01. So getting tickets to Eurovision was VERY STRESSFUL but we did it!
02. Cooking: this tomato salad. So good. And this recipe for jazzing up lamb chops. Tasty.
03. Listening: Slow Burn S2 podcast about Monica Lewinsky and the Clinton impeachment. I’ve listened to this podcast before, but decided to revisit it after talking with a friend about Lewinsky’s excellent TED talk about shame.
04. I usually swim at one of two local pools but this week I went well out of my catchment (to Carnegie). Nice change of scenery.
05. Watching: finished Dear Life (Stan) – gosh this made me bawl.
06. Dear Life is set in Ballarat, and the main character lives in a boat shed on Lake Wendouree. I went to many regattas at Lake Wendouree, and in a fit of nostalgia, I decided to do an ergo. I haven’t done an ergo for a decade and the technology has progressed – there’s an app now, where you can join the ‘workout of the day‘. I’m already a bit obsessed, partly because I smashed the first two rows (you can see where you rank against other participants worldwide).
07. Spent an afternoon checking out the new underground stations in the Melbourne CBD.
08. And in more stressful music moments (but not as stressful as Eurovision), the Laneway program was announced this week. A few little overlaps and one clash (Role Model and Geese, but I’ll pick Role Model) but otherwise I’m very pleased – it’s going to be a HUGE day.
