Forgot to post last night but I arrived in Mollymook yesterday afternoon. I'm here until tomorrow then I start heading home ๐๏ธ
Straight up. I've done it the long way around a couple of times and it's a long long way of nothing much interesting so it's the M31 for me just to get there quicker.
Looking at NSW coast but a little further north where the sun is apparently shining, probably aim for the Shoalhaven area. Boss has approved. Just packing my suitcase now.
Really considering telling the boss I need the rest of the week off, jumping in my car and driving somewhere untill Sunday. I have done zero to prepare for this but I could make it happen. Feeling pretty low this week.
I have photographic evidence of possibly the exact moment when my brain flipped from being interested in ninja turtles to being interested in ladies.
This is me and a 24 or 25 (I think) year old Kylie Minogue at my dad's work xmas party one year. Judging by my style/pudgy face I'm going to say it was around 1993 or 1994. I hadn't seen this photo in decades but my mum sent it to me over the weekend.
I'll be 41 years old this month.
I'd like to say I've lived a bit of a life. I've had and lost friends. I've found and lost love. I was even married for a little while. I was directionless career-wise coming out of high school but now I'm quite successful and am paid well for it. I'm moderately well-travelled. I've been to and seen a lot of places both domestic and abroad and not all of them were so nice.. some were even outright sketchy.
But today, on April 1st 2024 - I saw my very first bona fide, honest-to-god, ready for use, manky Glory Hole. A clearly frequented hole in the side of a toilet stall complete with some eager gent waiting on the other side.
From now on my life has been split in two; before I saw a Glory Hole and after. I was so young in the before-times. So naive. So full of hope.
I'm freeeeee! Just a bit of sniffles left and the medical centre has given me the ok to leave isolation.
Edit: interesting development.. just showered and put deodorant on and I can't smell anything haha
What an odd sensation. Coconut sunscreen.. nothing. Cologne.. nothing.
Going to find some breakfast to check on taste but toothpaste was barely noticeable soooo
Edit edit: I can kinda taste ketchup but that was about it from my eggs and bacon breakfast. I should just eat the healthy stuff I might not usually eat.
Every few years I try Domino's again to make sure my avoidance of them is justified and every time I'm reminded how right I am. Before you think I'm just a pizza snob, I like and semi regularly get Pizza Hut.
It's so purdy
I've been there. That exact scenario. My condolences ๐
