He’s not sad…..he’s got Hay Fever.

Daily Discussion: About to commit treason?

Ok, so I'm not about to go bite Tony Abbott or betray national secrets. However, what I'm about to say is tantamount to treason in most Australian eyes.

I am starting to hate the Melbourne Cup.

Why? Well... My best-beloved and soulmate works for an online gambling company and Melbourne Cup is their biggest traffic event. And the most likely to make their servers catch fire because of overuse.

The entire nation stops to watch this thing.

People who are normally not gamblers will have a dollar 'flutter' on this race.

So basically, being an online gambling corp during Melbourne Cup day is kind of like being a feminist blog speaking out against Gamergate. You can expect to be attacked.

Preparation for Melbourne Cup started as early as April. For a race that happens in November. So for eight months out of the year, Beloved works their socks off in the hopes of not catching flack come the big day.

Eight months of getting servers, installing servers, making sure they behave, installing updates, making patches and, lately, fending off rivals who've decided that sabotaging the competition is way more economical than, say, being actually competitive.

Which means that my darling dearest did not get home until the wee small hours of this morning. As in "technically" today, early.

But it will all be over by Tuesday afternoon, which means we can grasp for some semblance of normalcy in the intervening four months before the next eight months of prep.

It's very unpatriotic to despise Melbourne Cup... but if it wasn't there? I'd have more snuggle time with my hubby and less sleep issues.

Am I horrible?
