2003-11-18 - 7:21 a.m. The Gods Must Be Crazy I just might shoot the nuts in California. Some of my team is out there at a meeting, which they wanted me to attend but there�s just no way. I�m already hauling working home on the weekends. A three day trip was out of the question. I offered to support necessary bits by telecon. I sent them back a pithy message explaining I wasn�t untangling the conversation and pasting in my availability. Again. This morning, I get an �Oh, wait, we didn�t need you after all, but perhaps for the discussion on Thursday� message. Inefficiency makes me loose my temper. Oh, look, all the sucker balls have fallen off my window. Let me just go hurl, um, reattach those. Right. I do actually exist, despite the work that�s eaten my life. Saturday, I even saw real people, went to a real restaurant and a late showing of Master and Commander. Let me just say, I find the Muvico at Arundel Mills disturbing. I�m just not comfortable with a movie theatre looking like a temple. It says something about the gods of our modern culture I�d prefer not to ponder � though I believe the theme was adequately covered in that movie �The Gods Must Be Crazy�. Also, the glaring uplights from the floor make for sudden and unpleasant blindness. Sunday, I took my sweet husband to Matrix: Revolutions. Let me get straight to the heretical part and say I thought it was fantastic. I can�t wait to get it on DVD, because there are some subtleties that warrant a longer viewing. I did find the end a bit abrupt, but I�m still mulling it over. What I really want to do is fill the house with people willing to debate philosophy and have an all-day, back-to-back showing of the three Matrix movies, interrupted by much food and drink. David? Susie? Colin? Lucia? Miles? Ni? Gyrth? Even in my hobbies, I�m geek like. Gotta jam. Have a presentation in an hour and I haven�t prepared a thing. � � �
