Tra lalalalala ... la

well yes. melbourne was an interesting mixture of grief and shopping. in any case, im now downloading selections from the sound track of Disney's The Little Mermaid. i think this says something.

anyways, there's an hilarious story about me delaying a plane and spending this time with a doped up greyhound. but im tired. and im going camping until wednesday, as of tomorrow. urgh. so there will be a lovely summary prob on thurs.

i say an elephant take a piss, then a dump. two male lions fight over ball, then all the other male lions licked the alphas ass - literally. i saw a gorilla pee down the side of a rock and got a cute keyring at the gift shop of the Melbourne Zoo. sigh. delight.

fare thee well

i am off for melbourne tomorrow on a 6am flight. sigh. its not to be a jovial trip im afraid, its a funeral visit. i hate these things. im so sick of only seeing relatives at funerals or when one of them finds out they have cancer. its quite depressing. i know in long distance familes (its not that far, we're in the same country, but us cursons are not big travellers) its hard to keep contact, but i dunno, im sick of seeing relatives in negative environments.

urgh, i hate raymond. OH WELL THATS JUST PERFECT, i think Dr. Greene is about to die. god friggin dammit.

anyways im not looking forward to this trip at all. the funerals tomorrow afternoon and then we spend saturady in hotel comfort, shopping, seeing movies and eating. pure curson family therapy. i have to wake up at 4am to catch the plane, i doubt its even worth going to sleep.

oh god elizabeths just arrived w the baby .... oh no he's in denial.... he's taking herbs ... dear god. no good at all. he's singing to the child. oh dear. time to change the channel....

ah law and order. hmmm. still a major death theme tho. oh sigh.

so depressing

several upsetting things have occurred in my life in the past 48 hrs, but this is just too much. my bastard parents and the people next door are having two silky oaks chopped down. it just doesnt seem right, these trees worked really hard to survive for many many years (they're really quite large), yet all this hard work ahs prooved pointless as they chose to drop their summer/autum leaves into the humans swimming pool. capital offence. thats how the jacaranda brought it.

im upset becuase when i looked out my windows i used to see trees, now all i see are the friggin neighbors. urgh. i never realised how much i loved foliage and how much i hated the neighbors untill all the trees were gone.

::sigh::

oh and that cruddy book i was reading was depressing. it was about this gay argentinian guy, it was quite boring until he got a cute boyfriend and they were all perfect. so you knew one of them was going to get aids. but they both got aids. it was most upsetting. now im reading a disturbing sci fi from the 50s. ye gadds.

oh dear.

i know people are becoming more blase about the wonder that is modern medicine. I understand that naturapathy and homeopathy are becoming increasingly popular, but this is really going too far.... i mean i realise that this is a developing nation. but still. yikes. it doth offend my sensibilities so.

in the meantime, kylie causes crimes, including rape. i remember watching a documentary once about rock'n'roll in the 1950s. they thought it was causing teenage delinquincy. not that ppls parents were slightly screwed up after living through a war or anything. it was that gosh darned elvis !
