For the last two days I haven't been able to access any google pages, including gmail. I thought it might be the network - the same thing happened with Sydney Morning Herald a week or so ago - but my housemate has access, though it's slow. Computery housemate is at IV, as is icansinghigher, so we won't be seeing fengwah.
Advice, anyone? -

I'm cursing geographical restrictions on ebooks and audiobooks every which way at the moment. This may be a naive question, but if I made up an American address, do you think the download would work? I have a feelling that would be way too easy. *cries* My hand is not good enough to read atm (and yes, I shouldn't be writing this) and I really, ( Read more... ) -

I'm back - tired, happy, and with a new store of beautiful memories to last me for the year: tiny fish leaping from the water to avoid the pursuing cormorants, the pattern of light when you swim underwater towards the setting sun, the view from Tomaree Hill, the image of my almost one year old nephew pulling himself down the steep beach towards the ( Read more... ) -

I'll be out of town for the next week and probably not checking the internet. This is my annual time out from whatever life is throwing at me.

Actually, considering how many children there are, my days might not ( Read more... ) -

You know that Walk Against Warming rally I posted about last week? Well, it's tomorrow. Yes, really. Check the website if you don't believe me. 1pm Martin Place, for Sydnysiders. I would really appreciate company. It's an international event, timed to send a message to the folk in Copenhagen. -

For the benefit of the Isobelle Carmody fans who are not on Obernet (everyone else can ignore this), The Sending is no longer coming out in March next year. Best guess is late 2010 or 2011. :( I suppose if I've been waiting sixteen years I can wait a few more. -

I've decided - on the promptings of another masseur - to keep a pain diary. For real, this time. It might show something I've never noticed before.
Also, there are ants in my room. ANTS. I only left one apple core and they have converged. -

My last assignment is due tomorrow, which is awesome. Freedom so close. It's going ok - I'm only 100 words off the limit - but I continually disgusted by my inability to stay focused ( Read more... ) -

Six hours ago my computer crashed, due to faulty video software. Or something. fengwah just finished fixing it (bless him). My 3000 word essay is due tomorrow and oh god, there's so, so much to do. I usually don't write at night because I can't produce anything good, but I don't really have an option this time.
At least I have chocolate. -

This is a short video that sums up 350 and what happened on the 24th. It's very cool - all the different languages and the various ways people chose to get the message out.
