Got Covid this week, been inside since Friday. Hating it. Woke up today feeling a bit better which is good, actually in a pretty good mood. Learned some stuff about blood vessels in the nose. Thought about my feelings etc. Overall though, hating it.

I've been in Sydney all weekend. On Thursday night I got lost on a hiking trail, and then spent about half an hour wandering around a golf course in the dark trying to find the way to my AirBnB. My phone was on less than 10% and fading, and I genuinely considered whether I should just sleep on the golf course. I didn't though, but the AirBnB I arrived at was awful, so I left the next morning anyway.

Last night I drove to Lorne and slept in the back of a rented car so that this morning I could wake up on the beach and go for a swim. I've been feeling shit all weekend, and about half an hour into the drive I finally figured out why! I had a spectacular long weekend full of all this amazing stuff, but it took me untangling my dumb-ass feelings to be able to step back and appreciate it! Hooray!

The Adelaide Fringe run is done, and I'm back at home in Melbourne. The show still isn't where I want it to be, although I am happy with where it's going - it's just hard to figure out what it is exactly that I'm trying to talk about! I gave it a crack here today, I dunno. I'm figuring it out slowly.

Woke up feeling heavy and in a weird mood, scrolled the internet for a while until I found some shit to get angry at, turned the mic on and away we went! Fun stuff on the Instagram this week if you wanna check out the posts I was talking about. Also here's the Birthday Drill-o-Gram vid link. Love youse all!

Thursday night a guy with a knife scared the shit out of me at the tram stop next to Adelaide Hospital. I wish this city was designed in a way that encouraged more people to walk around so it didn't feel so empty, maybe stuff like that wouldn't happen so much. Then again Aidan, it's not, and maybe you'd be happier just accepting that, rather than ranting about it every time something bad happens. This is the conversation I have with myself most days.

I'm using the camera I bought to film the podcast this week for YouTube. I'm not convinced it's a good idea, but we'll see I guess. If I can do it with a minimal amount of extra work, I guess it could be beneficial. Clearly something's got me feeling angry this week, because that's all I was on the podcast today. Feels good though. Yummy.

It was my birthday on Saturday, but somehow I started this podcast not remembering, and feeling like I had nothing to talk about. I did end up finding what I feel is a pretty good answer to a question my piano teacher posed me when I saw her a few weeks ago. Pretty unfocussed stuff this week, but worth it for some moments of genuine discovery, I reckon!

Today I'm going to spend most of the afternoon captioning a 12-minute video of my stand up for TikTok. The people have asked and so I, their faithful servant, will deliver. I also ask you, my doting adherents, to help me by setting your alarm to 7:30pm tonight (Melbourne time), going on my Instagram stories, clicking through to the TikTok when I post it, and sharing it with everyone you know. I'm trying to game the system, come join me. Come!

I've made a decision! For the next couple years until I film another special, I'm going to make a concerted effort to build a following online around my stand up. I think I can see how it might work, and then hopefully in two years' time when I put another special out, there'll be heaps more people ready to watch it, and it'll reach a wider audience. The problem with that for now though, is that engaging with the social media apps leaves me wide open to being sucked in to that vortex of scrolling cynical, valueless content that people put up to steal your attention and waste your time. That side of it is probably going to upset me.
