Melbourne, I love you but you’re bringing me down (part 1) Part #1 of my grumblings about the city I love. I went to see the brilliant Handsome Furs last week. They had so much energy and were genuinely appreciative of how many people came along. What really bugged me is the amount of people who just stood there, not willing to engage, move or seemingly have fun (presumably because it is not the done thing on ‘the scene’). Now I know not everyone is a dancer, but it seems like Melbournites are too cool to to enjoy themselves. Perhaps they could take a leaf out of the two coolest people in the room’s book (the people on stage) and let loose and have some fun for once. image ryan muir

Brother Baba Budan

I am lucky enough to live in a city (Melbourne) where coffee is king. Brother Baba Budan (and it’s sister cafe St Ali) are up there as the finest establishments in town. If you want a guaranteed hit of perfection, or to pick up some beans for home, make the journey.

I am sure if I had a boss this would piss me off big time.

The evidence keeps piling up

I was quite amazed at the reation by some of my friends when I deactivated (cause you can’t delete!) my Facebook account in December. They couldn’t quite believe how I could exist without it (seems to be working well so far).

Apart from wasting a lot of time and seeing things I really didn’t want/care to see, the idea that there is so much info about yourself that you have no control over seemed a little crazy. I am well aware that if someone wants to find something out about me that they could quite easily if they have the nouse - I just figure you need to make it at least a little bit of a challenge.

Finished watching season 2 of the brilliant Mad Men last week. Man I hate having to wait 6 months for new episodes. The last 6 or 7 years has been an incredible time for television drama in my opinion. As soon as I think a show can’t be topped, another one comes along to knock your socks off.
