Saturday was the hottest day in Melbourne on record, the hottest temperature I've ever experienced at 46.4deg Celsius (115.5deg F). The hot wind hit you in the face like a hot iron. Clothes on ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=115 You know what? Dating is kind of fun, despite the emotional roller coaster than can come with it. Yesterday afternoon, hot day, meeting after work for a walk on the beach. I'm walking around with the biggest goofiest grin ever. Tomorrow night? Dinner at his place. Will I be able to concentrate ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=114 Sweet, beautiful things. Oh, Sundayschool makes me want to spin in circles with her beautiful posts… but so many lovely links! Two blogs from Lobster and Swan: Lobster and Swan Record the day Both make me swoon. These! These are the little paper ephemeral bits of art I’d love to create. What ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=113 I’ve been thinking, amongst other things, a little about goals. I’ve been thinking about what I want. In life, in general terms, in specific terms. Sometimes when my thoughts have been meandering around a topic for a while, I’ll have a little thought bubble burst into my head like some ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=112 I really love having a garden, even the small courtyard out back & deck-with-pots out front satisfies my green thumb. It relaxes me; time passes and before I realise, it’s getting dark (or raining) and I need to go inside. Here’s what I’ve got growing: rhubarb, silverbeet (chard), capsicums (peppers), ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=111 There’s a problem with this whole not sleeping thing. It’s called starting work at 6am. It’d be all good and well if I could operate on five or six hours sleep, but that’s not me in the slightest. Give me eight hours a night for satisfactory results, nine hours for ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=110 There’s been a lot of thinking lately - I guess you could say time for reflection, but often it ends up impinging itself on me in the form of worry at 3am. There’s good reflection and then there’s bad reflection. I have a tendency towards the latter. Amongst the good ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=109 After some considerable dramas with my previous wireless internet provider, I'm back online - new internet provider, new house, new season (spring!), new beginnings. It's been a tumultuous time. Things are starting slow down, except the stuff in my mind comes in storms. It'll be all calm for a while until ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=108 I’ve wandered around my apartment this evening, in general feeling overwhelmed. So much to do, so much, so much so much… all on my own. It feels like an insurmountable task. The roller coaster that is my life continues to flip over and under and around and loop-the-loop. I’m moving house. ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=107 I keep reviewing the last couple of weeks, even the last couple of months, like the last chapter of a book where I just don’t understand the ending. That’s the twist? Well, I sure didn’t see that one coming… My mind has been so full. Sometimes it’s utter despair, other times ... http://jen.realityfuel.org/index.php/?p=106
