What Are You Looking At? Weekly Link Roundup!

It's been so hot here in Melbourne this week, I've tried to avoid that horrible place known as Outside.  No avoiding this week though as I start my new job.  I'll have to get back into the habit of getting dressed, leaving the house and talking to people.

Here are some of the places I've been checking out online this week:

• Mucky Melbourne explores the steamy underbelly of Melbourne history.  I love reading about the history of porn cinemas and strippers in this town and hopefully there will many more stories to come.

• Since I've been working on a raunchy story set in an ice cream van this week (summer does that to you), I needed to research - the van bit if not the raunch.  These vintage ice cream vans are as cute as can be.  I want one.

• Neon signs of New York are awesome.  I love signs.  I love the lit up city at night in Tokyo.  I especially love Art Deco signs though. I must go to New York one day.

• I really wanted to not like the movie, Sakuran, when my friend recommended it to me but it's such a beautiful movie.  And it stars Anna Tsuchiya who is totally hot.

• For those new year's resolutions, how to lose weight the sparkly way is worth a read.  Who doesn't want to incorporate sparkly shoes, champagne and dirty dancing into their weight loss routine?
