Blog Thread III : Look Who's Blogging Now
Inlander:
Melbourne was really created by the gold rush in Victoria of the mid-19th century and then continued to flourish through to the beginning of the 20th century, when it was the capital of Australia, so the majority of the houses in inner Melbourne are from the Victorian and Edwardian eras. There are literally thousands and thousands of houses like that around here. I love them.
E. Spaceman:
One of my favourite things in this world is that Melbourne was founded by John Batman, without whom Wikipedia would be without great lines such as:
--- Quote ---When he found the current site of central Melbourne he noted in his diary, "This will be the place for a village."[1][2] and declared the land "Batmania".[3][4]
--- End quote ---
StaedlerMars:
That's pretty amazing.
Blog thread,
I am, as of today, working three jobs. I'm already exhausted. For the Fringe I'm going to be essentially working four (one unpaid).
I am pretty much giving up social life. Also, my flatmate has a friend staying in his room for a bit, and my flatmate is out of town for a week, so this friend decided that it would be suitable to play music loudly at 4.30 in the morning. This probably contributed to me being absolutely brain dead now.
McTaggart:
I wish we had houses that small here.

My tortoise ate a strawberry, and now she's got red goop all over her beak, so she looks like a zombie tortoise. It is adorable and/or horrifying.
