Well, I went rollerblading tonight in Eltham after Rob & Jess insisted at ice skating last Friday. Of course, neither of them ended up going, so it wound up being just Tony, Chris & myself. Although Kim, whom I met last week, was also there. There weren’t very many people – about thirty or so,… Read more
Today Rob & I were at uni for a few hours shooting a piece for Totally Wild. Natalie Hunter, a reporter for Totally Wild, got wind of our project via La Trobe’s “Bulletin” magazine, and contacted the uni a month or two back about doing a story on it. Since it wasn’t working at the… Read more

I forgot to mention, last night when I got home it was just in time to watch the Atlantis launch via web stream; Travis had it running when I got home, watching and waiting. It was pretty amazing to watch right through from launch prep to final separation. It’s incredible to think that in just… Read more
