So it’s been a week since I last posted. What’s happened during this 7 days, 168 hours, 10080 minutes and massive amount of seconds.
Monday: after suffering through an incredibly hot day (around 36 degrees) I raced off to play tennis for the first time in 5 years. Once the sun went down it was a really nice night. I’ve learnt that I still suck at tennis but it was great to have a run around again.
Tuesday: I spent the night at a yelp event with my friends. Great night. We drank these whiskey cocktails:
And ate these delicious chicken in leaves.
It made me quite sad for the fact that I’m not living in the city or remotely close anymore. It was a long train ride home.
Wednesday: caught up with some twitter friends and an interstate new twitter friend. Starting to feel a little sickly by this stage.
On the train ride home, I had my first really bad experience on the Franga line. Only 8.30 at night, two guys decided that smoking and drinking on the train were the things to do. And then by Parkdale were getting quite agitated and loud. This is when one of them proclaimed to be mentally unstable, shouldn’t be out on public and were off their medication. So this is when I hightailed it out of there and switched carriages.
Says a lot for the state of our transport system when there is nobody there to protect the commuters.
Thursday: sick, sick, sick. Throat swollen, tonsels swollen, pain, shivers, sneezing and shaking. And I had a rather important meeting. So swallow some cold and flu tablets. These switched off the symptoms long enough to get into the office, only to have my meeting cancelled 2 minutes after arriving in the office. Awesome. Pretty much turned back around and went home.
Melbourne was going through a heat wave and the storms were trying to roll in. A lack of punch made for an amazing sunset.
Thursday nights sunset though
Friday/ Saturday and Sunday.
Sick and hot. That is it. Exciting hey.
Rockin' the suburbs
