He was reeling, more than a little bit, and he actually put his arm out and propped himself up against the door, hanging his head and breathing steadily. When he had a better hold of himself, he turned to find Miranda rifling through the drawers of his kitchen. "What in the world made you...

It was on the final day of the conference that I drank too much with my 'conference friend', Liesel. We were both aged in our forties, with careers in workplace health and safety, and we'd found ourselves at a three day event in a tiny beach town in North Queensland partially out of a desire to increase our professional knowledge, and largely out of a desire...
