So, the weekend just gone was pure evil for heat. My place it hit 44 degrees both days. The eastern hills corridor went up in flames. Sad because I used to work and live there in the community and I know a lot of people affected. Some have nothing left as their houses got vapourized by the fire. Old friends, colleagues and clients. Fortunately no lives lost as far as I know.
Also a patch of bush land in the western suburbs went up in flames. My workplace is there. Today I saw just how close the flames got to destroying the buildings. The scorched earth got to within a meter at some points. The only reason it was saved is because, a) epic fire fighters, and, b) the wind swung around at the last minute. I say the finger of "god" pointed down if you believe in that thing. I told the bosses it was a warning to stop being wankers. The place stinks and looks like a nuclear bomb went off. Absolutely miraculous that all the buildings are still standing. there is one photo, (which sadly I do not have), of a little shed still standing, in the middle of acres and acres of scorched bush.
Tuesday night my friend and his Mrs took me for a spin in their new toy. A 40 year old stretch Jag limo. I got shit faced and ditched work the next day hungover hahaha. I am spoilt. And very naughty.
The male and I had a VERY awkward coffee meet up on monday. We haven't spoken since. I am adamant if he doesn't ask me on a "date like event", (whatever they are), he can get stuffed. HEheh. Wanker.
Rehearsal this Sunday with another band. I am playing bass in a punk outfit. Might quit the other band if this is as good as I hope it will be. :)
I can hear a raven on the tin outside. I started giving them little treats. They are way too bloody smart ! They are training me ! I get a few come in every afternoon now.... dancing on the tin.... going "AARARRRRkkkkk ARkkkkk AARRKKkkkKKK arrrkkkk".
Speaking of which, it is HUMAN snack time. Bloody animals.
