twiggy

I miss Scotland tonight and for the silliest sort of reason, I was looking at AnnaLee's new set and was just overwhelmed with this desire to be in Edinburgh in Autumn. Theres a quality to the light and a scent in the air that you just don't get anywhere else and looking at that set I was practically there. I didn't really realise until I finished looking at the set that the feeling was homesickness, a very specific sort of homesickness, I want to walk across the meadows in the mid September late afternoon, climb the million steps to my top floor flat and lay in the sun there with the windows open. I was homesick for Edinburgh and homesick for my man and for intimacy and love and the ability to be myself in a space that was all my own. I realise this is a pretty heavy response to a set on a (lovely though it is) alternative wank site but there it is. I couldn't very well comment this on the set so I have blogged it instead. If you haven't checked it out already you really should-it's stunning.

I've pretty much decided that I want Australia to be my home for the foreseeable future but at times it breaks my heart not to be in Scotland.


Oh, and in response to a question on my last blog, sadly no, there is not much chance for euphemistic alone time in the shower as 10 of us share one bathroom and the door doesn't lock.

Goodnight dears. I want to show you some pics of my life here but you'll have to wait a little longer as nowhere in mildura has a 1hour photo counter and my pictures will have to be sent away to be developed. They won't be back for ten days. This is incredibly irritating.
