I went from some of the most fun weeks of the year to falling to pieces. Literally. I'm getting hayfever / annoying things from goddamned hell. I'm three-quarter-deaf in one ear, my eyes are permanently watering and itchy and sore and I've got the sniffles and I can't sleep very well and it's too hot and blah blah.
Time to cancel work for the week,...

Gasp! Never talk about curling like that.
Never.

That is not a good thing.
I've been working for the Australian Labor Party. But my job is super confidential, so I can't tell you about it. (Hint: if you're an old lady living on the Central Coast, I look forward to speaking to you).
I got a job at Blockbuster Bondi Junction, working with Linz. I anticipate we will spray each other with water and laugh, all in slow...

Oooh! Secret squirrell operations!
Well done on getting job! I've always wondered what working in a video shop would be like (as in, would you get to see loads of movies, or would it drive you nuts as people would interrupt you watching all the time??)
Bob Dylan is the man!
Well.....one of them!

Oh you must see The Woodsman too!
How lame was that last entry? Wow. For the record, getting punched is not one of the most amazing feelings of my life, I think that may have been hyperbole. Was an experience though.
In other news, family Christmas thingo for the next three days up north. Fun in the sun. Or rain. Depending on the weather. Clearly.

Dude. I just saw the Strokes at the Gaelic Club. Eight or so new songs, and pretty much every song I wanted to hear (yes, Reptilia and New York City Cops). That's kind of superfuckinghyperrad.

You may be able to fly into Chicago for a lot cheaper, since Chicago is THE international hub. Chicago is only a few hours from me, and you'd get to experience both cities. (Chicago is cooler than Detroit, but Detroit has that gritty, Motown edge a lot of people like).
We'll meet eventually. I'd love to see Australia and New Zealand some day.

Yeah, after being a florist for so many years, getting a job as a receptionist so I could quit being laid off every summer...I never thought that would mean I'd be dealing with numbers again. But in all fairness, it's all addition and I rarely have to count over 1ff.
