Onwards ...

Hmm, seems that Silver Rocket is responding rather slowly of late ... maybe I need to run the Virus s/ware to check for gremlins?
Anyway, a rather interesting night, although I did get rather drunk :o Had arranged to meet AnnE at the Rumpus Room for a beer + chat, and then next thing I know, young Sam is invited in, before Brett wombled in, so we had a little party going amongst ourselves, just o/s - largely because they are all smokers ...
Then off to join the boys at Inspire for Trivia, and Sapparo beers - interestingly both have spare rooms, I need somewhere to live, neither was interested-where the team lost big time :( Although, the picture that they were aiming for, hoping to dump on me, was not one that I was looking forward to?
Anyway, afterwards they were keen to grab a curry, so I jumped a bus, which turned out to be driven by young Chris, over to New Farm, where I stopped at Alibi for a 151 nightcap ... The place was certainly happening, in a relaxed sort of way, but I am surprised I got home safely ... even if it was all downhill ...
Woke up extremely seedy this morning :o so it was a slow process getting there this morning - probably best that it was a late beginning? My goal today was to bring joy + understanding to all the lives that intersected with me today ... So had a few laughs today, to be sure :)
The song 'Hunting for witches' (Bloc Party) is playing in my ears (on the bus) and is causing rather unseemly distortions in the left earbud ... :o
There could be something to be said for playing with Silver Rocket on the bus, I tell you! Although, what JimE does, playing movies, listening to music, may not be as appropriate, given the relatively short bursts of travel involved? But there is always something to be done - could be an opportunity to do some of the 'reading' that I keep promising myself that I will do ... One day. Always one day ... Certainly games may not be an option, especially given their lag time with starting/pausing, anyway ... But, we shall see, we shall see ...
Keep reminding myself that I do not need/want to stop at Japanese for sushi, as I have remanents of flake in green curry at home ... Although, maybe, just maybe I could splash out tonight, as I DO need to pick up some bread, etc. Anyway, shall see what happens, shall see ... Does irk me that it is sometimes hard to venture there, and then be turned away because they do not have what I want ... Maybe I am the one that needs to change? :o Now there is a concept ...
The concept of an online presence, of being interconnected, has been echoing through my head, making me wonder about the split emails, the personal/public/business/professional/private perception, or personna, more likely ...
Hmm ...

Another day begins, and I need to think of a driving motivation for this day ... Or do I? Surely the impetus to do good is enough? Or would that depend on how 'good' is to be defined? Ah, the joys of relativism, hey?
Having had my morning coffees - two (2) in fact - I am buzzing like a lightyear :o but what I wanted to say was that there was a noticeable difference between the efforts of the boy (sharp, bitter, bit burnt) and girl (bitter to point of sweetness) ... Certainly is a kind of nice place to hang out at ... maybe this is the bars/pubs of the new era? An avenue for enjoyment of socially acceptable drug intake, or participation?
Hmm, there is something to be said for this late starts, although the last few days all I have done is sit around ... although, I did wash up, pack up some of a box, and tidy up personal papers, so was not all wasted ... Also realised that such a morning could be well utilised for going riding around the river - out via Riverside, around St. Lucia, back into W/E, home via K/P ... Now just have to do it, hey? WWonder if I allowed 2 hours that would be enough? Just have to try it, and see, hey???
WOW!!! Suddenly little Sue got on the bus - that was so cute!!! Am sitting up the back, saw her go past the window, get on, so I sat up and started clicking my fingers at her ... fortunately she got the joke :) Sat down and started chatting, poor duck is still quite ill, coughing away ...
Anyway, off to the South, listening to 'Gaskrankenstation' by Headless Chickens, does life get better then this? Of course it does! And worse then this! And all the points in between ... c'est la vie,as Moz would say ...
This job with BCC may be way to go - 14% Super, supporting the town you live in, public service ... Of course, it may help if I actually applied for, and got, the bloody job 1st, hey?
Hoped this stupid Mother of mine gets a move on and resolves the estate!!! At least then I will be able to make reppoachment efforts in good conscience ... Might give her until 30/09 before providing a gentle nudge, as it were?
In the mean time, AIR goes up, and I am in process of establishing a trading account ... But a bit worried about the CMA that they meep referring to, but have not actually seen any info on ... Plus I think I might change the linked bank account to the Westpac account, especially seeing as there is rarely much money in it, and hence less risk ..
Well, almost there again - just coming up to the Griffith Uni (MG) stop, so will save and wander on ...

Hey 3B :) a personal note for you!!! In my dreams, skating across all of this/us I have come to realise that you and I reflect much of self, which is possibly why we confuse ourselves/others so much? Please hang in here with me ... you are a significantly important person, I am trying to be your friend, but ( and this is only a 'but' in the sense of recognition, not a controlling or qualitative condition) I am unable to do no more for you than I can do - can't make you like you or me beyond what I can do. So I try. Can only do what I can do ... Please, please say 'yeah' ...

Meandering the web today I have a rich source of quotes :) Amazes me how I find inspiration in the words of others, as if to be reminded of the beauty that others see, directions that they point out to observe/inspire? 'The improver of natural knowledge absolutely refuses to acknowledge authority, as such. For him, scepticism is the highest of duties; blind faith the one unpardonable sin ... The man of science has learned to believe in justification, not by faith, but by verification' - Huxley
Of course I will probably get massacred, but maybe there will be something there that will appeal to someone else?
Also got in trouble from a weedy little ingrate today-spend all this time trying to help, advise, rectify, and then get roused on for not being paitent with his petulance? Whatever ... do have other things to be doing ... nails? hair? whatever ...
Naturally this happened as the coffee seeped through my system must have echoed in situ? Because earlier a woman was almost in tears in gratitude for what I did for her, resolving her situation, settling her ruffled feathers, calming the stormy teacup ...
Welcome to Friday :) day begins afresh, the w/e beckons, and all I worry about is fitting it all together - rough life, hey?
