Look, he and his bride are just getting into their tiny tiny car.

This gag was funnier when Bill Watterson did it in Calvin & Hobbes. Which strip I mention on account of a gift recently received from a faraway blogger. (Thank you!)

Things done since returning from Melbourne at midnight on Friday:
- Fixed a broken front tooth.
- Helped make a short film for the 48-hour film festival.
- Unpacked. Rearranged all the furniture in the apartment.
- Got internet set up (this took NINE HOURS of today).
- Played netball (twice) and basketball.
- Prepared for and ran the grand finale of Slayers East.
- Attended two cocktail parties.
- Started a new work contract.
- Did my taxes from last year (mostly).
- Developed material for Masters.
- Came down with a very nasty cold.
- Cold medicine has pseudoephedrine in it and I have had only two hours sleep in the last forty-something and la la la la coldrex la la la when I closed my eyes to try and sleep last night I had crazy hallucinations of giant bugs sort of like a ganzfeld effect only with bugs they were staring at me. But I feel fine. Stupid cold.
I have a significantly large backlog of email and snail mail to clear. I have not read all the blogs I like to read. Forums haven’t even had a look in. And how is it that I’m not even enrolled yet and I am up against Masters-related urgent deadlines?

Another thing I did, courtesy Wellingtonista, which I did read:
- watched the first episode of the new Flight of the Conchords series, which has been freely released by HBO into the many tubes of the internets.
- It has the American girl from Peep Show in it. Yay for Peep Show.
- That is all.
