Update on dad

So I definitely have to stay until Friday at my parents place.  I don't want to, but I will.  I promised my mum I'd be here for her, so that's what I'm doing.  My mum's a mess, and she hates bei...

Taiwan part 2

I can say I've experienced my first typhoon.  It wasn't anything to worry about in the end, but the anticipation was pretty scary.  I was comforted by the fact that Taipei is surrounded by m...

Taiwan part 1

I made it to Taipei.  I've been here... five days now?  Yeah that sounds about right, and it's been lovely.  The people have been lovely and mostly keep to themselves, despite being such a bust...

Get on that plane

I feel like I should have a spell-book or my own witches cauldron with the amount of shit I'm consuming to try and help myself lol.  The spellbook can be my library of self-help books and the ...

Psychosomatic

So, with the apartment we are renting being sold, and the seller wanting to drag prospective buyers through, my housemate and I are considering getting our respective sex-toys and laying them...

Family BBQ

The disassociation/derealisation is real today. Probably the absolute worst symptom of the anxiety, in my opinion. Thoughts I can deal with, eventually, but this shit makes me feel like I’m no...

Socialising

I’ve actually been doing a bit of socializing, which has been so unlike me lately, But it’s what I need to do to kick this anxiety-bitch off it’s perch. It seems to be treating me good. I feel...

Miss Rona 2.0

The bitch is back. Somehow, I went to work today. It wasn’t an easy decision, by any means. I could have called in sick, but I didn’t. The policy is to work if we don’t have bad symptoms. Min...


Well what a wild ride that was lol. I ended up desserting the tent and escaped to the car in the carpark during a brief break in the wild weather. The lightning was insane. I could hear other c...

Fuck 2023

I’m going to write an entry on the last day of 2023 here in Australia, because I’m currently in an interesting situation. Somewhat dangerous lol. I ummed and ahhed about attending Tropical Frui...

Merry Christmas

I ended up having a pretty alright Christmas, considering I didn’t have any plans for it. There was a message on my phone from Andrew saying, “Lemonade ready at 1:30pm!”, so I guess that meant I...

Here's to 40

The birthday dinner went pretty well. I had a decent time. There were only 8 of us there, so I was right that about half the amount I invited would show. It woud have been 10, but Ben announced...

Knocking on Death's door

Today hasn’t been fun. I actually put on my work clothes and had my bag ready to go to work, when I realised I was feeling queasy. I wasn’t gonna be able to get through this shift if I went in. ...


I’m going to write another entry, just incase I die in the next few hours/days. I joke, but not really as well. Last night was a very warm night and I was having trouble sleeping. Or rather, my...

The Voice

Moe’s birthday dinner went well. I had intended to try and leave work right on time so I could make it there on time, but of course it was chaos and that didn’t end up happening. I texted the ...

Here we go again

I have another 47hr workweek ahead of me. For someone who usually works part-time, this is rough, gurrrrl. But horrid-week was last week and now it seems to be ironing out the rest of the shit ...

Matteo

I went to the Matteo Lane gig last night - Italian/Mexican comedian from NYC, for those who don’t know. As he is a gay man, the entirety of gay Brisbane was in attendance. These events seem to ...

Byron bitch

My third day in Byron was rather boring, as I only had to kill time between checking out at 10am and my bus at 4pm, so I wandered around for far too long, and looked up the movie times to see if ...

Lennox Head/Byron Day 1

I have done absolutely nothing today, literally. I guess that’s what I’m meant to do on a mini vacay. I caught the train down to the Gold Coast, but freaked out when the train got to Beeneligh ...

Meth vagina

We had a “customer” (I say that lightly because she tried to walk out with hundreds of dollars of stolen goods) in tonight who was so off her face. She was wearing only a skirt but had no underw...

Bomb scare

Some wanker phoned in a bomb-threat to my work late yesterday afternoon. I had about a half-hour of my shift to go when my manager came up to me and quietly told me. At first I didn’t hear him,...


So… A LOT has happened since I last wrote. Crazy. I had to go back and see what I last wrote. Anyway, I’ll try and keep it short but I feel like I’ve been on a journey and a half since the la...

World Pride part 1

Oh God, I couldn’t sleep at ALL last night. Andrew closes everything up, including the blinds, wheras I’m used to fresh air and waking up to natural light. So he got home after me and shut ever...

Melbs Part 2

The second half of the Melbourne trip went quicker than the first half. Whether that’s because I’d adapted a little to the sun at night or if it’s because I was actually having fun, I’m not sure...

Melbs part 1

I feel like I’ve been in Melbourne for a week already, but it’s only been three days. It’s because of the really long days, I believe. Or at least it feels that way to me. There is about an ho...
