Many years ago, I had a bunch of friends in Adelaide, Sth Australia. Simon, Ben, James, Matt, Andrew… That was between 1988 and 1992. In '92 I moved to Canberra, ACT (Australian Capital Territory). Andrew had already moved there around '90-91, so I caught up with him again when I moved there myself. Over the years though, we drifted apart. You know how it is… same city, different lives. He was married with children, and I wasn't.
It's Deidre's birthday tomorrow. She turns 33. I bought her a present today - two CDs, both of kiwi artists. One is by The Feelers, and I think it's one she's always wanted but never gotten around to getting. The other is Nature's Best, with a whole bunch of different kiwi singers. She only said last night that it's the only CD she would go out and buy before she leaves NZ to live in Australia, as it has the best of the kiwi artists and songs. So hopefully she'll be happy with them.
After playing with this blog format with my political blog (Eyes On The World, linked from the right there), I've come to really like it. So I've decided to continue my journal adventures using this format from now on.
The biggest reasons for this are:
It's part of a 'blogging community', which allows for increased public exposure through the 'Next Blog' click-through button at the top of most blogs. Increased public exposure means more people possibly finding an interest in what I have to say.
