Evening

Weather: Calm, cool, shadowed. The sky is pale pink.

Done some adding-on of counters and links and stuff: enjoy and make use! Well, as much use as you can make of something that sits there and counts. Still, we shall forgive it for it's lack of social skills - just give it a nice pat on the head as you leave.

Sharp and snappy I am not

Weather on Neptune: Still dark and calm. No moonlight.

I'm been reading some of the other blogs on here, and it's made me think about just what makes people do this. Why exactly am I putting so much thought into the phrasing of these words? Thoughts on the world, passing impressions; for me, a snapshot of who I am, right at this moment, facing the future I will have explored just a tiny bit more when I read this again. Probably I'm getting a bit tired, right now... The man reading the news has a very large chin. I wonder what he was like at my age. Heh - late-night Star Wars screening. NZ television is so great.


An oasis on the blue planet.

Commencement

Weather on Neptune: Dark, very dark. Rather cold, no wind.

Hmmm
...
first of all, a warning to be prepared for all the nutty and rather spasmic outbursts of a first-time blogger - the chipmunks are coming!!!!! Second, thanks so much for reading this! (Just take that for true, will ya? ^ - ^)
Now, my comparably sober thought (nothing to do with drinking, by the way): having a blog is rather intimidating. It's not supposed to be, published in the glorious anonymity of the internet, but for some reason (possibly just a youthful lack of confidence) I feel like I'm missing something. I'm not one of those people with strong views about everything, and usually I'd rather listen to other people than take the chance of someone listening to me... (random musings about judgement, second winds, not seming like a complete idiot and the like)... Maybe this whole 'editing' thing should be stopped. Surely, since you're going to put out a piece of your character for all to see, and some people are gonna hate it no matter what you do, you should take the chance to be as truthful as possible? Nothing to lose; it's that 'first-class banana, second-rate apple - and not everybody loves apples, so you may as wll be a better banana' kinda thing. This is a banana-blog. Stay tuned.
