Picture this;  African lady comes into work, cliched, corn rows etc. Asks for a peppermint tea. I respond; "Black?".  Silence.  "What do you mean?"  "Um, with a teabag...".  "Oh. Well yes, then. Please".
Wow. So much funnier on the day.

Tomorrow, I will have been in Sydney for 5 months, which is crazy.  It's been fast and slow and unsettling while being settling, hard to imagine life not being here, but also can't believe I live in Sydney.  Still a bit surreal, but I love it.

Tonight the girls and I are heading to a brand new Sydney bar- Cuban themed, live bands, specialty rum and mojitos, dancing.  I'm breaking out a dress and heels (or flats, let's be honest) and crumping the night away.

I have work tomorrow so I won't be rocking out too hard, but am actually looking forward to it.
Have a weird week with random days off, but looking forward to chilling out and coffeeing. The weather's been lovely (other than the cold).

Also, you may have heard that someone in Sydney died and wasn't found for 8 years. It wasn't me, in case you were worried.
