'Duma'
Yesterday I saw 'Duma'. I just have to say it is an amazing movie. I absolutely loved it!
Young Xan (Michaeletos), living a non-traditional life on his parents' ranch in Kenya, takes in an orphaned cheetah cub as a pet. Quickly, Xan and Dooms, as the cub comes to be known, become inseparable friends. Based on Cawthra Hopcraft's picture-book.
That is pretty much the story of 'Duma'
The soundtrack is simply fabulous.
I'll definitely be going to the movie again, and probably more than once! A must see.
Atreyu
Now spinning in my CD player is Atreyu's new CD 'Lead Sails Paper Anchor'. I probably seem like the kind of person who might be a very big fan of Atreyu but I'm not. The truth is I've been very indifferent to Atreyu for quite a while. It wasn't for lack of exposure - Kiers is a huge fan.

At work
Last week I was briefed that the CamKit account has become profitable at work.
I can work at home too. Maybe I'll get a raise. I'm not going to get a copy of the ModGraph for the complete taskforce and have to reshedule the meeting with our Lead Infrastructure Planner. The reorganisation is only the first of two phases, so I was told.
