On Guilt
littlebird with broken wing
doused the burning beauty
and even though it tried to sing
the sun back to the sky
the darkness froze and hate
enclosed the creature's sad advances
"Goodbye littlebird. I've finally heard."
You get no second chances.

Jet Lag
so clearly I was bad about posting for most of the time I was in NZ. After we moved out of the railway campus I didn't have very good internet access and I was lazy/writing an ungodly number of papers.
Anyways I am back now and terribly jet lagged. The 20 hr difference from NZ to CO wouldn't have been too bad because its only 4 hrs of real day time difference, but the 17 hr difference from Brisbane to CO is killing me. So now it is 3 am and I am wide awake, much to the displeasure of my dog who is grumbling and hiding her face in my pillows to get out of the light.
On the flight from Sydney to San Fransisco I watched a video of Pink's I'm Not Dead tour on the in flight entertainment system thingy. Pink can do circus shit!!! She was on the aerial net for the song Fingers (and she actually could do a few tricks, even a drop) I can't find a video for it though. In the finale she had 4 hot pink fabrics. I wish I had a hot pink fabric. I think that Sarah is the only one who can fully appreciate how fabulous that is.

Old Trees in New Zealand
A 300 year old fig tree outside the police station in Russel.
Tree in a Park in Auckland. The branches were so big they had to be supported by metal crutches.
These symmetrical looking pine trees are all over the place. They look like cell phone towers but are real.
Me in a kaori tree at the tree museum.
At the tree museum again. The rings on the wall show the diameters of the largest known kaori trees.
The inner most ring on the wall is Tane Mahuta, the tallest living kaori tree. Below are pictures of Tane.
They say that Tane is hollowing out and dying and will fall over soon.
