Currently extra-ing on a short film for a friend, attempting to look busy.

Thinking about life.

Over thinking about life.

There is some regret over yesterday’s post. Everyone I told about it has either said nothing or been supportive, which is a good thing, I guess. Mostly I just feel like I was a bit too… Well… Honest. I’m a private person with no real desire to be open, so to have a massive essay detailing personal struggles when I wasn’t really someone who liked that sort of thing is very, very disconcerting.

Let’s talk about something else.

Yesterday – after awkward blogging – I made chili con carne. It was pretty amazing, but the serving I made for myself ended up being around five times bigger than I could possibly eat. The bright side is I now have three lunches over the next week sorted, which cuts down on Macca’s.

On that note (?) my friend is using a gib in her shoot. It’s fairly cool, and I hope we get to use it in our show (story for another time).

I really want my gum right now, but the camera’s rolling and my bag isn’t with me. I’m supposed to be in a cafe and I don’t want to draw attention by getting up.

After this shoot wraps I’m gonna go to the library and write an essay about remediation for an hour or so, then I’m gonna go up to Queen Victoria Market and locate and purchase a nice pineapple. You see, when I don’t know what to give someone for their birthday, I give them something they obviously don’t want, I.e. a pineapple. This friend would probably appreciate it though. Issue is, pineapples always get their leaves hacked off in supermarkets and fruit stalls, and a headless pineapple is a lousy gift. I have to find a pretty one.

I have to attend two parties tonight: pineapple girl’s Twin Peaks-themes birthday bash and the wrap party for Live on Bowen at the Wilde. Why people have parties on Sunday is beyond me.

Oh wait: the election. That’s depressing. I mean… Tony Abbott? Really? No, just no. He’s an idiot who does not deserve to be the supposed leader of this country. As I said with a friend last night, they were both bad decisions but Rudd was just bad taste, while Abbott is a cry for help. Interestingly, he’s also cut $4.5 billion from foreign aid.

Not gonna rant. I think my time at the shoot is done. Gonna go now.
