I won't deny that I've missed him very much & despite my love of the fast-paced city, I can't wait to get on that plane!<br />
<br />
I miss my wardrobe & my own bed & my stable Internet connection.<br />
<br />
Also on today's agenda is a rather unique & unusual event for little old <a href="http://en.travelnt.com/explore/alice-springs.aspx">Alice</a> - a competitive<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed_martial_arts"> Mixed Martial Arts</a> fight. The festivities kick off at around 5PM at the Casino with a meal & drinks (cocktails for yours truly) before the fights start up. Sixteen amateur bouts with most fighters brand new to the sport - very much looking forward to it!<br />
<br />
That particular topic got my thinking about one of my favourite movies, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fight_Club_(film)">Fight Club</a> (Masterpiece of 1999), & a very awesome <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/71364607/fight-club-poster-18x24?ref=sr_list_2&ga_search_query=fight+poster&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_facet=handmade">poster</a> drawn by <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/71364607/fight-club-poster-18x24?ref=sr_list_2&ga_search_query=fight+poster&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_facet=handmade">Adam Juresko</a>, available on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/people/TheArtOfAdamJuresko">his Esty site</a>.<br />

Perhaps it was the squishy old apples packed for lunch all through school that had turned me off, but I'm definitely re-converted to having apples as a daily snack.<br />

<br />
Although there are plenty of pretty florals, floating chiffon layers & beautiful champagne silks available in store, the hem length - or lack thereof - is really rather frustrating.<br />
<br />
Yesterday I was out & about in Rundle Mall, Adelaide, looking a new skirt for the Winter. After about 5 hours & many, many stores I was still left empty handed thanks to the constant issue with hemlines..<br />
<br />
A knee length skirt is far sexier than bare skin for miles...<br />

It wasn't until just prior to closing time that I found the perfect skirt from a little boutique... It's champagne silk with a black lace overlay & vertical black silk ribbons.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', fantasy;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Very much like my mother, one of my first favourite drinks is </span><a href="http://www.adoremidori.com/#/home"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Midori</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">It's a very pretty bright, green coloured, muskmelon flavored liqueur made by Suntory. It is manufactured in Mexico, though it was originally made in Japan until 1987. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', fantasy;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There is a whole flavour range under the same brand but the gorgeous green stuff is simply the best.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', fantasy;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I am, in fact, drinking a bit of it now mixed with lemon soda & orange juice.. nothing better on a Sunday morning!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', fantasy;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here are a few of my other favourite recipe's complete with pictures <a href="http://www.midori-world.com/cocktail-recipe/">Midori World</a>.

It's a big event for the Red Centre & I'm looking forward to making the most of it!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">There are a few key dates in my diary over the next month; Girls Day Out, Ladies Day & Young Guns Day as well as the main <a href="http://www.alicespringsturfclub.org.au/">XXXX Gold Cup Carnival</a> at the very end of the month of festivities. Whether I am able to attend all of the above is a different story... but I'm certainly prepared in the dress department!</span><br />

</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">There are a number of fashion parades & similar events to keep me occupied.. I'm in dire hopes of finding fellow dress lovers to make friends with but have been pre-warned that the standards in rural NT are not exactly as high as the Gold Coast... </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Regardless, there is a single milliner's shop in town & this week I am working on the accessories for my dresses. I have a few ideas in mind & am after a rather classic look with a few kooky touches to put my own personal stamp on the look. I'm still waiting on materials to arrive but am hoping to have pictures ready in a week or so! </span><br />
<br />
In the mean time, I have purchased some handmade accessories from a South Korean store on eBay.. they're rather cute...<br />

It turns out that my bad luck with travel continues! Here is a rough outline of how the trip panned out;<br />
<br />
Day 1 - Departed the Gold Coast at 2AM to get an 'early' start and make the most of the day. By 4PM we had driven over 1,400KM's & arrived in a small town called Winton, only to be informed that the roads ahead had been closed due to recent rainfall & that we would be staying in town overnight.<br />
<br />
Day 2 - Departed Winton to continue on our journey West, stopping occasionally for flooding closures. In the afternoon we had travelled a further 700KM & arrived in an even smaller town on the border of Queensland & the Northern Territory called Camooweal. Upon the sight of dozens of road trains & cars alike, we knew the road had been closed again & that we would be stuck for another night at the pub.<br />
<br />
Day 3 - Spent the day exploring Camooweal's only shop, a petrol station & the grounds around the pub. All other guests were in the same situation as us, so we made friends quickly & enjoyed many drinks as well as a few good games of pool.<br />
<br />
Day 4 - With continuing road closures we made the frustrating decision to back-track by over 2,000kms to the Gold Coast. The entire day was spent on the road through flood waters, rain & coming close to hitting wildlife during the night before attempting to have a sleep in the car around midnight... unsuccessfully!<br />
<br />
Day 5 - Continued driving constantly through night with many close calls & limited visibility due to more rain. We nearly ran out of petrol at one stage & couldn't find any open petrol stations with food so were relieved to find a McDonald's at around 6AM in the morning. We covered the full 2,000kms within 23hrs & had a long, long sleep through the day to recover!<br />
<br />
Now that I'm back in Alice Springs full-time I can most certainly write some more!<br />
