No, just plain old Brunswick for me! :)<BR/><BR/>The doctors have said that if my sister hasn't given birth by the 29th they will induce her. So, only 8 more days at the latest. I can't wait. There is nothing more beautiful than a baby - the way they smell, how tiny their features are and how soft they are. And there is nothing more peaceful and tranquil than a baby sleeping in your arms.<BR/><BR/>As for poetry, why do you need to invent something when someone has already said what you want to say? Next time someone tells you not to put it down, tell me and I will fix them up for you. :)You should try to get a hold of Czeslaw Milosz's Roadside dog that the poem came from. It is mostly just his random thoughts on the world and life, but it is very compelling<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I now want to see what I inspired you to draft.

Nice and big and round? Must feel awesome to be having a new one come into the family.<BR/><BR/>Moving to Melbourne- it doesn't have the light or vibe that Sydney has, but it has other things going for it, like... well, people tell me Melbourne has a better live music scene than Sydney. Less dancey. My glass ball tells me you want to live in East Brunswick, close enough that you can breakfast now and then at CERES and get frustrated by the service.<BR/>Anyway, no move has to be forever.<BR/><BR/>Yeah those shows can be surprisingly engaging sometimes. There's so much creativity out there. Pity such a portion of it is used in advertising! :) <BR/><BR/>I saw the Joan Of Arc film here recently. It was live, ie. Live organ. <BR/>The actual film went missing for a long time, but then was found after decades in a Norwegian psychiatric home, not far from here. How random. It was really intimate - there is no way they would have shown a film like that in the 'old days'... if you get a chance, you should check it out. <BR/>Of course, movie theatres don't have pipe organs - the screening was held på a fabulous church at the local university. how appropriate for the film. was JdArc mental? I don't know; Yes; Who is to say;... how would I ever know?<BR/><BR/>So cool to see somebody put their poetry on their blog. No one's doing that any more. I started getting grief for it - "If you are so into it why don't you put some of your own?" which I really responded badly to... <BR/>like I do to most things... :) <BR/>must remember to get myself a helmet.<BR/><BR/>I'm really happy to 'hear' from you after so long :)Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06662108596775928419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046759.post-7075479305474994262007-06-21T07:19:00.000+10:002007-06-21T07:19:00.000+10:00Oh my god!
