why wy?

Saturday was the coldest day in Melbourne in six years (maximum of 9.8 deg), as well as the coldest August day in 26 years. Strangely, the flowers are out and chanting spring spring spring. I heard a different chant at my very first footy match that night: Melbourne vs Sydney. By the way, Melbourne is a regular team, just like St Kilda or Carlton; it's not two cities against each other. And to further confuse you, the Sydney team used to be based in Melbourne under a different name. It's hard to explain footy when I'm still not too sure about the game, but it's basically 32 men trying to kick or toss a ball through two poles. There were a couple of scuffles, but no-one got beat up bad.

new words of the week:
simpson's sky (from joe): pattern of fluffy clouds against a blue sky like in the opening credits of the cartoon.
tetris: to pack as many things in a small space
eg we bought so much food that we had to tetris the freezer to fit everything in.
