My Day.
Today was a lazy day, I spent the morning sleeping and then spent the afternoon fretting about the best way to handle a job interview for a volunteer position at the State Library I have tomorrow. I've haven't had to do a job interview in almost fifteen years(last one was in 1999) and I'm really really out of practise ( Read more... )

High Concept.
I was on a train going somewhere between a rich part of Europe and a poorer part of Europe, the tracks below me growing less certain of themselves with every hour towards my destination. I'd promised myself I was going to avoid drinking this time after the last trip wherein I was cursed by a gypsy for attempting to molest his goat ( Read more... )

I'm hoping to write something after I get back from Soccer.
I think the tradition of never finishing this stupid story is going to haunt me for a long time. I'll see how I'm feeling when I get back.

My Day.
My day was pretty dull, I got up super early and then had to drive my brothers van back to his place with my bike in the back so I could ride ( Read more... )

I've visited a lot of libraries around the world, I've been to them, used them and I've found them to be pretty good on average. I've talked to a few people who've worked in libraries and schools around the world as well and they usually mention how different libraries in Australia are in some ways to libraries in other countries ( Read more... )

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was a game which came out in 2009 and cost an estimated $250 million to get to market. It made double that in just five days. The numbers are just staggering when it comes to gaming and money and this is very likely to have an impact on what entertainment options people are going to be using in the future ( Read more... )

As I mentioned a few days ago I use 4chan pretty regularly and have been witness to a lot of the shenanigans which the site is famous for over the last few years ( Read more... )

Sorry this is so late/early in the morning. I've been actually getting to sleep at the right time of day for the last three days and I usually write between 10pm and midnight. Given the options I'd rather go back to a regular sleep pattern than write on time because a regular sleep pattern means I can actually do human things like go out and buy ( Read more... )

Sorry this is so late, I went to bed early to try and watch the World Cup game between Australia and Spain. I kind of wish I hadn't now.
Technology and Travel.
I try to avoid technology when I travel, mostly because I've been in places where you can't get electricity or internet just enough times to know not to rely on it ( Read more... )

Getting Glassed.
His best friend used to make money from stealing glasses from boutique bars, he'd sell them at the markets on the weekends for about $15 a glass, this would usually give him enough money to go drinking later and start the process again. He was unusually attached to the glasses while he was drunk typically going to extreme lengths to ( Read more... )

Going to have to write this tomorrow because I'm exhausted right now and need sleep.

My Day.
I had a great day today, great except for the fact that I'm exhausted right now and just woke myself up at 11:50 to write a blog post just so I don't miss out on todays post. My day kind of started at 7am when I got a phone call from my brothers carer for ( Read more... )
