The camel's name would be Joseph by the way.

Quick one before I head into the slumber world.

Yesterday (i.e. 30 minutes ago) was April Fools Day and I may or may not have sent around a leave of absence email to some friends at work saying that I had been recruited by aliens to go to their homeworld and join their underground resistance movement against the evil Neosapians (random exo-squad 80s cartoon reference there), and that before that I'd be fulfilling my life-long ambition of trekking from Melbourne to Tsing Tsao, China by camel. Yes, a camel. And yes, Tsing Tao is not a location but a brand of Chinese beer.

And sadly some people didn't really get the joke.

I really, really hope that I don't have to walk this back when I get into the office in 8.5 hours time. It would just be sad for all parties involved.

So what should I do? I'm thinking of just overplaying the joke just in case some people didn't get it the first time. Cos we all know that I'm the fool anyway.

Ohh freaky, listening to "The Animals Were Gone" on my itunes and just when I wrote 'fool' in that last sentence, Damien Rice actually sang the word 'fool'.

No seriously, how cool was that?
