Ok, so it's been a while between posts. Well actually it's been about a year. So much has changed. yet surprisingly (or not), so little has actually changed. Different job, different GF, I've moved homes, and have further focused my career/life goals. I know. What's this, Jody has life goals? When, what, how. Well I guess I stayed sober and straight long enough to figure that, mmm, maybe life wasn't going to be handed to me on a big fucking silver platter. (although, I always imagined it would be this super tacky gold platter). But enough about me, for now. More important things to discuss. Like what the fuck is the problem with the Brisbane City Council Bus Drivers? Is the council now looking for people with the worst driving records? The bus drivers are obsessed with running red lights, parking across intersections, changing lanes without indicating and general obnoxious behaviour. They really just don't care about you. I, personally, have twice in two weeks been almost knocked down by a bus that ran a red light, while I had the little green man signal that it was safe to cross. Maybe that should be an orange man now. To signal, "now is the best time to cross, but just watch out for buses. Our are colour blind". I want to drag them out of their seats and beat them with a steel pipe. But some people say this is a bad thing. And cops, don't get me started on cops. So I'm sitting in my car, waiting to turn from Brunswick St into Ann St in the Valley, there's a walk signal before you can turn, which changes to a don't walk signal. But everybody always keeps walking. Hundreds of them. So you get maybe one car around the corner for every change of lights. Now I sit there and watch four uniformed police officers, stand and watch this. For at least three changes of lights. Not once did one of them issue a ticket for even the most reckless and dangerous of J-walking. Why? I want to drag them into the street and beat them with a steel pipe. Again, some people thing this is bad. Although I'd bet not as many as before.

Phfew. Politicians. Oh tomorrow. Yes. Politicians tomorrow.

I do hope anyone who reads this has a rather pleasant day, and that you get just as much sleep as you need. Love each other unashamedly, and don't take people's crap.
