and this little piggy had breakfast...in Melbourne!
Eating in Melbourne is fun. I'm in the right part of town for being able to stumble upon any number of cafes, bars and/or restaurants. My roomie, Fox, is showing me the lay of the edible land with sides of bars and tram lessons which is making my assimilation into my new home so much easier than if I were stumbling about here on my own. She was also kind enough to invite me to her work Friday drinks and let me wear her Easter Bunny ears which I forgot I was wearing so by the time the woman at the wine tasting evening we later went to said "nice ears" i tugged on my own ear lobes wondering why she'd said that to me.
The Melbourne sky has been so blue and big - Autumn is such a wonderful season with it's mild temperatures and beautiful colours. This was a very good time of year to start this adventure, I think - good thinking Batman!
Eroica's here too, and while she's living way across the other side of town at the moment, will be flatting a lot closer very soon. We've both decided that Tuesday is "job day" and we'll get more organised/active in seeking employment, but right now sitting here on a red sofa with coffee and hotcross buns, it's very hard to imagine I'll ever work again and this wonderful sense of holiday would be a much better state to maintain.
Last night, Fox and I went to a one man show by Charles Ross where he re-enacted the Star Wars trilogy in an hilarious one hour show at the Forum. I loved his Princess Leia best - a snippet via YouTube:
(I kinda have a lot to say but not finding it easy to say anything but felt I had to put something between the photo of my breakfast and that of the dead seagull)
