The Inkling: August 2010
http://hannahtheinkling.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
I've got a feeling this is going to be one of those days. Tuesday, August 3, 2010. À la recherche du temps perdu (or, Same Same but Different). It's the strangest thing, coming back to a place you once knew so well, after a long stretch of time. The streets, the shops, the bars and restaurants, the faces of the people, the smells and tastes, the air itself - it's all somehow so very familiar, yet brand new. But you don't live here anymore, you. I have found that I. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Lover of bo...

The Inkling: The Muddle-Headed Wombat Playing Beatie Bow in the South
http://hannahtheinkling.blogspot.com/2011/02/muddle-headed-wombat-playing-beatie-bow.html
I've got a feeling this is going to be one of those days. Thursday, February 10, 2011. The Muddle-Headed Wombat Playing Beatie Bow in the South. Shortly after hearing of the death of Ruth Park in December last year I was browsing the bookshelves in a very small second hand store. Tucked in willy nilly on the non-fiction shelf was a battered and well-loved copy of The Harp in the South. Apt, I thought. I do adore the books. But somehow I had never before read The Harp. Change is that some aspects of life ...

The Inkling: An Office
http://hannahtheinkling.blogspot.com/2011/04/office.html
I've got a feeling this is going to be one of those days. Wednesday, April 6, 2011. The tea room encourages us to believe in Peace and Harmony. And teaches us how to respond to a bomb threat. There's a man three cubicles over who I have never met. He speaks very loudly on the phone and calls everyone by their first name repeatedly. He says things like, "It's a robust policy, Paul. But Paul, I think we need to think about synergy and work together to achieve strategic implementation, Paul". I am the grand...

I've got a feeling this is going to be one of those days. Wednesday, April 6, 2011. Overheard at Flinders Street Station. Girl with flannelette shirt and army surplus bag to girl with half-shaved head and black framed glasses:. Don't ya think it's funny how people wanna be all, like, ironic. April 6, 2011 at 10:59 PM.

The Inkling: June 2010
http://hannahtheinkling.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
I've got a feeling this is going to be one of those days. Wednesday, June 16, 2010. Monday, June 14, 2010. Pretty much everyone I know has at least one of those cross-cultural stories up their sleeve. Or at least anyone who’s ever been overseas, which is, frankly, most people these days. I also had, for the longest time, gotten on the backs of my American friends about pronouncing the word “buoy” (as in, a floating thing in the sea) like “boo-ee” instead of “boy”. 8220;THIS IS JUST RIDICULOUS! Until I lo...

The Inkling: Why I can never get Pay TV
http://hannahtheinkling.blogspot.com/2011/04/why-i-can-never-get-pay-tv.html
I've got a feeling this is going to be one of those days. Sunday, April 24, 2011. Why I can never get Pay TV. The LifeStyle channel - Location, Location, Location. A Place in the Sun. Grand Designs, Homes Under the Hammer. Fantasy Homes by the Sea. The list goes on and on. It's like an orgy of home-buying Britishness, and i just can't drag myself away from it. Also, 16 and Pregnant. Thanks to MTV and Don't Tell the Bride. On LifeStyle You. Yes, I really am that pathetic. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://hannahtheinkling.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
I've got a feeling this is going to be one of those days. Saturday, November 6, 2010. Have currently got Antonia Fraser's marvellous Mary Queen of Scots. On the go, and have just finished the new Sevenwaters book from Juliet Marillier, Seer of Sevenwaters.

The Inkling: I dug the clapping as much as I dug Jesus
http://hannahtheinkling.blogspot.com/2011/04/i-dug-clapping-as-much-as-i-dug-jesus.html
I've got a feeling this is going to be one of those days. Monday, April 18, 2011. I dug the clapping as much as I dug Jesus. As mentioned previously, I have just been reading Benjamin Law's hilarious The Family Law. Benjamin is a rather funny fellow. He muses on life, family, growing up, and being a young gay man of Malaysian/Hong Kongian/Chinese heritage. I can't say I exactly relate to this final aspect, but there are so many things in this book that had me going "oh my gosh, YES! Herewith, the excerpt:.
