updateliness
| It's been a pretty mad week. I've been sleeping on a mattress on the floor surrounded by boxes and piles of clothes, getting used to the new sounds (construction of tramlines at 4am), the new smells (um, pee, anyone?) and the new flavours of having the market within walking distance. I still feel like I'm on school camp, all ready for pranks and hijinks and iniquitous acts. Thus far, my little office-grotto has been adorned with lashings of green paint, swathes of fabric pinned up on the walls, a curtain rail for the hanging of my finery, and my most prized possessions (books, sewing machine, various photos, boxes of lace, ribbon and buttons). It's beginning to feel like a place I like to hang out in, if not completely home yet. So far we have climbed up to the roof, 10 floors up, and explored the penthouse suite of our office block, dominated the rooftop and the pump room and asserted our sovereignty over the Adelaide skyline. I am so keen to get started on some sewing again, but at the moment my room is too disorganised and I have too much other stuff to think about. Half my stuff is still at my dad's place, along with my more specialised sewing accoutrements. Also, not having readily available internet cuts me off from so much inspiration. Okay, an angry rabble of footy fans is approaching down the mall, so I am going to beat a hasty retreat from... .... wow. it's a crowd of emos dressed as zombies, all chanting 'Jesus was a Zombie'. Mine is not to reason why. I'm going home, folks. |
