Should I buy the SG magazine, or should I experiment with quiet glowering?
In ther news...
Do you remember when you were too young to like caf, but you drank it so you could feel grown up? Do you remember when you had to grimace because it was so bitter? Did you have to add a singularly disgraceful amount of sugar? Do you remember the first time you burnt your tongue trying to look suave?
I've realised, recently, that I don't. I know there was a time I thought caf was a damn fool thing to put in your mouth on purpose, but I can't recall it for the life of me. And I don't know when I changed.

I started on tea well before I started on coffee because my parents were tea drinkers for preference. I did what I suspect was the usual kid progression: very sweet, very milky tea which gradually got too sweet and milky, so began to have it with less milk and sugar until I arrived at my optimum (black and one). Early high school I had a friend who drank a lot of coffee and I thought "ooh, that sounds interesting". By year 12 I had someone tell me they didn't recognise me without my coffee cup in my hand. I've cut back since then though.
Now, as for the Writers' Centre, it's at Gorman House which is just near Civic at the bottom of Ainslie Avenue (the street that Olims is at the top of, if you know Olims). They have meeting rooms for writers' groups to meet in, workshops, courses, social events, a library, a newsletter with details of markets and competitions and a bunch of other stuff. There are quite a few writers' groups affiliated with it, including a romance writers' group, a spec fic writers' group of which I'm a member, I think there's a crime group now, and a few others. Their site is here.
5am start?!
All of my pets get cranky at me being up before 9am and waking them.. They'd kill me if I was up that early!
