Late.

I know I'm late for work when I'm walking on the main street before 8:30 and there are people eating Pho. Smells dope though. New word- dope.

Hi. I'm visiting, p.s i'm a giant.

Quick exerpt of my quick visit:

Touchdown after a long day, walked a trillion metres along a silver sheltered covering which led to a cage. No joke, a chicken pen. Waited 20 minutes before I saw my beloved luggage. Was slightly amused at the thought that the airline had lost my bag, and I daydreamed about improvised clothes, like a singlet from an enviro shopping bag - if I cut the seams, it will turn out to be a smashing enviro friendly singlet. Or .. go commando. Like how the Egyptians do.

Friday - Was ultimately one of the best days.

Walked along Flinders lane, to find Yu-u. 120 minutes later, we found a miniature Alice in wonderland door embedded the wall. "Set lunch only, all sold". Bitch. I'm HUNGRY! Who hides such a rad restaurant in a wall?
Walked back the other way to find a Japanese restaurant, only to find out it was run by Chinese kids. Jipped. Random day, random laughter. I missed my big brother.

Picked up a few things, cute miss sixty's, rad transformers neckchain, suspender shirt, black kimono work skirt. Radical sales rep, wanted to be her best friend, but didn't want to freak her out. Dangerfield visit. and a few other random things. Shopping bag paper cut, broken shopping bag. Carrying empty broken shopping bag with paper cut. Had to throw away broken paper bag :(. Still have paper cut. I miss you shopping bag, you were really funky looking.

Night followed with awesome dancing, new friends and good times. Ps. yes, I am a giant. Mostly new friends spoke to my chest rather than my face, and photos consisted of new friends going for the arse rather than around the waist for a friendly photo snap pose. Nonetheless, was a smashing night. Night ended with propping up brother's pixie girlfriend, on a freeway strip.

Saturday, hangover. Cute brekkie with the boys. Adrian, Ryan and Aaron. Consisted of spaghetti on Ryans face, Aaron scoffing down eggs, and cute Adrian trying to impress me with his backwash. Shopping. Sat night, dinner with new friends. Classy. Still a giant. Note to self, do not wear heels unless wanted to be called a giant.

Sunday, Chapel st. Somewhat overrated. Binge shopped. Fun while it lasted. Sunday night bbq. Sweet. Wore brother's shirt that I brought from home. New friends recognised it. Fail. Masterchef finals. Julie. Fair enough. Quail eggs. Asian. Meegoreng. Nice.

Got a few sketches done in Melbourne, was hoping for more. Maybe next time. Soon.

e-mail

Thought I'd share this moment with you. I sent this email to my senior, because he is the raddest.

"Hi Bob*

Last friday, Carol* (director) and I.. we were appreciating how awesome your brain was when you had them radical insights.
I said I agreed, and she said you were a real asset, and I said, like.. on the balance sheet.
Then there was an awkward moment.
Then I looked into her eyes and whispered I loved her.
Then it was weird.

I lied.
But she really did say that you were awesome, and a real asset. I made the rest up, because nope, im really not that cool.

keep it up BOB*CHAPMANIARIATIA. "

Lucky?

Hi,
I decided to go get some greasy noodles for lunch, and on the way back, an Indian man came right up to me, raised he's curry thumb within the vicinity of the bridge of my nose, and told me I had a lucky face?!
He asked me .. "do you know why"
I said, "cause I'm rad??!" and then I ran away because was scared he would steal my greasy noodles.
So I semi galloped back to work thinking I was lucky, but I semi slipped on the pavement, and heel got stuck in a ditch. Lucky much? period.

While I was trying to get heel out of dirty ditch, I pictured indian man saying odd things..

like.. "do you like ma booody", so very wrong. He had a hairy chest. period.
