This is Canberra

The other week I went to Canberra for a few days. While there I went to a few galleries and parliament house. I managed to sit in on the last sitting of parliament for the year and saw Julia in the flesh. All I can say is; she is very well spoken and she was kind of hot in her Ivory coloured coat. If given the chance I would definitely sit down and have a cup of tea with her. I think I would like to chat with her about what it’s like to be top dog in very much a man’s world and how she is able to restrain herself from giving too much lip to Tony Abbot day after day. Did I mention I find Canberra to be an odd place? Well, I do. Sadly, not in the odd sense that I might like to return, but odd in the sense that everyone seemingly leads the same / very similar lives and it is not something that I would want to be apart of. I wonder if that’s why there are so many bottle shops?*





I drank everyday that I was there.

Because I'm lazy and largely uninspired this is a short post.
Love found. Super adventures in check. Mental state; satisfactory.

jury duty

Ah, shucks! I’m entering into day 14 of jury duty and I’m not looking forward to it at all. Tears were shed this afternoon, I know this because I saw them in a fellow jurors bag. I wonder if she knows I managed to catch a glimpse? I don’t know? I don’t think so? However, I had a brief thought that perhaps she wanted me to take a peck? Eh, despite that, I think everyone is going a little stir crazy. I think the shit food and air con is getting to us all. Tomorrow I’m going to try and out do myself in the instant coffee stakes. Currently my personal best stands at, err..., I think it’s seven? While others have suggested to me that this experience is something that I shall remember for at least a long while, I’m more inclined to think if I am to come away from this with anything, it is that my samurai sudoku skills are through the roof!
