Read the headlines today. Britney is on her first ever tour of Australia (and about bloody-well time, Britney, sheesh). She performed her first concert last night in Perth. Apparently most of the audience stormed out of the concert because it was so bad. This is not good. I'm going to see Britney in Melbourne in like 5 days or something. The complaints were her general performance, her lack of interaction with the audience, and the fact that the big screens showed mostly circus acts, rather than close ups of her. Now I have pretty darn good seats, but I'm starting to get the impression that this concert is going to be like watching a video clip being filmed, and that does not impress me. Not at all. *sigh*
I'm planning on going to the markets today. I'm going to buy some things as thank you gifts for the girls who are putting Libby and myself up when we're in America. Free accommodation is not the easiest thing to come buy, without extended family. Mostly I'm just excited to be seeing everyone again. (Haven't since the end of 2007 - so nearly a full 2 years). I am blowing out how quickly this year has gone passed to be honest, although I think last year felt like it was quicker. Still, here we are November - and this is the last year of the "noughties". I guess we'll then be on to the teens, even though 10, 11, and 12 really don't count. I've never understood why numbers work like that. I'm sure (or at least I hope) there is some kind of logical explanation for it.
God I'm so hanging out for this holiday. I need a good break from working behind the bar. I'll be looking forward to getting a scholarship and thus not having to work anywhere unless I actually WANT to. Moving states should be fun. Probably ridiculously expensive. And (I'm positive) very lonely. Its really hard to even gauge when Libby will be able to come over to live with me. I know she loves Tassie. She knows I hate it. We both like Ireland... Maybe that's in the cards. But yeah, we're having to wait on her marks, see if they're good enough for Honours. If not, I don't know what the back up plan is. If they are I don't know what the back up plan is. Who am I kidding? I don't even know what the original plan is! It is nice though, to have enough confidence in your relationship to know that if one of you goes somewhere for an indefinite period of time that it doesn't mean a 'deal-breaker'. Not sure whether I'm getting wiser, or just older, but its still good. Getting a house where we can have Suki is going to be the biggest pain though.
Well, I suppose I ought to "get up" (I am up, but I'm still in the dark in my pjs in front of the heater... I can't even tell if it's warm outside on account of these ridiculously high old ceilings and my reptile-like blood). I think a shower is in order, and if the weather is nice (please God), then a walk to the markets
