So I was off the radar for a week...
I was at Soul Survivor all week, and I’m starting two new jobs this week (which both pay a lot better than café work) so everything is quite interesting. More later. Some photos too.
Funny how a bunch of things resolved themselves,...
Unfortunately, my massively swollen foot was not among them.

I decided to record a list of the 108 apps I have blocked on Facebook. I’m told some of the non-Aussies who read my blog like my accent, so here’s a whole bunch of me talking.
I made my first coffee from beginning to end...
It was pretty shocking to be honest. The shot was good, though it possibly ran a bit fast, but the milk (admittedly my first ever attempt at milk) was shocking. All milk, no foam. According to Chris, who consumed it, with the exception of the lack of foam on his cappuccino, it was quite a nice coffee.

Tonight's meandering...
So tonight I was aimlessly wandering the intarwebs after a productive day. Here is a short sample of what happens when I allow myself to freely wander.
I hit Google Reader and looked back on my starred items to see if there wass anything worth going back to.
I ended up watching a fantastic mash video and then get intrigued by the videos sampled
That lead me to watch Bernard Purdie and his...

Tomorrow is a day of productivity.
It has to be, otherwise I’m going to get swamped. I still have to finish processing the wedding photos and put together a video for Good Friday as well as pulling a three hour shift (thank goodness it isn’t an epic one like they’ve been on my last three days) at the cafe.
Sigh. I also need to keep working on getting a proper job, as my boss at the cafe tells me that my shifts...
Hulk smash.
It’s been one of those days.

Don't be that guy
At the cafe who makes a fuss on receiving his long black about it being too strong. For one, you ordered a long black. Secondly, I’m a coffee snob, but I’m not an ass about it. Lay off. Thirdly, I’m just bringing you your drink, I didn’t make it. Your verbal abuse is misplaced.
I have another 3.5 hours to work.
