a tuesday road-trip with 3 of the loudest grrls i know..
the butcher bird at tropical fruit world is named 'captain bill' and he can catch a cashew mid-air.
the shop assistant there is called 'beau' and is much less charming than capt. bill. he thinks it's ok to tell us he needs a cold shower after watching us eat an icy-pole, ewww.
we walked out of the car park in nimbin and were immeadiatley offered drugs. kind of takes the 'mission' part out of 'going on a mission', but who cares? ahh the town that the law forgot...
we swam in a cold creek and talked to locals who really ARE all crazy. thanks for the tips about the 'huge eels' and 'snapping turtles'
i locked the keys in the car when we parked at a dam, the gatekeeper drove back 'up the old house' to find some wire for us to break in. his dog only had one eye.
we drove like a train back to bris and passed out, missing taco tuesday and all the delights it holds :(
but it was worth it. i made a resolution that it would be my last slacker day of the month.
i have time now only writing and much coffee...dark days lie ahead....
every day should be a holiday
