2012.01
Its a hot day today, around 40 degrees out. So I sat outside in the morning while it was peaceful at the house. I really didn’t do anything much today.
I did a little gardening, cut some more rhubarb. Made it into a crumble.
2012, shaping up to be very domestic and dull.

My first attempts
So David and I went out pasting last night. For the first time I brought some of my own to put up.

the list
A couple of years ago, during a rant with Owen, I listed my bands I must see before I die.
My list was Ben Folds, Pavement, The Eels, Tegan and Sara, Cat Power and Mogwai.
In the last 2 years I have seen everyone but Mogwai and The Eels.
In 3 weeks I will only have The Eels left.

Tonight
Today was gloriously hot. On my way back from a long trip out to Brighton, I sent David a text message inviting him into the city for an evening walk. It was still balmy… we ate dinner on the library lawn, then David took me on a tour of the old Argus building. I was surprised with how easy it was to get into and climb. Well, easy, but quite the climb up to the top.
It’s quite hard to see, but there is a couple kissing in the centre of this photo, bathed in the light from the garage they are standing in front of.
After The Argus, we walked across the city traversing the laneways.
and spotting really enormous light fittings…
And spotting some of his previous work…
This is his latest piece in AC/DC Lane…
So with tired feet, we made it back to my house and had a cup of tea, before Mr. Klein cycled off into the night, on his flatmate’s hipster bike.

Me and my Aimee
So Aimee arrived last weekend in Melbourne. There may be some recollection of a post to this site last year when Aimee, Mandi and I drank too much, mocked beavers and sang our national anthems to one another. Well now she’s on my side of the globe for a few months. Colour me excited.
On Saturday we did the Melbourne ghost walking tour:
Tonight she came to the Fringe festival where I am working and geeked out over Dr. Who
