Gold Soundz!

my favourite band PAVEMENT are getting back together and touring in 2010, they’ll be over here in March!



Seeing this made me laugh out loud happy

I got a 20% pay rise

Well not quite, work had been driving me crazy these last few months so I arranged a meeting with the owners and told them what I thought, they were all ears but no solutions so I asked for a raise, if I’m going to be unhappy at work I need more pay.
We agreed to have another meeting the following week but in the meantime I had time to think more clearly and realized no pay rise would take the edge off being unhappy and I’m actually doing fine for cash too -I just put aside $6000 these last few months.
So I told them I’d changed my mind and asked to work 4 days instead of 5 for the same pay plus the job of running staff training once a month for extra pay while keeping my 2 months holiday a year
...and they said yes!
last week was my first 4 day week and it’s a holiday here on monday so I’ve got 4 days off -sweet, sweet leisure time how I love thee!



Vampire Weekend

I went to see Vampire Weekend last week and they were absolutely brilliant. The gig had been sold out for ages but the wonderful Sketchmonkey got me and a friend on the guest list, how great is that!!!



Girlfriend

I met her last week & she’s moving in with me this weekend. It’s nice to have someone to care about and good to know you still have the capacity to do so.

And she’s teaching me Japanese too!



I went to see Henry Rollins the other week

3hrs+ of his stories, insights & opinions -it was amazing!



Me and a friend were mooching around Prahran the other week

and in one of the op shops we went in there was a writing desk,
-battered, old but still beautiful. I’d been on the look-out for one since I got to Australia. When I looked closer there was a sign saying ‘free’ on it, they were ready to chuck it so we drove it to mine. I love it! I’ve just got to make sure I put it to good use now…



A book for spring

I’m rereading Ernest hemingway’s ‘A Moveable Feast’ at the moment. I pulled it off my shelf the other week to look over a passage I remembered and God it’s such a beautiful book, perfect for spring -I’m going to read it every spring until I get tired of it but I hope I never do.



BEOWULF!

Had a free lunch at a swanky hotel my mate was reviewing then went to see a reading of Beowolf at the Barbican which was absolutely amazing, came home very happy.



new laptop

a computer friend gave me his old laptop, now it’s my new laptop :D

(that’s my butler plugging it in)
