Byron Bay Part 2
In my last entry I talked about finding some sculpture that I was going to post separately, well, here it is as a photo essay! This was on the foreshore in Byron Bay just up the road from the main pub strip. The plaque (below) says that the “Tree Theatre” was donated to Byron Bay…

Byron Bay Part 1
I was recently invited to visit Byron Bay for a little over a week in exchange for dog and plant-sitting duties. I arrived on Monday 28th November.

Bravado
I had an appointment with my psychologist yesterday. Sessions with her are always really difficult and yesterday she told me that I use bravado, that I have a persona, to cope with the fact that I don’t like people to know that I’m vulnerable. As irritating as it is to admit, I think she’s right.…

New hair, new me
One of the first things I decided to do in my new life was to get a hair cut. I have really strong feelings about my hair and when I go through big changes one of my first instincts is to cut my hair. Whether it’s after a break-up, or as a celebration for finishing…
