Crazy Australian weather

Wow - it seems so surreal at the moment. We've had so many natural disasters in the last few weeks it feels quite odd to be going about our normal business. Needed to buy a new pair of Chucks today - the saleswoman (Jill - she was awesome) told me they were bored out of their brains, that business had all but vanished since the Brisbane floods. The only thing stopping me from feeling ridiculous for thinking of shoes during such trying times was the fact that my all black boots look remarkably like the ones River (firefly) wore in her fight sequence in Serenity.

So in other words, suitably post- apocalyptic...

Feeling amazingly at peace with the world right now. So many things in my life that could've gone wrong actually did go wrong in the last couple of years. No matter how careful I was to play things right, to be considerate, to have healthy boundaries - it seemed things were doomed to fail no matter what. So add a couple of natural disasters to the mix and I've now slipped into "Don't worry, Be happy" mode.

I suppose there's no point worrying about things over which I have no control. Time to enjoy the journey... in my black sci-fi boots...
