Rainbow colours shouldn't be difficult to spot in the middle of the day

So, today I got hit by a car.

Okay, I'm exaggerating. Today I was swiped by a car because apparently you don't actually need to stop for pedestrians at a pedestrian crossing. Arsehole.

My knee is turning some interesting colours, though.

On a more cheerful note, I seem to have an unexpectedly full social life this weekend.

I mean, today was Silly Night for FOUL - which was rather amusing and, as the name implies, silly.

Then, I ducked out early to go see Melbourne Model: The Musical. Some backstory for people who don't go to Melbourne Uni: The Melbourne Model is a reworking of the course structure at the Uni which has been incredibly controversial with a number of people, especially Creative Arts students. As a result, some have said Creative Arts students decided to protest it's implementation by... writing a musical.

It wasn't actually bad, though it was incredibly un-PC and exeptionally scathing of Glyn Davis and co. Very, very funny though, if in some parts down to the "I can't believe they just said that" factor. I especially liked Sam's Asia number, though the dude playing Glyn was hilarious.

And that was just tonight. Tomorrow I'm somehow trying to work out a way to both attend connikins's 21st, and catch up with Mum when she is in town for The Sister's birthday (which was today).

And I shall leave you all with an amusing quote from Silly Night:

A girl I don't know (to me): "Excuse me, can I feel your skirt?"
(After feeling my skirt)
"It's just, it feels just like I imagined. Kind of felty. Like Scotland!"

Glad you're ok. It's amazing the lack of caring from some people. I see it biking- they'd rather endanger me on my bike, by passing me too close, rather than take the oncoming lane or wait (literally) 30 seconds for a gap, in order to get past me safely.

I did at once point consider riding to Uni (after getting a new bike, of course). I think the traffic was the main reason that I decided against it along with the fact it'd make wearing skirts and fun shoes a bit of a problem.

You can still wear cute stuff! Even traffic can be managed.

Well, public transport generally works well enough for me, so I'm sticking with it for now.

Good for you! Public transport here is nearly useless. Some people can make it work, but for most of us? Not a chance.
