""Love knows not its depth till the hour of seperation.""



I was sitting at Damian's guest couch next to his PC at work, talking to him, staring at his montior. It had the above words written on it. I think it is pretty true.



My meeting was boring, but its over now. Its a beautiful day and I'm off to Quay computers to talk to them about a deal. Then out into the sun. I think a rollerblade is in order

coke 10:57AM

Hey I agree! To Tom & Kate, keep up the good writing, I wouldn't have a clue what you were up to otherwise. Shame you guys weren't here, you missed a good party for Tammy's 21st. Anyway, about today...



I started the day with a coke and headed out the door. Yada, yada, yada, and I have just finished the day with a coke. For me, coke is kinda like the melenage, the spice (if you've read Dune). It awakens my awareness and helps me be creative. Many a line I have written under its powerful influence. Today though I have not the time. I have just returned from watching AI with Damian. It was a little slow and touchy feely for me but with a bit of a different ending on it. Basically it is a variation on Pinocio, a puppet wanting to become a real boy. I was thinking it would be more along the lines of conflict between AI and humans but it was not to be so. Did I tell you I had started writing a book. Its about half way through and maybe 10 or 20 thousand words, I forget which, but a far cry from the 100-200 thou that I really need. Writing requires a lot more than you would have thought. I'm going to have to go back over and pad it out a little. Its about AI's though and their original creator, freezing himself for 10,000 years to awaken to a silent planet, apparently deviod of all human life. He meets an individual who slowly reveals what really happened. Gonna go see photos now...



Back now... It is said that Dry Roasted Peanuts are very good. It was me who said this and I agree with myself. I have just been over to the girls flat to see the first photos of Amy's 21st. There were a couple of good ones with me in them. I have sent away the mother load order from my digital camera, about 200 photos, thats including doubles for others though. Its going to cost a bit, but it matters not, life is not about money, its about how fast you can read and I think at the moment I'm doing all right in that respect.



I rollerbladed out to Nguranga gorge again today and then later went for a quick one with Gerry and Amy. It has been a beautiful day for it indeed. I'm totally loosing concentration here so going to go to bed.



BTW its 20 to 2 at the moment so relatively late. I think I need to do a Forrest Gump and just run one of these days. Hop on the road and run for as long as I can and as far. Just go at a real slow pace so I can handle it and maybe take a couple of days worth of food in a backpack just in case I last that long :P Night
