It feels like I’ve just had a bit of a win at life moment. I have found an awfully good Mediterranean food warehouse 2 blocks from my brother’s apartment. I went and bought a lot of small bits to make dinners with for the princely sum of $7. They also have Orzo (Rice Pasta) Yay! The list of what I… Read more →
Tea cups
Is it possible to be in love with a tea cup? I think I’ve found the perfect ones at T2. I must stay away from this store until I am rich. Hah. That’s a good joke. I wish the website had a better picture. Read more →
Morningtown Ride
I was just watching episode 3 of The Trip with Rob Brydon and Steve Coogan. The two of them have a sing along in the car of The Seekers – ‘Morningtown Ride’. Its a song my Dad used to sing to me as a little child. Weird how I just heard the lyrics and it all came back to me.… Read more →
Monday
I woke up this morning feeling muggy and gross. It had been raining all night, and the air conditioning was now off. I have no idea what the high temperature was today; but coupled with the rain it made for a sweaty bad time. Aside from my trip to Medicare to do my rebates, I stayed inside mostly and cleaned.… Read more →

35 Degrees and Baking
Right, so today I went to IKEA and forced Joff into buying homewares. It is so I avoid doing it myself. It was really hot today. I think it got to 35. I know I am slowly going to have to brace myself to get used to the heat. We don’t really have any dinner food, perhaps this should have… Read more →
right!
Time to do something other than listen to endless hours of Ken Plume Podcasts! However, I do suggest listening to them if you have a spare few hours- possibly while riding public transport? (That was for my UK friends) Get them from here: http://www.asitecalledfred.com/ Also for my UK friends; I just ate half a packet of Jaffa Cakes. I now… Read more →
The Brian Campaign
So over Christmas, I was in Christchurch. As a joke conversation in the garden at Brian, Anna and the two Josh’s flat, we discussed the ability to mount a poster campaign to make Brian famous. It was kind of a joke because I pointed out that Brian’s smiling face was quite pleasant to look at, and that his friendly expression… Read more →
Until Dawn
Listening to ‘A Whiter Shade of Pale’ on a stinking hot Melbourne summer night. I know that this isn’t even the highest heat I’ll experience. I am missing my damn friends in Christchurch. I am also surrounded by boxes of stuff… Everything I now own fits behind a couch. That, I admit is really fucking weird. Especially all my friends… Read more →
