This is me doing more frequent posting in hope that my entries don't end up being lengthier than an essay and too goddamn long to read. Limit: four points still! (I did so well last time I thought I might try it again!)
DYLAN MORAN IN AUGUST HELL YES.
gemmi_joo is awesome times a million and logged onto Ticketmaster at 9am on Monday to get them. SO EXCITED.
Does anyone watch Winners & Losers here? (PLEASE LET THERE BE SOMEONE BECAUSE I DON'T LIKE SQUEEING WITH MYSELF.) I absolutely adore that Sophie is a halfy. Yes, halfy. That's what I call us Eurasians. Because it's all like, "ooh, you're kind of Asian but... not quite?" and they can't quite work us out. Hence: halfy. ANYWAY. It's the first time I've ever seen a halfy character and that excites me so much because we're a minority and it's just awesome to see. ALSO: I ship Sophie/Doug and Frances/Zach. Can't help it, shoot me.
Bill Hunter is gravely ill in hospital. He is probably the most recognisable Australian actor ever; he's been in everything. Muriel's Wedding, Australia, Strictly Ballroom, Finding Nemo. It's kind of like when Bud Tingwell passed away; you don't think about them very often, but they've been in so many things that it's just strange to think they're not there anymore. (Not that Bill Hunter has died. But they're saying it's not far.)
Bless the Gold Coast and its small(ish) population. The evening traffic report on the radio says the same thing every day, due to there hardly ever being traffic accidents and train delays that bigger cities have. "It's heavy around Area X, slow south-bound on the M1", etc. Really, they should just say, "It's slow in the areas that are usually slow at peak hour, just like normal". That would save time, wouldn't it?
Going to the International Boat Show tomorrow! Basically, hundreds of super-luxurious, squillion-dollar yachts to explore. IT'S FUN. You can pretend to be a rich bitch sunbaking and drinking champagne and having the Old Spice guy serve you sushi on a silver platter. Cue: "Oh yeah, I've taken the boat many places. Miama, Tokyo, Denver. GRIZZ WAS IN THE NAVY." lolol I'm so delusional. And then on Sunday is some ladies' lunch on water thing that The Boy's mum invited me to go along to. Might be fun?
ANGRY BOYS STARTING NOW, must kick boy off watching AFL 360. Oh, oops, that was five points. Oh well.
Edit: SLAP MY ELBOW. LOLOL THAT WAS AWESOME, HOW DOES CHRIS LILLEY DO IT.
