Seems that winter has well and truly set in.  Every thought of going for a walk, heading outside seems to be followed by more rain and a resolve to stay inside and enjoy the warmth.
However, if you are like me and prone to cabin fever here's a few things on this weekend that might take your fancy:

Mind, Body and Spirit Festival - need to detox anyone???
 Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre
1 Convention Centre Place South Wharf VIC 3006

The 51st Speculative Fiction Convention - for all the weird and wonderful including Sci Fi
 Rydges on Swanston
701 Swanston Street
Carlton 3053

The Melbourne International Jazz Festival - music for the soul 

Melbourne Recital Centre
31 Sturt Street Southbank VIC 3006

 Journey Through the Machine - Animation by young ones - something for the kids!

Artplay, Birrarung Marr Batman Avenue Melbourne VIC 3000

Just checking the weather and it looks like another day of wet and grey and then we'll round up our long weekend with a nice sunny day.  Might be a good chance to hang out, watch some movies, play some games, sleeping, and spend time feeling healthy and enjoying the chance of hangover free weekends!
And to those nice bottles of red smiling at me from the pantry, you've been sitting there for awhile now and you can sit there for a bit longer!
There's a break from Auskick this weekend, so it'll be interesting to catch up with others next week and see if others are feeling the same as me!
