Melbourne Atlas 2006

The Melbourne Atlas 2006 has been made available for free download. From what I’ve seen it pretty much reinforces the stereotypes you probably already hold — Melbourne’s public transport system hasn’t really changed since the 1950s, the highest rates of domestic violence occur in Frankston and Hume, 20-29 year olds live in the inner suburbs, and so on. Still, I love stuff like this.

Long Time

I haven’t written anything substantial here for a long time. I’ve been up to a lot, but nothing much that’s appropriate for writing about in such a public forum.

Other than the things I’d rather keep un-public, I’ve been doing all the usual stuff — watching football, working too hard, buying Johnny Cash and Woody Guthrie records, taking bad photos with my phone, and playing Nintendo.

Grey Hair

I just discovered my first grey hair. I was about to pull it out, but I’ve decided to keep it. I’ve always wanted to grow old.
