So I don't know how many of you are aware of the flooding that's been happening over in the north-east of Australia but pretty much half of Queensland is currently underwater.

My best friend who lives in Brisbane is currently one suburb away from being evacuated but is holed up with all of her pets because she can't leave them and she can't take them with her to a rescue centre. I also just found out that the guys in Queensland who we call up for technical support at work (and various other stuff) have been evacuated from the Brisbane CBD which means my job has just been made like, ten times harder.

But it's nowhere near as hard as what these poor sods are going through in Queensland which is why I'm offering myself up as a writer for the floor relief fic fundraiser over at waltzmatildah's journal.

So please, please guys - go and bid, or offer yourself as a writer if you write fic. This whole thing is such a huge blow - they've barely recovered from the last bad floods they had and it's even closer to my heart being as my best mate is currently stuck right in the middle of it, as is her mum.

Heh. Yeah. I was obsessively checking facebook during the worst of it to make sure she and hers were all okay over there :P

Do so. I'm sure she would be thrilled to hear from you :)
