Hello interwebs. I have been quiet for a few days. I have still being dogging the web for stuff about my previous posts but not quite as hard core….plus New Carissa news has been quiet except Friday (my time) when there was a bunch of links related to the second jack-up barge moving into place. Dude the squealfest I had at work when i saw the Google Alerts…but then the whining because I wouldnt get to look at them till Saturday because I was going out that evening….. 😀

Anyways I was meeting up with some friends Friday but before that I went and visited the new Apple store that had opened the previous evening in Sydney.

1) its shiny 2) on the ground floor they had all the different Macs available and you could just rock up and play with them (once someone else had moved because EVERY machine was in use MOST of the time) 3) the net connection is faster than mine at home (DAMN!)
It was so shiny and pretty and I would LOVE a Mac one day. I wanna play with that GarageBand program! That looks interesting!

Today (well yesterday NOW) I have been reading the His Dark Materials trilogy. I read the Northern Lights (aka The Golden Compass) before the movie came out but mum stole my omnibus so she could read it too so I couldnt read the other two stories for a while.
Its taken me a while to feel compelled to read again because lately I have been rereading The Farseer Trilogy (I am so in love with Fitz, The Fool and Burrich that I could hurl! I LOVE THEM PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Patience too – I think she is a darling. Molly and Kettricken keep pissing me off.)
ANYWAYS, so I finally finished the Subtle Knife today and started on the Amber Spyglass. GAH! I want to keep reading but dude the book is HEAVY so I dont want to cart it around to read on the train. So have to wait till I get home.

Anyways thats about all thats new with me. Thrilling eh?

You know – I havent posted on Livejournal for a while. Thats soooo weird for me!
