I'm rewatching Muriel's Wedding for the first time since I was going to uni in Townsville, QLD in 2003.
Is... is this movie a dig on Queensland? It was probably Queenslanders that insisted I watch it in the first place.

Went and touched grass today (well, sat my butt in the frosty creek, a Rocky Mountain equivalent). Made some echoes under one of the old stone bridges and then read a book.
"I believe they call this a Twitter," [the Eighth Doctor] said. "A tiny, avian creature drawn to pain and suffering."
Excerpt from 2002's "The Crooked World" EDA by Steve Lyons. Twitter was founded four years later.

I did dramatic readings from "The Blue Angel" on the most recent ep of the Pieces of Eighth podcast! It was delightful voicing Iris Wildthyme. Paul Magrs himself enjoyed it (see below) so I'll call that success!

Feeling pretty crummy about things in the world, so today I got a membership to our community e-bike share program & tooled around Manitou Springs & Old Colorado City. The system could use some tweaks but I'm pleased this service exists & am happy to support this non-profit org.

An auto body shop in Colorado Springs, CO has these awesome life-sized #Transformers made from discarded auto parts in their parking lot. Clearly a lot of skill went into these. Closeups in second post. 1/2

I just went to a stargazing party at one of the local universities. Even though all their telescopes apparently broke right before the event, it was still one of the most relaxing things I've done in a long time.
I just want an hour of outtakes of Tom Baker's scarf being stepped on, tripped on, caught on the scenery, etc. Is that too much to ask?

30mph (50kph) gusts on Pikes Peak kept trying to blow the hat right off my head! It did make my duster look extra cool tho.
(And they're going to have to update the summit height AGAIN, it's 14,107 as of this year. Keeps expanding & contracting w/the cold I guess 🤪)
