For the first time in about four and a half years, I am going to the airport. To catch a plane.

Team, I just took the six-year old (and the babby) to a birthday party and…it was a thing.

We start with the entry signage. I come across that and think “well that’s elaborate, but I guess if you want to splash out on a big entrance thing that’s cool.”

Then you go inside.

Inside was a jumping castle.

Not just any jumping castle. A jumping castle with the kid’s fucking name on it. A personal jumping castle.

Jumping castle with the birthday kid’s name on it.

Why are we talking about swallowing micro SD cards?

I mean, everyone should give it a go at least once. But the sudden popularity is surprising.

What I love about reading job ads is coming away having no idea what at all the company is that’s advertising does.

At least in my line of work it does explain why they need a marketing manager.

Right. I have now worked out how to over-engineer the DJing/sound stuff for the kiddo's birthday party on the weekend using existing equipment and an $80 outlay for Rogue Amoeba's Audio Hijhack software.

When you go and look at the map, you can really see how much of a nothingburger this whole noise thing is.

The vast majority of the land under the flight paths is either empty or industrial park hellscape.

The kiddo got a bean bag chair for Chrimbo. Erin purchased beans with which to fill it.

They started the process five minutes ago in the kiddo’s bedroom.

Guess what happened next.

Seeing that another cohort is aging out of the Hottest 100 (and Triple J listening more generally) and, as a millennial, let me just say: welcome.

Increasingly looking like I'll be going to Melbourne for work in late Feb...getting the overnight train actually works out brilliantly in terms of timing.

Me: [going through the first tutorial bits of Starfield]

Kiddo: Is that Earth?

Me: No

K: It looks like Earth.

M: It’s not.

K: Well I think it is.

M: Cool, but it’s not. It’s not Earth.

K: How do you know?

M: Because that’s not the premise of the fucking game. Also it explicitly said so and I’d be able to tell you more if you shut up and let me listen.

Right. Eighty (yes, 80) party bags made up for the kiddo’s blowout tomorrow.

Erin is doing the cake and biscuits. I have two (2) freezers (none of which are overly large, granted) full of party pies and sausage rolls. There’s a wheel of Brie the size of a hubcap in the fridge. And plenty of other assorted nonsense.

I am having An Drink.

Babby has not had a lot of sleep today.

Babby was very overtired and upset.

Babby was sat in my lap watching the F3 race.

Babby cheered up considerably and was waving at the cars.

Home in time to watch the last practice session of the day from the Bathurst 12 Hour.

Beer is chilling in the fridge.

Once the cars are done, quick run to the under-new-ownership takeaway shop in the next village to discover what the quality of their burgers and chips are.

Then it's time for the Full Rod Steiger.
