Snake, happy and two songs

, , , ...

After deciding I had done absolutely no exercise in who-knows-how-long, I told myself that I had to do some exercise or I'd end up looking like a lump of lard. Each day for the past four days, I've been walking up a hill. It makes me tired and my legs get sore, but it's good exercise :smile:

Saturday’s walk was particularly exciting. I learnt that you should never walk on little tracks by yourself. Why? You might get bitten by a snake! My dad stopped to tie up his shoe on a rock...and there was an Eastern Brown Snake (second most deadly snake in the world :eyes:) behind the rock.

My dad had his camera with him but the shot he took isn’t the best.. I guess when a deadly snake is in front of you, you don’t really have time to work out the ‘rule of 3rds’, calculate where any shadows will be, set up a tripod etc etc.

I finished work at 1am this morning. I started at 6pm and it wasn't very busy so they let me go home. I would have stayed there for extra money though! I got home and my dad and I were talking in the kitchen:

*Kimbers is happy and laughing*
The dad of Kimbers: Were you drinking at work?
Kimbers: No.
The dad of Kimbers: Oh...you just seem really happy!
