Good luck with your teeth and exams!
Been getting another cold. Rain's been as terrible today as it's been for the past two weeks.

One week to go until the first exam.
With that other tooth, the dentist, after careful study of the x-ray, had decided that the nerve seemed healthy and it was just a crack causing my
problems so instead of root canal treatment, which is quite a chore, I've had a band put on the tooth instead. That didn't even require anaesthetic,
was relatively cheap and seems to have gone well. We'll see. So far, I've been able to fully enjoy eating again, which is a problem in itself.
So what's going on with the weather up there, we're the ones, down here, who are having winter at the moment. It's been quite cold in the last couple
of days, Australia's version of cold that is, around 4C overnight.

Right now it's sunny and dry, but with risks of rain and storm. We've had over 120 mm of rain in the first two weeks of June - normal would be 70 for
the entire month. There have been numerous floods in the region, no casualties fortunately but the economical damage to the agriculture here is
running in the millions of euros.

Why is all the Zappa Family Feuding making me so f*ing tired of Zappa? I can't bring myself to buying any of the new albums, let alone visit the
concerts.

In Impossible News:
The Zappa-forum is getting updated and Mikey decided to let us know in advance. He advised us to backup our PMs, which I just did (Kirk ol'boy...).

This morning I bumped into the very first woman I approached in the street last summer, I hadn't seen her for at least 8 months, we had a little talk,
she's very sweet, kind and beautiful, too bad she's still with her boyfriend.
But I'm glad I saw her, it started my day pretty joyfully. I'll probably meet
her again in the near future since she works close to where I live.

Where do we begin? Ehhhh... let's see...
Dweezil published something because he has to change the name of his band. This unearthed some conflict that has been going between the various
members of the ZFT - apparently Dweezil had to pay a lot of money for his use of the name Zappa Plays Zappa to the ZFT, and hand over all the
merchandise profits, which then proceeded to use the money to sue people left and right. It ends with ZPZ now being called "Dweezil Zappa Plays
Whatever The F@%K He Wants" and his tour is called "The Cease & Desist Tour".
I finally lost my Dweezil fanhood when he proved to be very arrogant in his blogs towards some fellow Zappa fans, and in his dealing with this I am
convinced that that was a good move. It's been like looking into a sewer.
Frank's music's still awesome though...

Not sure when I'll be going but it'll take at least a week...
Just then I typed awake. Which I am, but barely. I went to bed but forgot to close the bedroom window, and as such was bothered by mosquitoes. Was
kept up most of the night and woke up before the alarm.
zzzzzzz
