Good day comrades,
What are your plans for the day? Are you getting ready to overthrow the government next Wednesday? Yeah, me neither, so I'm just going to chill out with my wife on her farm, and eat the remaining chocolate we couldn't finish last Sunday. I'll also be praying for the Celtics to defeat the Bucks, but I don't think the NBA gods will support me on this one.
How about you? What are you doing today/this weekend? Also, how come it's almost May!? January was like... yesterday! |

Enjoying our vacation in Crete. Temperature between 22 and 25C and without clouds it even feels hot.
Easter here will be tomorrow, the most important day of the year.
Must try to watch F1 on Sunday and on Tuesday we will fly back home. |

Haha, I'm not! I mean, the International Workers' Day does have a socialist beginning, so it's too tempting to use the language :p |

Not a huge amount. Recovering from a family visit and a week in Santa Fe.
One thing I'm hoping to snag is the new Phase DVS system for my decks.
If that happens today, it may mean the weekend (and the rest of this year) will actually see my 1210 and Vestax get some use finally rather than looking nice in my office.
Serato or Traktor? What say you? |

Not a great deal happening here. It's Brisbane city council's "kerbside collection" week for our suburb, so everyone's putting all their large, unwanted out in the street for the collection trucks to pick up. Unwanted furniture etc., so we've de-cluttered quite a bit this morning. Feels good, man.
It's pretty funny watching all the scavengers from other suburbs rocking up with trailers on their cars and going through people's junk piles. Half the stuff we put out on the road an hour ago is already gone, lol. |

| I wish we had some equivalent of that here. I've got a whole basement piled up with junk and I've only owned this house for three months. |

| Attended an annual IT conference out of town on Thursday and Friday. Did the yard work and a little laundry today. B-day brouhaha for the father-in-law tomorrow followed by the remainder of the house work, then back to the grind on Monday. Fabulous weather this weekend. I wanted to get in a night at the cabin, but it wasn't in the cards. |

You should have tossed it all before you moved! Before we moved, about 4 years ago, we lived at the same house for 10 years, and the sheer amount of crap we chucked out before the move was actually slightly embarrassing. |

Guys.
Every time I've ever moved, I dash the out I don't want (or can't sell) on the street, Did it in London every time and do it here. It never ceases to amaze me what people will pick up, even when I clearly put "broken" on it or "missing part".
Once in London we were moving and I'd put stuff out on the street and see how long it would take. The longest was a battered old elliptical cross trainer that took 44 mins to go and that was just because the guy came back with a van to grab it.. |
