Buying a new dress, by accident, on my way home from the Department of Immigration.
Dealing with Immigration in Oz? Only about a BILLION times better than in the UK. No exaggeration, I was in and out in 15 minutes, I only had to fill in a few basic details, and the lady was super nice and helpful.

Being told my bike bell was "awesome" by a MAMIL (middle-aged man in lycra) this morning.
Ding dong!

Sharing a secret giggle with middle bro as we were ushered around the super plush Eden display suite.
We may go back next weekend for another free coffee, perhaps in disguise this time. As rich people who could afford a riverside apartment in Richmond rather than a couple of bedraggled local bums.

Saying goodbye to the gorgeous little Lauren after an afternoon of playing mermaids and reading Charlie and Lola. She launched herself at me for a monster squeeze.

Melbourne International Animation Festival time! Y'all know what that means: mind-bendingly trippy sh*t on at ACMI.

Receiving a text with an x on the end of it, from someone I actually want to kiss. Simple pleasures.

Meeting a lovely new client who I'm already looking forward to working with. And she introduced me to the loveliest little coffee shop/milk bar/café in North Melbourne town (they supply blankets instead of those horribly wasteful outdoor gas heaters).

FOX MULDER'S BEARD! Sorry, it called for ALL CAPS.
Scared the crap out of myself watching "The X Files: I Want To Believe" by myself in the flat late at night.

My friend's sweet little 3 year old searching my flat, then coming to me, putting his hands on my knees and asking earnestly: Where do you keep all your toys? Aw.

Watching my mum wobble away on my bike, my Dad and I yelling instructions after her (she hasn't ridden for many years).

Reading Barry Humphries "My Life as Me", in which he waxes lyrical about the first flat he ever lived in by himself – describing it as "serene and aloof" – and smiling in recognition.

Melbourne: the kind of town where you can leave your bike lights on your bike (and your panniers full of books) and they will still be there when you get back.

Melbourne: the kind of town where you can accidentally forget to take your $70 from the cash drawer of the self checkout machine, and someone will hand it in.

"Sim sala bim!" I have no idea which exotic childhood story this is from, but doesn't it sound cool? I imagine it's in the same category as "Open Sesame!" and "Bippity Boppity Boo".

Tucking into a delicious lunch of Tasmanian Heritage camembert smeared on Yarra Valley crackers with feta-stuffed olives from the market yesterday, finishing with a delicious juicy pear. Serious yumness.
