well, lookee here

we finally have internet connection after 3 weeks back. i've been through my emails, and my mind turns to all things internetty.

but really, i think i might just go and read in bed.

i promise to catch up on the trip, there is much to tell, my friends. and, yes, there are photos, 6,000 of them. for real.

i also promise a return to bad '80s journalling - it's an easy way of blogging but there is still so much fodder there.

as for us, in the here and now, we are back in groovy-town, in the good old secret life of them flat. it's nice to be back. i was just kidding myself i think when i said i liked living in the suburb named after a european car. here i can get the best bread, and coffee, and walk around the lake and see my pelicans and ducks, the gigi is spreading her love around the hood, i swear there were people lining up on acland street a couple of sundays ago to talk to me. about her. about my dog.

men check her out before they do me. or even instead of me.

heh, it's good to be back.

and there is the smell of hope in the air, things are different, a certain short-statured shit has left the office, has gone to the golf course, and things are happening, things that i had despaired of ever happening.

that feels good.

oh, and how are you?

Wow it is so nice that you're back. I have missed you terribly.

A very Merry Christmas and absolutely awesome New Year is warmly wished to you and yours.

Are you really in the Secret Life of Us, block? If so - sweet!

All the best to you for Christmas and the New Year, lovely lady.

You never know how much you miss it until you don't have it.

no it's not THE secret life of us flat. it's MY secret life of us flat. in st. kilda. it's called that, an old joke, because while the flat fits the show, the people living in it don't, hence "the secret life of them". weak joke i know.

BUT IT'S A ROCKING FLAT!

yes sub do visit. lola is not here, she be in storage. but i can tempt you with the gigi and martinis??

you too miss ro-ro if you are ever down this way. and inc. and fam of course. possibly rick but i don't know him and would have to "know" him for a year or so before we eye-ball. but adam, no, you aren't invited.

happy new year everyone. post soon. god i'm slack.
