It's the apocalypse!
It's wild in Sydney tonight with massive storms, flooding, and gale force winds. It's the first time in a long time I've actually been scared of a storm. That might have something to do with the huge branch that came whipping down the street, to the accompaniment of car alarms and sirens, and have it smash into the bars on my living room window. Thank Chuck for the bars or it would have come crashing through the glass. Before I had the chance to run in and completely close my bedroom window, the wind blew a painting off the wall and knocked down everything on the dresser. Poor Pixel freaked out so bad I almost had to peel her off the ceiling.
There are trees and powerlines down all over the city, and in the nearby Blue Mountains, the town of Blackheath is blanketed in snow...and it's Spring. Hey,
meus_venator, still want to come to Aus for a vacation? ;)
Here's what's happening around my hometown. PS: Now I have proof that Miley Cyrus is the antichrist - she turns up in Sydney and this shit happens...

I live in the inner city on the ground floor so the bars are an absolute must for safety reasons. Where I am is pretty damn great now but this was an extremely bad neighbourhood twenty years ago - probably Sydney's equivalent to what you read about places like Harlem. We still have an unsavoury element around but the area has been gentrified and it's pretty fabulous. After seven years here I'm used to the bars but when I first moved in it felt very weird to be in a cute little apartment that had windows like a jail cell.
