First we feel, then we fall... I done me best when I was let
I have to say... in the global sense, 2016 is a bloody writeoff. What a horrible year. Watching the footage from Nice and then the footage from the coup in Turkey. It feels like the whole world's just falling apart, and being documented by smart phone video in the process.
Sally is away again so it's back to #bachelorlyfe for me. She's gone back to Mudgee to spend time with her family and work in the wineries. She had her first day's work and she loved it, so that's good.
Went to the rugby last night with my friend Rach. We had way too much beer and afterwards ended up in a strip club where Rach got a backroom lap dance with an extremely attractive stripper. I've known her for seven years and had no idea she bats for both teams, so to speak. There's nowt queer as folk, if you'll pardon the pun.
Today I got an invitation to attend a wedding in Poland. I think we will go as I've never been to Poland.
Trailwalker was actually pretty good. As good as a 60km hike in 13 hours can be. My feet were bloody sore by the end of it but it was orders of magnitude less shit than the 100km Trailwalker I did in 2011.
I really hate work because nothing's happening and recently I have spent entire days where I just sit on the Internet all day and done no work whatsoever. Sally is trying to get us both a job at a new silver mine in Mudgee, which would obviously involve moving there. I'm not sure I want to do that, but she's so bloody committed to the idea I don't know how I'm going to avoid it. Even if she doesn't get this job she'll keep trying.
Other than that I am not really doing very much with my life. I was thinking about signing up for a climb in the Himalayas, probably Island Peak, but I haven't got around to it yet. I don't know whether I will.
I want to get back into reading Finnegans Wake. I only got to the end of Chapter 4, and there are 17 chapters. It's just SO. MUCH. EFFORT. But I've been reading bits of it and it's just so beautiful when you actually work out what you're reading.
