best & worst
The high point of my evening is finding a Guzman y Gomez loyalty card with 10 stamps entitling me to a free burrito. The low point is deciding to drink a warm Tsingtao for dinner instead. ¡Adios!

Hommage à la Vie
C’est beau d’avoir élu
Domicile vivant
Et de loger le temps
Dans un coeur continu,
Et d’avoir vu ses mains
Se poser sur le monde
Comme sur une pomme
Dans un petit jardin,
D’avoir aimé la terre,
La lune et le soleil,
Comme des familiers
Qui n’ont pas leurs pareils,
Et d’avoir confié
Le monde à sa mémoire
Comme un clair cavalier
A sa monture noire,
D’avoir...

“Wha-happened?”
– Do smart people ever get tired of always knowing everything? Because I sure-as-hell am sick of getting it wrong.
If ignorance requires no effort, how is it that I’m so tired of being stupid!?

the night before...
… my Statistics exam and I have come up with some final notes -
I can’t remember things that aren’t personally meaningful (i.e. the stuff I don’t get).
I don’t get statistics.
Therefore, I will not be able to rote learn Advanced Statistics in a one-night-cramming session.
If I am to undertake this exam I cannot be sober.
If I am not sober I am either drunk or...

underwhelmed and underfed
Well, that rounds up the Festival of Mildly Provocative Ideas. Watching Zizek speak between a sword-swallower and some witless bogan-bashing was a kind of perverse and degrading (i.e. entertaining) display of his brilliance and orginality.
Amid the dreary debate and the un-illuminating moral instruction of Saffran Foer, highlights were the awkward confrontation of our cultural elitism by Ronson...

MacFunny
For those who know me will know that I have a fondness for fast-food and it doesn’t get any faster than a pre-7-am-flight-out-of-Sydney-Domestic MacDonalds fry-up. Confronted with the bewildering number of ‘combination options’ (essentially 3-5 menu items packaged in ‘meals’) I asked for the -

ants in your pants
My laptop is infested. INFESTED! Not with the kind of bugs that plague computers running Windows Vista but real, live ants.
Rewind to several days ago…

treasure trove found in the trash-can
Why did I tell Gmail to direct Fairfax updates straight into the Spam-can? Only now do I realise it’s 3 weeks to the City-to-Surf. I lost track of time (as per usual), so now I really have to start making a last minute effort to get ready.
Things to do :
Look up the course, start times and areas.
Update Nike Running App on the iPhone. The whole thing has been buggy as hell.
Go...

This ship has sailed.
Forget about us, you need to fix yourself!
We can’t go on like this.
I know that you don’t love me anymore.
I take back everything I said, please delete my emails (Facebook message).
This is just no fun.
I’ve got therapy but there’s no cure for being a deadset arsehole.
NEVER CALL ME AGAIN. (SMS)
I hope the memory of her wonderfulness keeps...
