Had a small-scale shopping spree yesterday at Minotaur and JB Hi-Fi, and got my samosa, in the end. It didn't taste as good as it smelled, but it hit the spot all the same. So I got a pile of new comics from Min', some CDs and two DVDs from JB.

And I sorted out some stuff that needed urgent sorting-out.

Oh, and Mixing With...

i wanted a mark ryden that was $5500 last time i was there, and i had the money available at the time, ended up spending it on air con & security screens for the house, was also looking at a shag print for my mum for xmas, didnt spend the $750 but wish i did

Birthday was very jolly, once again I shall say a great big thankyou to everyone for being luffly enough to stop by and say the HB thing.
kiss
Batman was pretty damn good, the trippy scenes rocked and the sound was awesome. It was a bit corny at times but then, it is a superhero movie and it's sort of expected, I guess. Beh.
Free dinner...

Oh, yeah the kitties are super fun.

I don't have a mad aunt (well, I do... but she's actually a little dangerous). Anyway... I do just fine drinking on my own, thankyou.

AAAAHHH!!! Birthday!!! Thanks to all for their lovely birthday wishes, I woke up in a very good mood so hopefully the rest of the day will be as jolly. Going to see Batman Begins tonight with Hales, which will be super-duper. Had a drink with some of the uni kiddies too, which was nice. I need food.
Big hugs to everyone!
Now I have to...

I'm a bit scattered. The partee was most excellent, in many many ways. The hilarity! The Suns! The naughty things! The random people! siiiigh.
Twas a good night had by all. I'm pissed off that I got too hammered and didn't take any photos, though.
I need bed and a wash, I smell like an ashtray that got jizzed in...blargh.

There's a big ol' house party tonight, huzzah! Their house is such a 20-something bachelor pad, it's hilarious. Perfect party house, wouldn't want to live there. I will probably act like a trollope.
The machines were going across the road this morning again, waking me up at 8:30 all paranoid that my TV was going to fall and break. It's Saturday, fercryinoutloud.
Today, I call...

Awesome on all counts. The workers must have a really shit union if they're working Saturdays. Of course, they might just be the honest, hardworking men and women of the Australian construction industry.

Have one that is good.
ratboy:
Sitting on the couch all day (despite haevy machinery working outside) and watching Family Guy is a perfectly acceptable way of spending a Melbourne Winter Saturday!

Queuing up all the episodes you can find on a Friday night and watching them until you fall asleep and continuing to watch them upon awakening is probably going a little bit too far!

Went into the city today to have coffee (read: gin & tonic) with my dear chum Nicholas. It was lovely and we went shopping afterwards...I bought a few comics and cheap DVDs.
Twas a jolly time, and we made snide comments about others, which is always fun. I tried to make Nicholas tell the bargirl at e55 that she had lovely breasts (seeing as he...

Dad's leaving for Sydney tonight and he just came to my door and gave me spindles of CDs and DVDs, and said he ordered Mixing With Your Mind and is getting me my own electronics toolkit!!! AAAAHHHHH!!! Me so happy!
biggrin biggrin biggrin
I think he's a bit chuffed that the electronics stuff made me happy. Stuff vaguely in common, I guess. Warms the heart, it does.

A dangling qualifier. DANGLING! Get it?

ISP went silly yesterday and I lost Internet, but now it's better. Though Thunderbird still won't let me send mail, something to do with the SMTP, which I've tried fixing but to no avail. It should work, but it doesn't.

It's miserable outside. Across the road in the...

Blarg, it's all cold and windy outside. Ebay sales have knocked off about a third of my bank debt, which is super-duper, ain't no storm trooper.

Nothing very engaging to report, learning about old versions of Protools was not what I was in the mood for this morning.
Also, a bunch of audio newbs started today, which was unexpected. One of them scabbed cigarettes off...

Lesson learned last night - it probably isn't very becoming to drink half of a 700ml bottle of gin in an hour, and talk utter shit until you suddenly feel quite ill after eating a hedgehog. Then I forgot to take my Hemingway book when I left. Some chick said I looked like Selma Blair, and I disagreed most emphatically.

Out to watch funk bands...
