Kerri Loves her Libretto!
May. 31st, 2005 10:28 amShe's off to Sydney today - I'll get a phone call to pick her up from the airport any tick of the clock. She had a handbag and a small document case, containing her briefing notes for the meeting and her new subcompact notebook. It's as light as a trade paperback and you'd hardly know it was there. She is rapt in the power and freedom it gives her.
Me, I'm a bit envious, particularly as it's small enough that you could use on a plane, even if the person in front has their seat tilted all the way back.
Kerri, DD and I took a walk around "the big block" yesterday. We were talking air travel. DD and I are plane junkies - the other day we stopped at the end of the runway as we came back from our interstate shopping run and watched a 737 coming in to land over our heads - and Kerri, while not quite so rapt in travel, has certainly done a fair bit, both over the past year and with the Navy. I'll probably never get to Samoa, for instance, but she went there to join her ship on a cruise. I'm still finding it hard to believe that I've been on four continents, albeit the Asian bit consisted of the transit area in Changi. DD's trip to Vietnam was an experience for her, and she's planning to see more of Asia with her travelling companion from Vietnam. I think she's allocating some of the money from her first year's employment when she graduates.
I wrote a bit more of my novel. This is too good to leave until November, and I suspect that the rest of the plot will come to me as I go along. Pieces are falling into place in that odd sort of magic that happens when writing.
But I haven't forgotten London. Or my other projects, and I do a bit of each as the fit takes me.
