the bagel saga comes to a close
one step closer to all being right in the world. there are bagels back at starbucks. this morning only blueberry bagels which seem just a little wrong, but on tasting them a better substitute than the honeyed croissant. starbucks almost lost me but they're now regaining territory. i tried other venues but i just like the morning routine of a venti mocha frappacino, no cream and a plain bagel, zapped with cream cheese. and the couch, well armchair is perfect for my needs and i shall have a similar chair in my own study one day. surrounded by built-in-bookcases. wonder if starbucks will deliver then?

told you thursdays ROCK!
i wasn't really in the mood for going out but boy, am i glad i pulled my sorry butt off the couch and into the night.
alex and chris had invited me along to hear a band at the hifi bar. turns out neither of them had heard them before either. it could've been a very very bad investment.
turned up in time to see the support band, art vs science. who rocked the joint as well. a sydney act. catch them if you can.
the headliners were datarock, a norwegian four piece. AWESOME! suited in red sweats, just glorious. a high energy, insane set. they just kept on going.
to add to the entertainment they screened film clips with the band members playing some of the scenes. alex and i were trying to keep up with what they were. sixteen candles, ET, dirty dancing. but the best by far was bmx bandits. hilarious. oh... and then the finale was the audience and the band singing to one another, along to "i've had the time of my life". magic moments.

found! photos on phone from weekend
with a name like this i'm not sure if i'm more tempted to eat here than not!!
and strangely enough i had been conversing with a friend about the disappearance of all golliwogs only the other day. then walking through one of the city arcades i come across this window.
walking home through carlton gardens at night, listening to good tunes. yes, it's safe. yes, i'm careful. yes, it's beautiful.

the heart
...the world changes when something in it is loved. words become feeble. colours glow. every moment vibrates in the possible importance. and the heart that loves wonders how it lived, in the past, without loving - and how it will live now, now that it loves.

4 years today
since dad died. what have i done since then? lived or existed? bit of both. having a "what am i doing with my life" day today. too many questions, not enough answers and no one to answer them anyway. i miss his insane conversations.
