Want to suck my pony?

I wish I could illustrate this, but I can't, cos guess what? I'm updating from a gay pub in Lismore! They have internet! I have beer! (Ms J just took a photo to illustrate later) The world is a happy place!

The past week has been super. Went snorkelling at Clovelly, had a lovely family Christmas and then an orphan's recovery, complete with midnight swim. My loot is very exciting, including but not limited to: lovely perfume, books, lingerie, a soldering iron, an assortment of candy in cute, reusable containers, and most exciting of all: A My Little Pony lolly-pop holder, the lolly pop rising from her head like a disturbing but delicious tumor. She'll go great with my (disturbing little girl) NY outfit.

The drive up here was long, but surprisingly efficient thanks to Mr Lukely kicking us out of bed at an ungodly hour of the morning. I slept most of the way, which is the only way to tolerate long trip, as far as I'm concerned. The rest was loud, hilariously gay sing-a-longs. We're sharing a lovely little cabin with an unfortunate lack of aircon. We spent last night watching spectacular lightning roll in from the south.

We're thinking of staying a little while. It's so nice here. I'm looking forward to the party, but it's by no means the only reason I'm excited about staying here.
