Looking Forwards…..

Over the coming months there are a couple of events I am really looking forwards to….

Alain De Botton is coming to Australia on a tour, promoting his new book. He will be speaking in Melbourne, and securing tickets for that lecture will be a top priority for me when they go on sale next week.

“Tangential Surrealist Comedian” Ross Noble is performing in Bunbury and Jane and I have tickets, we have seen him a couple of times and he is always entertaining.

As part of  plan to destress after a simply horrible couple of weeks, I have also booked a cabin in the bush near Denmark. We plan to load up the Ural with Lego, an iPod, and a suitcase full of evening wear and spend a few days chilling .

Next week also sees Jane and I celebrating a rare event. An actual Wedding Anniversary. Dinner somewhere special may be on the cards. Getting Married on the 29th of February was a great idea (Well Done Jane)

The chance to share my story with Colleagues at work is also coming up. A change of format from a speech  to a relaxed interview should make this fun. That one of the nicest people I know will be doing the interview means we should also have some fun.

There is also another event on the horizon. Its a big one, I’m really looking forwards to this one. I’m going to be my WHOLE SELF.

I’m looking forwards to not hiding, I’m looking forwards to experiencing PRIDE.  I’m looking forwards to digging out my Purple Boots and stepping out of the Wentworth Hotel and showing Perth, WA, and the World who I really am.  I’m not changing, I’m just going to be my Whole Self, all of  the time, and everywhere.

    Well….I’m quite nervous about meeting you Suzanne.
    Just thought I’d say.
    I’m looking forward to meeting you as Suzanne but I worry about my preconceptions and old school prejudices.
    I haven’t had the pleasure or honour of meeting anybody that has made the enormously challenging transition that you have.
    When I was a young bloke, this was considered at the least unusual, at the worst, fucking weird, otherworldly to my experience and my experience is not inconsiderable.
    I’ve been invited to participate in a life changing event of a very personal nature. I’m honoured, (theres the honour word again) that you found in me, a person you hardly know, to share in your journey in the very early stages. You must have found me to be a trustworthy person, a person worthy to open up to, a person that you felt safe with….. more honour for me…
    I can’t imagine your trepidation and nervousness when you decided it was time to lay bare your emotions and fears and scatter your very personal emotions and your desires and your whole family to the wide wide world. I was unprepared for the emotions that I felt.
    Thats why Im nervous about meeting you Suzanne…. But looking forward to the moment immensely
