Just when I was about to give up on it, that is accepted it would be a long while before I'd get one, I received my google wave account! It is still in preview and doesn't work with the opera browser though, but it is a great step forwards and a nice piece of revolutionary software! I posted about it before. Those, like me who received their brand new accounts, will have noticed it comes with 8 invites, a number which will probably increase with time, just like it did with gmail. Accepted invites may take a while, as the Google Wave team explains:
Invitations will not be sent immediately. We have a lot of stamps to lick.
Very likely the last one. The accompanying video is not the original one. Also there's mention of The Perks of Being a Wallflower which got my interest.
I'm re-taking more pride and joy in being a father, recently.
In fact, it is one of the reasons I left my former partner, about a year ago.
Some stuff got in the way, and mainly it prevented me from relaxing and having a good contact with the girls.
No matter how much you try to spare them, or hide the uglier parts of life, they always sort of seem to know, or sense it.
Last Sunday, I prepared a dish with a variety of vegetables and good steak, chopped up to small edible pieces, which
I served to be eaten with chopsticks.
As my daughters are only with me two days every two weeks, they don't often get to practice eating this way.
I was pleasantly surprised, even slightly amazed, to see my dears, who can sometimes be oh so clumsy, handle the sticks so well.
I'm not sure they like to eat this way because it is different from every day's habits, or because they just like it better.
Maybe they just wanted to impress daddy.
It was just a matter of time. No matter how much I hated it, seems time caught up with me, and now, I had but one way to go. Well, no use postponing the ugly deed any longer. Let's get it over with.
I have never really known why, nor have I desired to know, but I always have had a weak spot for the real American Natives.
