i <3 PT

Ringing up to find out about fares for a new bus service, the lady mentioned that that service had been very popular. I like the thought of a bus being 'very popular'. Having failed to renew my license (as in swap from Vic to NSW) three times now (it's all my fault - failure to procure and then bring correct documents. every. single. time), I am all about PT. It will make hiring a car difficult this week in Melbourne, but still...

So yes, I'm off to Melbourne this week. A heinous weekend of exam marking behind me (hand written exams. Hand written first year exams. Save me, save me), I'm off to Melbourne for the telly conference and MLX. I'm feeling a little trashed, having combined an exchange (SSF) with the marking. I am, obviously, seriously hardcore and badass, but I am also a bit snotty and a bit tired and confused.
In a couple of hours I'm off to the university for a markers' meeting (let's just hope no one asks me to describe what I read in the exams - it's all a blur to me now... well, it was kind of a blur to me then, too). Then I'm off to the airport from there. Carrying a backpack full of dance clothes (I'll need at least two outfits a night, then at least 3 Tshirt changes per night) and a smaller bag full of DJing gear. I will be like a little tortoise. But I think the L10 will save me - from my place to Leichardt, then Leichardt to the university, then the university straight to the airport. That's three different buses, but at least the L10 goes from Leichardt, which is near us, only 10 minutes on my normal bus first. No navigating the CBD and Central station.
I still haven't organised accommodation for the second week of my Melbourne trip, the dancing part. Frankly, I just can't face it right now. So I'll figure it out later.

Ok, I have to go get it all together.
