Not a good day to start a livejournal. The car crapped itself ten metres from the driveway last night. The RACV guys says it's the fuel pump. This would be a disaster of lesser dimensions if we hadn't had the radiator and headgasket fixed just this week. All up, this is costing us the price of a good laptop. Maybe it's time to get a new car or win Lotto and buy a large flat in Docklands and never have to drive again.
It's a cold Saturday morning in Melbourne. I'm listening to RU Sirius' podcast, I have the heater up high and my stainless steel Starbucks mug is filled to the brim with sulawesi kalossi coffee which is my all-time favourite bean. Today, we're gonna put the car into the repair place and take it easy. I'm gonna watch my new DVD of Jacques Brel Is Alive And Well And Living In Paris, which I've wanted to own a copy of for a couple of decades. Then maybe veg out with The Life And Death Of Colonel Blimp (Anton Walbrook's speech in that movie always brings a tear to my eye) and maybe... hmmm (pauses to gaze up at the wall of DVDs) Psycho Beach Party just for a change of pace. Give me the simple life.
