but there is something about Melbourne and it sure ain't the weather

so i had a trip to Melbourne this week,
was going down to see Heather off at the airport,
she left for Japan on tuesday
and i had an orthadontist appointment today
so i figured there was no point in making two trips to Melbourne in one week
and stayed at my Nana's place in Mt Waverly and caught up with her
that was cool, haven't seen her since christmas and she is having a hard time at the moment, she made me chocolate mud muffins yummy, thanks Nana
i also caught up with my best mate Dave and his fiance (as of just recent) Rosie
so that was cool, talked a little about their wedding and the sick cars we will be riding to the wedding in, good on ya Geoff (he is Rosies dad, lined up the cars)
they came with me to the Forge postcards night at NCCC, it was Steve Taylor's book launch for "Out of bounds church?" in Australia, that was cool, cause Dave and Rosie hadn't really had anything to do with the emerging church before and so they kinda got introduced to some of the stuff to do with the EC, and stuff that i have been getting gradually into
didn't know what to expect though, hadn't been to a book launch before
anyways will post about the launch later tonight
had a good time in Melbourne didn't end up apart of any accidents, it was my first time driving by myself in Melbourne, did have to avoid a couple though (Tab ingnore this bit), and learnt to drive in traffic, real traffic, not peack half hour in Ballarat traffic
did miss a few turns cause i was in the wrong lane and streets came quicker than i thought the would
ran into a friend Tui at Westfield Doncaster she works at Sportsco there i found out
so that was cool too
drove home today after getting in trouble from my orthordontist for losing my orthordontic plate, retainer, whatever, it is in my room somewhere, have to find it, don't think i want to have to tell my parents that i need a new one $$$ ouch
i do love Melbourne, even though i am a Sydney boy, New South Welshman, and always will be, but there is something about Melbourne and it sure ain't the weather
