burning the candles at both ends
howdy.
just a quick post. it's my birthday. i'm in paris. it's amazing and i've already had the best time - hangin out and dancing with the krazy krauts and the pasty midlander. i've had cake and croissant and coffee. calls from best friends, loads of messages and skype from the folks.
it's all ace.
and then i started reading about the shit from home and it's upsetting me. the state has been on fire and heading towards 100 people have been burned. the photos on flickr are horrific and apparently even the premier is in tears. i have to say, i feel a tad guilty, rugged up in a beautifully clear and crisp morning in paris.
god, or whatever, please take care of the peeps back home and send some respite their way.
australians, give blood to the red cross and once the relief effort starts, please give as much money, time, effort as you can. to the rest of you who read my blog, please send some well wishes to 146º54', -37º30'. victorians - hang in there, we're with you.

hey, happy birthday!!!
it's been full on here. even Kevin Dudd was choking back tears in a speech he gave. but actually been quite amazing to see everyone donating so much... aussie spirit in full effect.
thought of you on your birthday. it has been a very surreal week here with all the grim grim horror stories so close. stay tucked up and safe x x x x
hey age - thanks! i heard about the tears and yeah, it's been great to see some good spirit in helping everyone out. it's nice to have that back for a while.
gem - thanks honey, i felt it. and it's been a bit surreal being back and seeing in too. ketchup soon. xx
