related to looking at various travel sites (within the US) and related books (Amazon is evil. I bought nothing, but my wish list got significantly bigger) last night, and some for Australia a bit ago (Swimming with Dolphins! Want!).

I also found myself startling _myself_ when happening to notice myself in the mirror w/no glasses. *sigh* I also see better with contacts vs glasses, as well as not being one for whom glasses are an improvement (some people look _good_ with glasses. I don't look bad, but I look better without them). I really should give more consideration toward eye surgery, even if the terror relating to them fucking up is a big factor.

I seem to be a bit ansty with wanting something to _do_, but I don't have any free weekend days for a while. Perhaps I can convince my visiting friend to do something Sunday... and I need to do laundry and bills!

Hey, at least I have the energy to be bored. Right? And I _am_ doing work...

There's been some concern lately about the effects that swimming with dolphins (whales, seals, etc) has on them and their behavior -- you might want to look into it further if you're seriously interested in doing it :)

Huh. Really?

I am most certainly seriously interested in it. Any suggestions on what specific information to look for, and/or where to look?

I saw an article on it somewhere -- I'll let you know if I manage to dig it up. A peek at Google turned up this (http://www.wdcs.org/dan/publishing.nsf/allweb/CE3487228EF3EA8A80256C130056E1BE), one company's list of concerns.

Interesting. Seems to be mostly about taking a boat to get there, rather than meeeting them by swimming out from shore?

Ok, make that 'I can easily see how that could be a problem', but I'm not sure what I would need to do to reduce that problem, and/or where to get more information.
