Two weeks ago it was dry as fuck.
Since then we've had a few storms and it suddenly looks like England.
Think we might get another storm or two from the tail end of that cyclone up in the gulf.
I'm glad you've travelled Oz.
I find it annoying when I meet people who have been on many overseas trips but never explored their own backyard.

Haven't been to Tasmania yet. But have been to every mainland state.
Best driving holiday was to Perth, twice, in a Nisan Pulsar. The Nullabor is a lot more interesting than say The Hay Plain. The SW coast of WA is amazing. Thought Kalgoorlie was an expensive toilet.

Yeah, I loved the Nullarbor, did it twice.
Second time wasn't as fun getting caught with drugs by the border patrol at Eucla.
Interstate drug trafficking was the charge. What a load of bullshit.
Then I got arrested in Mackay for not turning up to the court case that was 12000 kms away.
Anyway, there are some very interesting characters out there, in places like Iron knob and Ceduna.
And yes, the SW coast of WA is amazing.
I lived in Donnybrook for a year, 1/2 hr from Bunbury and I explored all the way down to Esperance.

I feel like pointing out that, this afternoon, I had the biggest HPB haul I’ve had in quite some time
And this week’s entry in the Deep Hurting Project... well, it looks like it’s going to be a doozy. It’s one of five films to get a 1/100 score, and given that it was made to clumsily cover up FIFA’s ass, and its opening weekend gross was in the triple digits, well, I fully suspect United Passions will be one of the worst films I’ve ever seen.

Sitting in a parking lot waiting for my son to close at his first day on the job.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

How adorable (seriously)
The only time my dad ever did anything like that was when he took time off work to see me off at the airport the day I was conscripted.
Just went into the kitchen and found two spider legs on the floor. I think Major may have eaten Boris.

Bukowski said of his first experience with cable TV:
Charles Bukowski Wrote:"We got cable TV here, and the first thing we switched on happened to be Eraserhead. I said, 'What’s this?' I didn’t know what it was. It was so great. I said, 'Oh, this cable TV has opened up a whole new world. We’re gonna be sitting in front of this thing for centuries. What next?' So starting with Eraserhead we sit here, click, click, click — nothing."
I can only assume that, if you watched Adult Swim at 4 AM on 14 March 2016, you'd have a very similar experience:

Just finished another unit in the gawd-awful Excel course my employer wants me to complete.
It's online, which I am used to as far as learning, but this is the worst course I have ever had to suffer through. I will persevere though since I paid for it and I want my reimbursement. At least I am past the halfway mark (just barely).
I'm your huckleberry.

Listening to music, and thinking about what I'm procrastinating. :/
