This was (mostly) written last night - around 9 / 10 pm or so - I didn't get a chance to post it until now.
==================================================
I'm tapping away at this on my little sister's PC down in Canberra. I'll explain later...
The last few weeks have been pretty hectic - there have been only two nights when I've just had a normal quietish evening...
I've moved out all of my stuff from Everton Park, into McDowall. There's still furniture and boxes of things in Canberra to deal with. Sigh: I've been waiting to deal with these for some number of months now. A lot of it is in boxes in my parent's garage: it's cheaper to store it all there instead of in a "self storage" mini warehouse / garage thing, that you pay $50 / week or so - way too much. Anyhow, I really do need to get some of my stuff up to Brisbane. It's starting to annoy me (it's been annoying others for a while...).
The new place that I'm in is really cool - really good people. In retrospect, this was probably the most important criteria when I was finding a new place to live. I should have realised that earlier.
We left Brisbane at 4 pm ish yesterday (Wednesday), and arrived in Canberra at around 10 am today. We had a pair of sleeping stops (and were sleeping when the other was driving). But I have been tired throughout today - sleeping for a bit in the hospital. Hopefully there will be good news on that front tomorrow (Friday).
It's interesting how the stress is getting to me: my ear is starting to get slightly dodgy, as is one of my toes: these minor annoyances tend to only crop up when I'm thinking about other things.
I fly back to Brisbane on Monday. It's probably going to be tiring up until then. And it's going to be busy at work next week - there's plenty to do. I don't have an internet connection at home yet. So who knows what will happen here (on this site).
At the moment I'm in what should be renamed the computer room - the other (family) computer is occupied, I'm writing this on the other machine, waiting for the internet connection to become available (no network!). Anyhow, that's life.
