What the hell, August?

I swear to you it was August the first three minutes ago!

The month in notes: Erised story 5000 words in. Two new garden beds created. No ad staff murdered. No one else dead. Wedding of nice friends! Stomach ulcer mostly under control. Month flown by.

BUT, I bring you all a wacky Australian news story. Because it's what we do. The Australian, Murdoch's 'serious' paper here (once good, now mostly tin-hat), ran a story:



This was the official Australian Unions Twitter response:



Sharing the love, guys. Sharing the love.

That's good to hear about the improving ulcer, hope it'll keep improving :3 I agree about time, though 2015 seem to fly by so fast!

For me personally the month ended in not a good note-- I keep having neck/shoulder/arm pain and it's making work/typing painful. And of course, Oliver Sacks, whom I adore, passed away today.

For me this is Terry Prachett all over again...

It is such a bad year for deaths. We are losing all the good people, while total fuckheads are thriving. It's too much to hope that Dick Cheney will accidentally shoot Donald Trump, and then be taken out by Trump's Goon Squad, who clear up Tony Abbott in the crossfire. But I'd trade all three of them for a month of Pratchett or Sacks.

Now there's (was) an idea. Deadline (please excuse possible pun) passed, unfortunately.
