goodbye, millennium!

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2000.12.26

Well, this has been a great year, and now it's about over. It's been a particularly good Christmas. Hooray! It almost goes without saying that we've had yet another snowstorm, and another 5-10cm of snow for our visit to Ontario. It's still -18o C, despite the snow fall. Incredible.

I suspect I may be getting excited about returning to Sydney. This new millennium is going to be amazing.

[edit: 2021.08.03. "Amazing"? Not quite, but I'll give it "interesting". You'll have a rough patch from here, kiddo, but then later you become a dad.]

Satire is tragedy plus time. You give it enough time, the public, the reviewers will allow you to satirize it. Which is rather ridiculous, when you think about it.
