trifecta!

Three things will inevitably happen when my partner goes out of town:

1. Something will break (such as our internet network) that I have no chance of fixing;
2. I will receive a package that I have absolutely no chance of picking up from the Post due to their ridiculous (9am to 4pm) business hours; and
3. I will get sick.

The booze trifecta (beer, wine and spirits all in one night) is far more interesting.

I know how you feel with the internet. I am useless with that stuff. Go for the booze trifecta to try and kick the others. I hear brandy kills any illness.

Australia is...

beautiful extreme (google: 'Australia & poisonous'; image search: 'Australia & outback') unique from any place i've ever seen similar to every place i've ever seen simple and laid back difficult and uptight lonely eye-opening ...

turkey day in Oz - one day late

Brendan and I decided to attempt to cook a Thanksgiving meal with our minimal cookware in Australia (no, we still have not gotten our furniture). It was one day late because we opted to go out for drinks with some friends on Thursday. So, on Friday in 3 pots and 1 pan, we managed to make a feast of chicken (turkeys are too expensive here!), stuffing, sweet potatoes, green beans, gravy, and apple pie. The source of some of the food was a bit dodgy, but dammit it tasted good (the secret was lots of butter and Sara Lee pie). Brendan carving the chicken, our serving platter, and our feast on our dining room table. We also used the good china.

i love big machines

I am not a huge fan of on-line Christmas shopping, but I have to admit that Amazon has made my life pretty easy today. It also amused me by knowing me so well...
