Among the various tasks to complete in the next three weeks is a proper good-bye/thank you for our Sydney peeps. So we’ve organized a wee fête for the 13 August. We’ll cater it for nibblies and provide a decent supply of libatiions, but it will be a no frills event. Biensûr.
But if you ever want to determine who among your acquaintances are the shallow, still wrapped by the scene kweens, invite them to a gathering of some significance on a Friday or Saturday night. They’re usualy the ones who don’t RSVP (or even respond), or who say “as of right now that night’s clear.” A ghey way of saying if I get a better offer I’m taking it. Tacky, but what better punishment for the shallow and vapid than to be surrounded by shallowness and vapidity? Lameness is like water: it seeks its own level. Me? Bitter? I’m not bitter...
Yesterday was vague, but I anticipated that. Today I got going on making stuff happen. We’ll pick our moving company this week and do the ruthless pack/purge dry run; ideally they’ll come around the 10th, leaving several days’ wiggle room if needed. I am quite able to deal with necessary stress, but am loathe to create it needlessly. Anything we’re shipping we don’t need in a pared-down life. One specific goal is to shock

And guess what
quetzalcoatl? I’m getting fairly wistful about Oz. So many memories here, many good, fun, memories. Which I’ll write about in the coming weeks.
