I decided to have one last look at my Twitter feed before I went to bed and there it was; a link to the last blog post written by Jessica Redfield, one of the victims of the Aurora Colorado theatre shooting.
It was an impactful read. Apparently, a little over two weeks ago, she walked out of a crowded food court literally minutes before a... Read More
It's a very 'snap' thought. The realization that this happens, this could happen to you or a loved one. It brings everything into a very real perspective. One that most don't think of, that most don't want to think of as it raises a very real fear inside of us. It makes us wonder how any of us could go out and face each day instead of cowering in a corner waiting for the inevitable.
I choose to go out and face everyday because you don't know when it will be yours, or someone you loves' last day. What will be out there one day and gone the next.
My girlfriend (and some dear friends of ours) flew out today for an epic roadtrip across nearly 10,000 km (6100+ miles) of your country.
Unfortunately, due to complications and naivety, I wasn't able to arrange a visa in time. So I'm still here in suburban Brisbane while they set out to see and do some amazing things.

My face is aching and I have a killer headache. I'm not due for more painkillers for another three-and-a-half hours.

Ehhhhhhhhhh your blogs never make any sense (I never really give them a chance, granted, BUT it's because they always start with something that makes me completely lose concentration.) Glad to see that not much has changed around here
I haven't been posting here (or anywhere really) as I've been feeling pretty apathetic towards everything over the last few months. I've been pretty dissatisfied with my life and it's been manifesting in a lethargy that I'm I'm getting tired of suffering under.... Read More
I'm coming to the realisation that, with the government's ever increasing introduction of draconian, freedom-eroding laws (esp the recent ban on small breasts and squirting in porn and the mandatory Internet filter) combined with my complete inability to sit-down-shut-the-fuck-up-and-do-what-I'm-told, I'm probably going to spend some time in a federally funded holiday home at some undefined point in the future.
For those of you who haven't yet noticed, my mini bar sentence (the one beside our usernames) has been synced to my Twitter account.
I know this is going to annoy some people, but I update here so rarely that I figure this was a way I can at least have some current input in this account.
