life or books?: Home again, home again, jiggety jig.

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Thursday, December 29, 2011. Home again, home again, jiggety jig. Well, we're back. The thing I really miss about Brisbane is that feeling of being totally at ease with people, because you've known them such a long time that you've forgotten what they've forgiven you for. With new people, you never know what you might do wrong to them, because it hasn't happened yet. That is really brilliant, had to read it out loud to Mrs.

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Wednesday, January 25, 2012. Nature, red in tooth and beak. We were forced to have a barbecue at Lake Tuggeranong Town Park. The park is green and pleasant, with a sandy lakeshore beach, skate park and playground equipment. Trees, shelters and barbecues round out its parkly attributes. It rained. Also, black swans really do have red beaks. With a white stripe. No teeth. Tuesday, January 24, 2012. Sunday, January 22, 2012. Elvis Ext...

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Thursday, October 20, 2011. I wish I was young and in black and white like Bob Dylan in 1963. Sunday, October 16, 2011. Expected things about New Zealand. It is indeed very green, especially to a jaded Australian eye from old wide brown land, etc. You can eat a lot of delicious stuff including ice cream, lamb, venison, squid, salmon and oysters. Unexpected things about New Zealand. There's not a lot of traffic south of Dunedin.

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Thursday, November 24, 2011. Human rights - a quite serious post with no flippancy for a change. Some of you might be interested to hear that the Human Rights (Parliamentary Scrutiny) Bill 2010. Passed Parliament today. It was introduced into the House of Representatives in September 2010. If you read Hansard you will also find some fairly vitriolic personal attacks, but I guess that's to be expected. Tuesday, November 22, 2011.

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Tuesday, August 16, 2011. What are public servants for? James Whelan from the Centre for Policy Development has just written a report on the public sector, called The State of the Australian Public Service: An Alternative Report. Larvatus Prodeo has a post about it. Here are some reasons why this might be the case. Larvatus Prodeo asks the question, what are public servants for? But much less about why. I also saw, today, an art wo...

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Saturday, December 31, 2011. The junior in the jargon. So a while ago I was doing my googling and I found an abstract from a conference in Portugal that sounded pretty darn exciting, because it sounded like someone else had exactly. The same situation that junior had, and some pretty darn smart doctors were thinking about it. And then I realised, of course, that it was my. Thursday, December 29, 2011. Well, we're back.

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Sunday, January 22, 2012. Miss Lou Lou's Tapping Starlettes Elvis Extravaganza. When I remember what it was like to live in Melbourne I like to think of the time I went to see Miss Lou Lou's Tapping Starlettes. I don't know if things like that still happen in Melbourne.

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Monday, May 30, 2011. Does anyone else's child or more junior acquaintances go through days (and days and days) where they just dont' stop talking and everything they say is either about Dr Who or about something completely random and there are no segues? Are there more naughts in naughts and crosses? Fozzy Bear tells really bad jokes, remember the one where the telephone spurts smoke out at him and Animal pours water on the phone?

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Saturday, February 26, 2011. Getting older and getting fatter. So I've put on quite a lot of weight over the past few years. Polite friends and acquaintances always make smooshy 'mmm, aaaah, oh I wouldn't say so' kind of noises whenever the topic comes up. But it is a fact, I am now about 10 kilograms heavier than I was 10 years ago, give or take a bit. It's just extra stuff I carry about with me. You know what my body did once?

So, is reading actually more important than living? It's so hard to tell. Saturday, July 30, 2011. So, Best-Department-Evah is having a ball this year. They tried to organise one last year, but everyone was a bit 'meh' what with the extended caretaker period and not knowing if we'd have jobs and all. But it didn't exactly look unlike that either (especially to the untutored, not growing up in the 1980s sort of eye). It was like a slight pretension to good taste version of that.
