Evidently now I’m

Advertiser on phone: So would it be okay to drop by the shop and give you some of this material?
Me: Sure, I’m here Monday to Friday.
Him: How about Tuesday afternoon?
Me: No way! Dude, it’s Melbourne Cup Day!

And with that, I think my Australian transformation is complete. I went from mockery and scorn to actively rescheduling meetings around a HORSE RACE. *sigh* Good grief. Not to mention the fact that I just spent two hours baking peanut butter cookies to give to the printers next door in compensation for all their beer I plan drinking tomorrow…

  1. I, on the other hand celebrate this horse race as the day that pays me shitloads of money. 🙂


Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
