so we had rehearsal last night and we reached new levels of productivity by choosing a track order for our cd and that’s it…

the rest of the night was spent doing useful things. eg Fi and I had a weak-off using jon’s new bench press (I believe he’s striving to create a body that will match the size of his hair). Anyway I’m generally pretty good in these challenge type situations (poker champion, top 5 foosballer, 8 ball semi finalist, 3 x nominated keyboardist of the year) the list goes on. I was sure I would win… but I lost miserably.

Also simon brought over his ipod full of classy tunes and put on la bamba. fi and I start singing along and discover we both know ALL the words, like every single one. how funny!! We haven’t got a clue what they mean but we both know em

va la la la la bamba, va la la la la bamba, se ne sessiko una porcha negrazia, una porcha negrazia famipazia yarriva yarriva, ah yarriva yarriva portissere, portissere portissere
yor na soy marinero, yor na soy marinero, soy gabita soy gabita soy gabita, va la bamba
va la bamba etc

also I’m not sure if anyone has noticed this but simon always states that everything he owns is just so much better than the thing you own, even when it’s exactly the same thing. for example last night simon looked over at my ipod which was happily sitting on my shelf minding it’s own business when simon announces his ipod is better than mine cos his isn’t wearing a ‘ridiculous hat’ …I didn’t think my ipod was wearing a hat and when I looked over at it I realised he was referring to my itrip.

so I learnt a couple of things last night
1 I’m surprisingly strong
2 fiona and I know all the words to a completely ridiculous song

..and I also confirmed something I already knew
simon is ‘special’

weird week.

told my boss I want to leave and she said ‘if you’re leaving im leaving too’, then went and got a computer and spent her whole weekend applying for 3 jobs. There I was worried she would think I wasn’t committed and give me the flick. Me I’ve applied for 1, dunno what I’m expecting not really expecting anything, though if I’m gunna apply for more, something tells me I should use up these 5 weeks holidays I’ve banked.

casino on Friday night was weird, every man and his knob was there, two cowboys going at it on my table, got caught in their cross fire way too often. Another cowboy, ex dealer at the crown talking the talk, goes heads up with me in a hand, as he calls my bet on the river, he tells me to turn over my queens. I showed him my queens and how they beat his ace high. fkn clown. another guy sitting next to me had an italian flag sewn in between the seems in his jeans. gotta love wogs.

mojo for the GF, nice bbq but spent the whole day looking after parro, she tells some surfy guy from melbourne who was too scared to go surfing with his 20 friends, that in the group he was only a 1 in 20 chance of being attacked and that they were good odds to call. She also offered free ‘accuracy’ tips to everyone stepping up to the foosball table. It wasn't condescending at all.

Saturday night, bumped into a number of people who communicated with me as though I had a terminal illness. that’s the way. The night wasn’t too bad tho, I used the digi camera to find my best photo pose, its been something ive been meaning to do since my old pose expired and all I can say is look out anyone who dares to get in front of the lens with me!

Anyway so last night I was watching tv and I hear this news story ‘another man bitten by shark’. I hope the surfy didn’t take her seriously.

Oh and in other news how good is rk?…go you good thing!!
