I’ll give you a warm embrace with my Latin American culture 😏

I’m hungry but do not want to eat. Explain that one.

He’s performing with the SSO at the opera house so I’m furiously consuming Rufus material. I’m a big fan of Martha, Rufus I just kind of let go by and what a shame that was!

I’m in my Rufus Wainwright era. Also, I know you’re married daddy but I have feelings too and I’m right here. I’ll do whatever you want, how you want it, for as long as you want it, forever and ever amen.

Even reading this gave me anxiety

Im addicted to watching these videos of this very cute boy making increasingly elaborate vegetable meals for his hundreds of guinea pigs.

Mum just pointed at the picture of “Ethnic Haircut Number 3” and asked the hairdresser to just give me that.

Yours Truly’s school photo. I was possibly aged six or seven and I am rocking the most bowl cut on earth. I’m wearing a light blue school uniform shirt and likely also have missing teeth under that goofy half grin I am giving.

She wore an apron everywhere always. It was more decorative than functional and before she became a devout Christian she would carry in that apron a packet of smokes and a gun. She never learned to read or write but you also wouldn’t fuck with her. Salvadoran women don’t play, they fuck back.

This is my grandmother. She was such a special lady, she had a rough life. Married at 16, she had 10 children by the time she was 36. Was dirt poor and fled wars and famines and horrors unnumbered and she was also the sweetest, most humble lady who ended her days surrounded by love. I miss her daily

My beloved grandma, her name was Maria Valeria but we called her Mamma Yeya. She is sitting on a big couch mending a dress and little 9 year old me is kneeling next to her giving her a kiss on the cheek. May she forever be ascended and her name elevated.

Turns out this was just practice for what was to come.

Me, kneeling before a man, opening my mouth to receive the warm love of Jesus.

All Salvadoran families have a photo just like this one somewhere in the archives. I live. 🇸🇻

My grandmother, she wore custom made dresses that were conservative but brightly coloured. She also wore a white veil because she was a god fearing woman. My uncle is standing next to her, rocking a cowboy hat and a blue shirt. There’s a chequered floor and on the cyan blue walls photos of stern looking uncles and cousins and other family members. Oh and don’t forget everyone’s highschool diplomas on the wall.

There was a wonderful glamour of Salvadoran women of the 80s. Big hair, big heels, big shoulders. This is my lady mother, she is wonderful. She would go to the salon twice a week to get her hair did because “a respectable lady should not have to brush her own hair.”

My lady mother making a telephone call with her big hair and her jewellery and 80s glamour.

Living in Melbourne is like living in the Book of the Apocalypse. ON THE SAME DAY, torrential rain which caused floods and then to top it off, an earthquake. My old girl’s weather is fucked and furious but I love her and will defend her and all of the fucking weirdos that live betwixt her.

Dinner in Melbourne is one of life’s great joys. The weather is shit but the people are wonderful, here are some of those wonderful people having a cosy dinner inside while it rains outside.

Yours Truly, in full rain jacket although I should have also worn gaiters and polar fleece because in Melbourne in spring it rains and sunshines and yesterday it also earthquaked.

This is enraging. So the ONLY thing available to counter inflation is to constantly ratchet up my mortgage repayments but they can’t do a thing about this shit in 11 years? I pay company tax, personal tax, council rates, exorbitant interest, every kind of fkn govt payment but look at these pricks.

Trams are free in Melbourne. You know it’s true.

I’m going to nominate Melbourne’s 86 tram for world heritage status. Just iconic. A wild ride, but iconic.
