i'm baaack.

had a week off work after easter to chill the hell out and it worked a treat. am feeling much better about most things....

-sharon jones and the dap kings was absolutely amazing, one of the best gigs i've been to. if you can see them, do. she's one hell of a woman and the band are some of the best funk players...

it is anzac day tomorrow. i won't go on about how un-digger-friendly you are because some veteran has probably already honed in on you and smacked you one.

well don't tell me you were outside the show and get me all excited and then say you didn't go in! it doesn't matter anyway because the people i was with hate fashion people and we were only there for five minutes. but the important thing was that if you went you would have seen the neckpiece up close and if you slid your eyes a little to the bottom right you would have seen a little red sticker that meant the piece sold. exciting, huh? and all you got was a kiss on the cheek!

i went to the zoo today. it was neat to see the animals but it was depressing too because some of the animals looked bored and their surroundings unnatural.

-i'm not a morning person. i ease into the day, with my set routiene. press snooze button on clock radio for half an hour. struggle out of bed, into clothes, down hallway, slump at table, eat weetbix. ride or drive to work, have cup of tea, then, and only then i might be ready to converse with another human being. any time before that,...

so you understand the grumps too! i got over them mid-afternoon after i had done some work and felt better about myself. i am not a morning person either so i allow myself a good sleep-in to cope... like you!

i am going to canberra for a few days over easter and so looking forward to that! the dreamboat's mother lives there and we are always so spoilt and well-fed whenever we visit.

a saturday night date, huh? how will you wow her or will you rely on your charming wits alone?

pottsie music picks for the day:

the bamboos, step it up. awesome melbourne funk.

alice russell: 5 foot english lass who sings like a 6 ft american black woman. her most recent album has production from TM Juke a rockin hiphop producer so is an awesome blend of 60's funk and hiphop sounds

Herbert, bodily functions: classic soulful glitchy electronica

hi

work, work, work... can't wait to get some time off

my dream has changed from going and looking for work in LA to going and looking for work in New York, i've got more contacts and friends there. some day.....

i just don't know when to jump? when to get out of this okay-ish job of mine and take a punt... i kind of...

marni:
you do not know when to jump? your answer is in the same paragraph! it is scary, yes, but is the jump worth it? double yes! can you take a course to learn the sound program instead of waiting for your work to get it in? do you think you will ever be fully prepared for a move to ny? i doubt it but don't let that stop you because it is not like you have been moaning and groaning about a change of scenery ever since i 'friended' you on here. you know, just saying.

i am not going to 34b burlesque anymore. i am going to that tapas and jazz night hellfaerie posted about in sgau. come along to that if you are free, otherwise i will see you at sg burlesque at the annandale, right?

i just read your list of favourite films. don't you like kill bill 2?
marni:
i know what you mean. most of my friends have full-time jobs and they are raking in the dollars and here i am still studying. but when i really think about it, i wouldn't want to be anywhere else. i will get there in my own time. same with you, in your own time.

oh can this be? will we meet in a room full of pervy punters and a stage loaded with hot girls? yay!

i love my postman.

just when i think some guy on ebay has ripped me off, i am awoken by a cheery double ring on my old style doorbell and there he is wearing his 80's wrap around oakleys, short shorts and a grin, and holding a box of records. what a way to start the day.

this morning i got 30 (!!) james brown...

hello!

just got home from a reasonably large night of eating and drinking. first stop was dinner at jazzushi, the combo jazz and sushi joint in surrey hills, which is not nearly as good as it sounds. around the table there were 11 people, 5 couples and me. two of whom are ex-girlfriends sitting with their new fiances. there was literally 10 people in couples...

i have a friend's birthday dinner this saturday and the dreamboat and i were going to go but last night he says he is going down to canberra this weekend and can't make the party and i was a bit upset but then i thought of your journal and i didn't want to be one of those girls who can't be without her dreamboat when she goes out and i got over it. sorry about the long sentence, but thanks for the entry!

kiss
marni:
i was so going to go to purple sneakers last friday but i got dragged off to a half price cocktails night instead. i got so trashed, more than usual because i had the flu too!

i know, one of these days it will happen and it will be the nicest surprise ever.

hyenahell:


i would have thought it'd be kind of defiant, like fuck you hurricane we can still party...



It was like that, but there was also an air of sadness that seems unshakable. Everyone's a luttle quieter, a little more tired-looking, you know? I'm very torn about it, but I suppose I was when I lived there before the hurricane. I had a love/hate relationship with the city, as I've said many times before. And now I feel in part that I should have stayed, and I do want to go back and live there again. I think mostly that the sentiment is sincere, although no doubt influenced by the fact that I absolutely hate where I'm living now. However, another part of me feels like I've left, I'm gone, and I don't have a place there anymore. It's a very confounding matter, to say the least.
