So I got the early afternoon flight from Brissy to Canberra this afternoon. (Took the afternoon off work). It was soooo good flying into my hometown and being able to see it (unlike my usual evening flight that arrives after dark).

The cab driver (who took me from the house in Bris to the airport) was pretty cool. He was a high-flier in the corporate world, lots of hours, stress, money, etc, etc, and quit that to become a cabbie. Apparently on a flight from Hong Kong to London, the plane that he was on got struck by lightning.... Apparently gave an awful fright. Yikes.... This was as there was plenty of rain hanging around the airport. He was from Sydney, and had been to Canberra a fair bit. We were in agreement that Brisbane weather is very bland compared to Canberra.

Anyhow, the flight was boring. As usual. But this is a good thing, I reckon. Better that than one which crashes or something. And there were no detours via Melbourne. I entertained myself on the flight by sleeping and listening to music. Also, because I'm a nerd, (and have my music with me), I practiced the fingerings / timings of the really hard piece of music that my new band - QWAB - is playing. Ohh, my theory about Velocity members getting better seats is wrong. I was in 15C today. So there's something else... Inspector P is on the case [that used to rhyme before I edited this post to get rid of my surname].

Ohhh, I'm going to have a fairly significant bill when my credit card is next due... Cheyenne got all fixed up yesterday and today, but is nice and smooth now. Nice.

It sooo good being home again. I love it here. I just wish my work, Brisbane friends, bands, etc could all be down here.

In other news (that will shock everyone except two people in this world, neither, I think, read this site), I'm somewhat confused by the messages I'm getting since Saturday... Although part of my problem is that I need to make the first step... So, now, when do I ring her?
