Income

A 4-post collection

I Like Fridays

But only because I don't have to drive so much. Just one round trip, but one hell of a round trip.

Thank goodness that listening to My Brother, My Brother, and Me keeps my brain pan operating whilst I haul my arse halfway to Brisbane and back again.

It's a really long drive since it's also rush hour. An ironic name if there ever was one.
