Cosmic push….

So, I walked into work and one of the zombies said ‘Customs wants to speak to you’. He looked excited like I was going to get in trouble. It’s the most emotion, unless food is involved, that I have ever seen from him. Anyway I rang the Customs dude and was informed to ring a Customs clearance dude and I had the most fascinating discussion with this man. Customs is, as we know, a very precise business and the people who are in it are no nonsense precise people who are, in essence, protecting the country. Weirdly enough, something I plan to personally indulge in next year, fell into the area of this man’s expertise and I picked his brains on regulations and requirements. He was most obliging and said I could contact him if I got into any trouble or needed help. I shall.

I am a great believer that people and things come to you when you are at a point in your life when you’re trying to decide which path to take. It’s like a cosmic push man… 

Eclipsing...

So, I had this brilliant idea that I would spend my birthday on a tropical island off the coast of Cairns basically because I could, it would get me out of work and I convinced myself I was worth the ferry trip over and a night in a cabin on the beach. Great idea right? Snorkelling, feeding fish, swimming and basically doing stuff all. So I went to book it on line. Guess what? That bloody Solar Eclipse is on at the same time in November and Cairns and Far North Queensland is the best place to be to experience it. Apparently, my birthday is second best to a cosmic occurrence. Puts me in my place don’t it?
