i have hidden a dead spider on your desk

not me, not my desk. This curious message was left on a post-it note on a colleagues computer. I have simulated:

No spider was obviously in attendance. Bizzare.

Which brings me to this weeks top five: THINGS THAT HAPPENED TO ME OR PEOPLE I KNOW THIS WEEK. (NB: That was number one so there are only four remaining.)

2. The guy that sits next to me at work started wearing mascara. For about three days he alleged that it was just left over from a mysterious dress up party in which he wore an outfit that cannot be revealed except that it involved mascara and tin foil. It has now been too long for this to be true. I have suggested that he shower more or shower more vigorously. Another perturbed colleague (so many colleagues!), keeps asking 'are you in a play?' and now refers to him as 'the pirate'. I should make a point of saying that Planet X is a Council and not routinely populated by rockstars or tim minchin/artistic types. To illustrate - if Planet X were item of clothing it would probably be a sensible neutral-coloured cardigan.

Gosh, top fives are harder than they sound, aren't they?

Wowsers! Home ownership:

MONA amazing-ness. Unfortunately this is not well captured by the following two pictures. Perhaps the 180 life-size plaster casts of women's vaginas would have done this better? Or for fans of the less erotic, the enormous 46m x 12m Sidney Nolan? There was also Egyptian mummies. MONA is awesome, disgusting, hilarious, fun and confronting at the same time.

This is a house with a disproportionately large hedge I saw in Hobart. I have seriously never seen more dramatic hedge:house ratio. Very impressive.

Street art in Hobart. Associated signage informed me that this sculpture/barbed wire thing marked the spot where, in 1923, a rich man asked the Council to reserve a tract of land for the public. The Council said no. This is apparently a) worth remembering and b) inspirational to the Artist. It is unclear if the orange stuff is meant to be attached or serving some health/safety related purpose.

As you can see, life has been busy.
