ANZAC Day

I’ve been pretty sick lately. But this past week I’ve been getting better – I’ve been out of bed and back at work. But since I’ve been back, one of my co-workers has been on vacation. I say this because he is the one with the most … Australian vocabulary, so it’s been a few weeks since I really had to interpret Australian. But today is ANZAC Day so I am going to try to remember some of the words and phrases I’ve learned to expect.

Phrases like don’t catch yourself a light. how’re you traveling? get some yum yum? and good on you. And words like nibblies, mobile, tele, bin, uni, and texter.

There they are. Happy ANZAC Day!

The Commute

If you’re dumb enough to not put the name and address of your establishment on coupons you’re giving everyone exiting metro, at least call it out repetitively. No waffles for me. I don’t know where to go.

Speaking of metro …

Did any of you see the set up at Rosslyn station this week? It was there right in time for the Russell Crowe/Ben Affleck movie State of Play they were filming, and then it was gone.

Speaking of metro … again …

My bus driver of 8 months is gone. [So the one I’ve had since I moved to my new place.] I think he is the best one in the whole system. I may have had a little crush on him.
