A weekend in the real world

Just spent the weekend celebrating my daughter’s 16th birthday. As a family we shopped for a Wacom Graphire digital tablet, hair straightening tongs, Douglas Coupland’s novel, Microserfs, and a foot massaging cushion. We went to Chinatown in Brisbane for a banquet. Had friends round today. Went to church in the evening. And followed that up with a second bite at Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. In all that time, I didn’t get any time to do any writing. Or reading. I might have read a couple of pages of the Courier Mail, and a few articles from Time Magazine before dropping off to sleep but that was it!

It’s been good.
