Spit
A bit more work on Spit last night and today – put some more lyrics up, and started gathering materials for the “Info” and “News” sections. All good.
Table-tennis
My table-tennis rating rather briefly went above 1000 yesterday, for the first time ever. 1000 marks the average point, as I understand it, which means that I am now just below average (having lost two games to somebody rated at 980). It’s much easier nowadays for ratings to go up and down like crazy, ’cause we’ve gone over to the new international scoring rules – first to 11, change serve every two points. Much faster games.
Nausicaa
Finished watching “Nausicaa” last night. Fine flick, but rather minor and simple compared with the Manga, which was largely impressive *because of* the depth of thought put into it. I can see how people would see the film and think “so what?”. The Manga is a different story.
More parties
Anna’s been getting stuck into doing as many parties as possible, I think. Next weekend we’re going to a St. Pats thing with Owen R., and the weekend after I turn 33, so we’re doing another BBQ. It’s likely to be a fairly enormous do, provided we get invitations out in time. Chances are, if you’re reading this, you’re invited…
