I was so scared taking the plane to Melbourne because I still have this cough, left over from last November. I had my doctor write me a letter saying it was an acute cough and nothing to do with the Corona Virus. Luckily, I got through Melbourne Airport without coughing.
However, I was wearing this clumpy ankle brace (stupid sprained ankle). The brace had the maker's logo in some sort of metal on the front of it and I got stopped in Melbourne as I went through the x-ray machine. Staff came running. My brace was swabbed for explosves, then I was taken to the side and swabbed twice more for drugs. I was highly indignant. I would have enjoyed it more if they had been filming for "Border Security". Darn.
Melbourne, itself, wasnt that spectacular for me because I couldn't walk very well. I went to three shows, two of which I had a seat in the dress circle. And no lift to get up there. I tell you, my four readers, that I took for.....ever to get up and down those stairs.
Tell you what, though - thank you, Thin Lizzy concealer: you saved my days, otherwise I would have been walking through Melbourne with two black eyes.

This weekend is the first anniversary of the horrendous killings at the Mosque in Christchurch. I cannot understand how some people can have no empathy for others. My heart goes out to the community.
