   As it's been a few years, I've forgotten how dreadful it is to get a cold. I'm sniffly and teary for no good reason. It's rather like being nostalgic about nothing.

   The sky took on a weird bluish hue this afternoon, and there was the faint outline of large white things floating in it. The sun was yellow, rather that the usual red, and as I was walking home from work, my eyes didn't water. Nor did I cough or sneeze. There was no form of artificial light, yet I cast a shadow. Apocalypse postponed.

   @tregeagle They should really have put the evil thing up front in the advertisement. Henchmen are a breed apart. Not all of us are up to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag_AFraxj-4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hD3w_VdTG30

   @tregeagle Bah. Don't know what I was so worried about. All I need now is a bag of ice cubes, a bottle of ether, some mescalin, a convertible, and my large Samoan attorney and I'll be fighting fit. #WhenTheGoingGetsWeird

   Had too much to drink last night, and the previous… well, couple of months. Had a miserable morning shift, and soon I'm going to get the heebie jeebies. Damn. Hate the heebie jeebies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksmGt2U-xTE

   @tregeagle Damn that #Kilkenny packs a wallop. Reminds me of the times I used to ride the monorail backwards in the last cabbage.

   Ferocious wind now coming from the east. There goes my pea souper. Blow away, blow away, blow away. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddnRtFd7Hps

   I've decided to treat the smoke as fog. I have an appointment in #Coffs tomorrow. I wonder if there's somewhere I can get a long overcoat, a top hat, and a silver-topped cane. Or failing that, just a deerstalker and a meerschaum pipe.

    Had to go into #work to tell the chap assembling the roster that I couldn't do Wednesday next week (and, tacitly, that I exist; nice but unexpected holiday I had last week). The smoke was all through the shopping mall. Could hardly see from one end to t'other. Lady in the off-licence said goodbye with "stay safe". Safe? I'm about to drink some of this cheap poisonous muck. Safety is a matter of degree. [*Cough*]

    @tregeagle That's the nice thing about being self-conscious; you're always the first person to notice.

    @tregeagle Nice. How did you make me look not awkward? Years of experience, I suppose.

    It's 34℃, according to the #Coffs airport weather station, the sky is Bangkok brown, flecks of ash are drifting by, I'm wheezing, my eyes are stinging, and I am very glad I don't have asthma. #sawtell

    Man sits defiantly, agonisingly in the wrong place for four years, for no good reason, before finally saying "I'll get me coat". https://microblog.mjd.id.au/url/31856

    Real, proper, pelting summer-style rain for the first time since moving into digs at 221B Baker St #Sawtell. Familiar but surreal. The palm trees are not so much swaying as angrily thrashing about.

    @tregeagle I can just about accommodate a skeleton, but the taxidermied bear will have to stay out on the landing with Hercules.
