Some photos
Just some photos from the past few days. This was inside the nursery I went to on Monday with the housemate to get a new outfit (pot) for his plant Yesterday I caught up with Alex on the Gold Co...
Eurovision: Australia Decides
So THAT was pretty cool! Mind you, getting there was the drama I predicted it to be. I managed to finish work, get home, shower and leave again straight away. So it would have been like 4pm. T...
Post-moving and 'Straya Day! (pics)
When did I write last? I’ve lost all track of time with how fast everything has happened with the move. Crazy. I had my first night here on Tuesday night on an air mattress, as I had my bed loa...
I got the keys, keys, keys
Just a quick entry, because I am run off my feet. We got the keys today! Holy fuck. We got the keys. so far today, I’ve met up with Phil to sign and witness each others forms, confirmed with the...
Tropical Fruits 2018 (plus pics)
(Fair warning, this is a huuuge entry and all over the place lol) My God, I’ve literally had zero time to write anything. Plus I was in the middle of nowhere over New Years so yeah. I caught the...
Christmas 2018
I’m at my parents place in Pittsworth. I caught the bus down on Sunday evening after work to Toowoomba and they picked me up from there, you know, since transport doesn’t go any further than th...
More inspections
I’ve so far inspected 5 different places, all with pros and cons (that I can see). It’s kind of exciting but I get nervous before each inspection. The leasing agent today was lovely though and ...
Work Xmas party
Tonight was my work Christmas party. I’m home by 12:30am since I have work at 7am, and am being a responsible adult. I also had a lot to drink, and am so fucking tired, but figure writing this ...
Wild Nights Tour
I went to the ‘Wild Nights’ tour on Friday night. Yep, the same day I got home from Perth. It hasn’t stopped for me lately, sheesh! I managed to have a bit of a sleep, since I’d barely slept on...
Perth 3
I’m back home! Again. Back to reality this time though. That’s never a good feeling haha, but oh well. I can honestly say I had an amazing time in Perth and am so glad I went back there after 11...
Perth again
I managed to go for a bit of a walk yesterday, until the clouds came over the river and I got absolutely drenched LOL. Gotta love how I spent an entire month in Europe, with maybe two small burst...
Perth
I’m in Perth! It’s such a nice feeling being here again, as I believe the last time I was here was in 2007, so yeah, eleven years ago. I arrived REALLY late last night, because for some reason, t...
Rest of Europe trip (pics)
I’m back home in Australia! :D Man, that flight back was a doozy. 18.5 hours all up I think. Probably even longer. For some reason, Emirates do a stop-over in Singapore on the way home, but th...
Barcelona & Sitges
When did I last write? Oh yes on the train Anyway, I’m in Rome at the moment. Barcelona was a beautiful city. Sitges was nice and easy to get to. The Magic Fountain was pretty special. The Ry...
Lisbon & Madrid
I’m sorry I haven’t written. I’ve seriously been walking SO much since arriving in Europe and tend to wear myself out by the time I get back to sleep, so I’ve been showering, using wifi to uploa...
Short Goldy trip
The Gold Coast was alright. I wasn’t there long. Of course, Brent got held up at work so I was stuck waiting at the train station, which of course was the exact situation I was in that time that...
Talk to strangers
I went for a walk yesterday to my usual spot on my day off, in Newstead by the river. It seems to have become a routine the last few years. I’ll stop in at the shops, get a snack and go sit and...
Commonwealth Games
It was actually pretty liberating being a spectator at the Commonwealth Games. I’m glad I went. I did end up training and tramming all the way down there and all the way back, only to get up aga...
Easter Day 2018
So my parents place is as boring as usual. I mean, nothing ever changes out in the country. I’m not sure it’s meant to? It’s the same routine each time I’m out there, although this time I need...
Love, Simon
Work was as crazy busy as I predicted. Was very over it and definitely earned the penalty rates today, phew. Didn’t stop. Went to Chermside and caught up with the boys. We were minus Ben this ...
So we're staying now, yeah?
Well, good news in that I think I can still write here, hopefully for good, and not for just now haha. Very thankful to Dan for all his hard work, and looking forward to seeing if Josh will cens...
The diary migration, yet again
I’ve exported all my books on here to text files, so that’s something. I now have two lots of exports - 2004-2013 from OD and from 2013-2018 from here LOL. We don’t have much luck, do we? So afte...
Farewell Prosebox
It’s been lovely here the past 5 years. Hard to believe it’s been that long. This place was a savior in the demise of OpenDiary and I’m very thankful for that. I tend to see the good side of t...
LANY
I went to the LANY concert last night. They’re an indie band from LA (LANY is an acronym for ‘Los Angeles New York’.) I caught the bus there and had to walk a short distance to the venue, which ...
What's been happening
Yikes, seeing Prosebox down earlier on the week reminded me of the End-Of-OD-Days (or EOODD). Nice to have it back! Of course I wanted to write, but couldn’t even fathom writing over on OD (now t...

The things I get up to, that I’m vulnerable enough to share.
