I've been useless today. Yes, it's Saturday, but I've got a stack of work I must do. Or rather, must have done. But none of it GOT done. And I've been this way all week. The main reason: The Boston Celtics, my basketball team, are in the Finals. Nothing else really matters. And I've been online all day just reading up on every detail, watch clips of every interview and highlights of every important play. Now I'm downloading the last game because I fell asleep before the FUCKS at UBC got the replay...

I do these Japanese private lessons. After a few months of doing this kind of thing for the first time, I may just be beginning to get the hang of it. Why? Because I'm realizing it's just all about flow. Just moving forward, playfully. Thickhead I am, for too long I was walking in these apartments and trying to TEACH them. But it turns out they teach themselves if you flow flow flow with it. I'm not all that naturally great with little kids - I'm the younger of two brothers and was never very close...

I'm not so sure this is gonna hook me but I'll give it a shot because LDMA seems to think this is my dream come true.

I've been looking into Joomla and some other easy-peasy type web page building programs. Joomla is used by Richard Barrow over yonder to extremely fine effect. His stuff is inspiration to me. Always quality and never a sour note (ahem...*cough*). Once I do get a page/blog really up and running, that's the kind of thing I'd like to produce.
