here we go again

This morning Brendan and I cleaned the remnants of my San Francisco shot glass out of the garbage disposal. This was the replacement for a previous San Francisco shot glass that met its demise off of the edge of a kitchen table during a rousing game of quarters. I don't know what it is about the combination of San Francisco, shot glass and me that does not work (it all seems so perfect!), but if that is the only thing we lose during this move, I will be very happy. Oh yeah, we're moving. Internationally. Again. Cue the Benny Hill theme...

As of Christmas 2010, Brendan and I will be stretched out over 3 countries and 1 ocean. How cool/scary/ridiculous is that?!?

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 ... Closing thought that is completely unrelated: my current career is cool. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6471241.stm

i saw a 'roo!

Brendan and his parents came out to visit last weekend, which was fantastic! I love it when I have people to hang out with in this country!! Saturday, I attempted driving for my second time to go to the airport and pick them up. Crazy right-sided driving on the left side of the road. Still incredibly difficult! I must have let my guard down a bit though b/c I got honked at more this time than last. I also got a pretty good piece of a curb (I hope Mark doesn't read this...). It also didn't help that on the way back from the airport, we had 4 people and 8 suitcases in one car. Brendan decided to use his parents as luggage mules, so that we don't have to ship our toys via the boat. I have no idea how I am going to move out of my serviced apartment by myself now based on the amount of stuff in there... Saturday we went to a few house inspections (Fitzroy) and then wandered through QVM and the CBD. We saw Fed Square, the Yarra River, the Docklands... we had beer and coffee spora...

Big news

I am officially a terrible blogger. Lots of stuff has happened since my last post: - I downloaded the photos from gliding, but I didn't bother to post any (I'm still planning on doing this) - I've been working (a lot) - Brendan came for another visit. We drank and ate and listened to music and just generally caught up. It was lovely. - I've seen more varieties of Australian spiders in my apartment than I knew existed. - I've given up my no drinking alone policy (largely because of the above item) - I've finalized my latest two conference papers And...drum roll, please... - my NZ visa was approved! My next adventure is near.
