I’ve been forced out of my hiatus by A Floating Life who has tagged me. I’ve never been tagged before so I figure I’d best try it on for size.
The rules of this game as they stand:
The first player of this game starts with the topic five weird habits of yourself, and people who [...]

Well today is my second last day at work and I suspect my posting will be very thin until early next year. I’m not taking as much time off this year as I have in the past and I know I’m coming back to the mother of all workloads but I’m trying to forget [...]

So I’m attending an anti-racist rally on Friday like a good Aussie with one of my house mates when another one of my housemates call.
He’s just got home to find the back door has been kicked in and the house has been ransacked but nothing seems to be missing.

me (worried): Lose, what do you mean lose? Is she ok? Where are you?
MATE: Yeah, she’s fine, just a little ‘Lose’. Were down at the Town [...]

I’m so excited. I haven’t felt this way since Christmas 1989.
Tomorrow morning at 9 am I go and pick up the 8 seater Tarago. Then I pick up 7 other friends and we drive to what I believe will be my 5th consecutive Meredith for the Meredith Music Festival.
*squeals*
I picked up my boy [...]

I fear I might be too late too late to nominate for Australian of the Year, but I’ll tell you who it should be: Mick who the fuck is Lewis.

Bloody legend!

What’s going on? Webdiary was never my favorite blog, but I always deeply respected what it was trying to do.
