back to it!

after catching up with some sleep i managed to drag myself out of bed around noon. unpacked, laundered and grocery shopped. yep, i got myself organised. i've got a life to get back too. it's true. whenever i go on holidays from melbourne as much as i enjoy myself i look forward to coming home again. i think this is a good sign, don't you? maybe found somewhere to put down roots. nan would be proud. "at last" she'd say. of course it would be followed with, "there's nothing wrong with boulder". ha!


the evening had me tramming (sigh!) into the city to meet jamie, jill and mark for japanese before heading to the fairfax studio and MEOW MEOW. marija and i caught her act almost two years ago on the esplanade in perth so i was keen to see her again. definitely didn't disappoint. a performance and cabaret artist, she sings in russian, english, french, spanish, german and there's insane crowd surfing, rose throwing and deliberate wardrobe malfunctioning so people can undress her then dress her again. it's all about the love of a good audience and we all definitely loved her.

jamie and i stayed around to walk through the free ACDC exhibition in the arts centre. have i told you how much i love melbourne recently?

p.s. left my ring in the airport bathrooms. lost and found aren't open til monday. it's probably lost forever. i'll let it go after calling qantas.... :(
