public service announcement...
...yup! still alive...just not blogging! This is cos at the aforementioned NEW JOB they have an internet policy that doesn't permit hours of blogging & mucking around on the net like at the old job...so it looks as tho' dotdotdot may be relegated to occasional hometime posts utilising cutting edge dial-up technology...& this horrible laptop which I can't seem to type on very well...anyhow new job is good except when i have to ask some computer-related question for the millionth time....sheesh! Went out to the tiny town of Emmaville (look it up!) near Glen Innes this week...the Tattersalls Hotel there is a bargain at $20/night...& features the saggiest 1950's type mattress I've ever sampled...yes, we are talking horeshair stuffing here I kid you not...cold showers are another delightful feature...I felt like I was in India!
Cah...feeling too lazy to type more...felt mildly inspired 5 minutes ago...a list of good shit follows:
- seeing pair of beach-stone curlews on beach today...one of 20 pairs left in NSW
- Mcluskyism comp triple CD...yeah this is 10 months old but so what! Why are they so great? Why did they break up? Snif...I am listening now nice & loud...furious stuff indeedy!
- Darren Hanlon was good live at Byron last week, but lacked a drummer. Drummers are a good thing & their absence is felt most keenly. Yes, I was peeved...but even then he still tricked me into getting his new album, which J hates & I admit has a few insipid Ben Lee (shudder)-type moments
- holiday at Woody Head campground with J & The Kid...Kid joins BMX bike gang & has never been the same
- 'The Diviners' by Rick Moody is a great book...probably all his stuff is...I recommend heartily...
BTW...beware of Lindt caramel crunch chocolate...it produces feelings of nausea & over-indulgence after a mere 4 pieces, as I have just found out...errgghhhh.........
....sleep beckons. out.
