haiku #1

comfort in silence
sharing the ordinary
heart & soul connect

haiku #2

another nameless bar,
watching the door & waiting
with that sinking feeling

haiku #3

pretending to be a tourist with no agenda but to enjoy…

My daughter went to see Picasso’s (is the Picasso necessary) Guernica yesterday in Madrid. She is having a fantastic time.

This morning I was thinking about how you could use your ipod on shuffle to predict the future. The song that plays first is a predictor of how your day is going to be. It’s as valid as astrology. You could slant the predictions in your favour but creating play lists with a select few songs on it.

My play lists have names like…

  • feel good
  • chillin’
  • getting jiggy wit it
  • get down
  • mellow
  • girlz
  • running
  • new stuff

On the way to work today I listened to my feel good list – and I do!

Peace

Librarians… fingers on the pulse

It is important for librarians to have an awareness of significant cultural events and news and I am going to dedicate this post to two events in recent history.

  1. Noise – the fantastic Australian movie was name Best Australian Movie by a bunch of Film critics. I have to agree. It was one of the best movies of 2007 and I am so over quirky Aussie comedies. I was thrilled that the critics got this one right. I am a big fan of Brendan Cowell.
  2. Shock death of Heath Ledger the Australian actor – I can’t really say much about this but I was moved by the news of Ledger’s death. I really made me feel sad. I know people die all the time. Many of them not celebrities but this one touched me. Senseless death!

Life is precious. Peace.
