The Seldon Plan
been reading Asimov lately. Am hoping to get my butt into gear and write a little discourse about 'Foundation'. That and some of the other books/stories i've been reading recently. maybe a reviews section on the site...?

In other news, saw Finding Nemo last night. Was a great film, although I'm not sure that it's suitable for young'uns. I experienced the whole gamut of emotions from fear, through laughter and fun, through to a total wrenching of my heart. And all that lies between. I'm not sure that a seven year old could handle that kind of emotional seesawing...

...or maybe i'm just too sensitive for this harsh reality we call life.

Now to the future. Tomorrow morning (very early) I am off to Poatina. A small town situated in the foothills of the Great Western Tiers in the Northern Midlands of Tasmania. I take to the air in support of modern transport, and land again in the middle of nowhere (aka Launceston Airport), to spend the following week participating in Fusion's annual International Conference.

Where I get to see Kaia again...

Truth be told, I am somewhat excited at the prospect.

1982
Rocky. Eye of the Tiger was just playing on the radio.

I feel like running down the street, up stairs, and shadow-boxing...

I've never even seen rocky. My favourite Sylvester Stallone film was probably... umm. "I am the Law". I know: a quote, not a movie, but whatever. Rocky was released in 1982, the same year that ET took the world by storm.

And the same year that my twin younger brothers were born.

What a year!

my first time...
from what i can gather about blogging, it's customary for the first entry to contain a hysterical mass of comments about how this is great, and how i'll post every day and then some, and how everyone will be so excited to read about the trifling details of my lfe...

i'll be surprised if i'm still doing this in a month's time. i've never been very good at keeping a journal, and just because this one is computer-based, doesn't give it any special consideration.

i'd like to give you some idea of who i am however.

so go to the writer's profiley thing. i don't know what it's called! i'm a newbie, or whatever...
