Today I photographed a buttfuck of places for Melbourne Cup (Brisbane Times internship this week!). A number of things happened and my feet are currently leaking puss. But aside from Stefan offering me a prawn, the most interesting part of my day was this:

>Doing some vox pops
>Ask people how they feel about interest rate hikes
>Find out they're trainers
>They won $30, 000 and buy me a drink so I'll stay while they tell me stories
>Fuck yeah, this is what life is all about!
>Aging foul-mouthed baby boomer asks to take picture with me
>Look down, his hand is hovering over my boob but I humour him (no actual contact)
>Turn to say something to him
>HE FULL ON PASHES ME ON THE LIPS

Now that said, there is a chance that there was no drunken debauchery involved and he was just trying to suck the youth out of me. At least Matt and I got a bit of a giggle out of it when recounting the tale.  (Take a moment to read one of my articles so my mouth-AIDS won't have been in vain!)

SIDE NOTE: Brisbane Times will run a story I pitched this week that is a little bit... frilly :D

Wow moneytimes.. Wish I had $30k.

Ewww :( aidssssssssss.

I was wondering how you were getting published in bristimes ;) They are running a doco/article/series? on my work. Nice workkkkkk. Will look forward to your article! :) If you ever need a photographer for an article you know where to go too ;p

Also BIFF this weekend - RUBBER - magical murderous tyre. 11.30pm at tribal? :D

Oh, do you have a link? I searched for you but it didn't come up ;_; I'm actually working on a story about lolita from a feminist angle at the moment (rich coming from me, I know)... do you think I'd be able to use some of your pictures for the gallery? Credited of course. It's cool if not but it'd be another chance to get your name on the site ^^;

OH FUCK OH JESUS YES I WANT TO SEE THIS WITH ALL MY HEART/OVARIES. I love late screenings, I'll definitely be there!

I don't know if they've run it yetttttt, I just know the photographer from there came into the kitchen a couple times and said they were doing a thing on us.

Better than that other feminist angle one (the "frills keep men at bay" or whatever?) Yeah sure take whatever you want, maybe not the ones of us at andrea's ero party though.. ahahaha :D http://s238.photobucket.com/home/Thalionrin/allalbums

In other news UQ vet clinic made elliot's family pay $1200+ to look after his dog after it got a paralysis tick, and then our other friend's dog was put under anaesthetic/left alone/vomited in mouth but cuoldn't open it/brain damage/dead. D:

Omg my housemates dog just had a tic yesterday too! He got looked after for 2 days and it was early enough that he was fine.
Suz, watch out for a hyperactive, panting, vomiting dog with dilated pupils, thats how we realised.

Oh no, which one was it? That would be scary. Though maybe the drugs have calmed him down a bit >_>

Piglet, the blackie. He's all shaved now and feels like a mouse, poor baby.

That's lucky, elliot's dog had had it for three days before it was taken.. :\

FUCKING SHITCOCK, that's awful :( I don't know where a student vet clinic gets off charging that much to look after an animal... is it okay now?

And the second case made me rage because one of my dogs died a while ago when it went into cardiac arrest while the vet was out to lunch. It's like, aren't there nurses there to keep an eye on seriously ill animals? I mean, it's kind of what you trust them to do.

I like the angle, it sounds really good because other people will be able to relate and read it anyway. You should use some candid photos.

I might be up for BIFF too.

Come to Rubber, I can drop you back after!
