@kdfrawg The terrible apéritif hour. The decent places at least have comfy chairs at the table for the 10 or so wines.
@kdfrawg I must find a bottle of aquavit again. 2 years is a long time to go without — I liked to have a glass every day in Oslo.
@matigo Quite. Half the price of Banana Republic IIRC, but completely unbearable.
Tried on a few shirts in H&M for the first time in years and suddenly understood why everyone wears synthetics at that price point. "Premium cotton" shirt felt like sandpaper on my back.
@matigo Someone called Danny Hsiao.
Shadows everywhere, feet cut off, parallel lines diverging due to the wide angle lens he used (for group portraits!)…sigh.
The email from my aunt (who arranged the whole thing) makes it sound like he's going to charge extra to "touch up" the photos for large prints.
Dear lord, the photographer who did our family photos in Vancouver is…blind…disastrous work on the proofs he uploaded. I could've done better with a tripod and a shutter timer.
@matigo Well, it is hard to say no to a few colourful bits of plastic!
