Psych Faculty and me Had a really enjoyable talk today with Kyle Matsuba, a member of UNBC's psychology faculty with an interest in ethics: how we develop them, measuring attitudes, and that kind of thing. We met to explore what if anything I could do to contribute to his new, secondary interest bearing on internet use but spent at least as much time talking about the ethical enactment of modern dilemnas in Sci Fi, children's attraction to Harry Potter, and even the Okal Rel Universe. It's always such a treat when intelligent, thoughtful people show an interest in my heretofore closet existance and resulting ideas. I feel in danger of taking more psychology courses. Maybe a methods course in September. If that's workable, given work, family and writing, I may be at risk. At least I've decided not to take anything else this term. Getting Far Arena done is the priority, and Second Contact too if humanly possible. Feel mildly guilty about playing tonight instead of finishing up the editing for Edge, but can't seem to do anything but creative things in the evening after about 10 p.m. I write drafts, but can't do final proofing; play with photoshop, but can't get myself to to work work; play not-so-creative-games like spider solitaire, Blog, or just read. Otherwise I have trouble getting to sleep. Recreational Reading
