BDO 07

It's warm again. Ah. And we are back with a Labor government again too. Ah. Well, these days it's pretty much the same thing, Liberal/Labor, whatever. But perhaps there'll at least be some slight changes in areas where it counts. Worth it just to see Costello spit the dummy and storm out in disgust too, especially after Howard gave him so much support in his loser speech. That's what they call it; The Loser Speech. I didn't set out to watch election coverage, I was actually quite happy to watch Channel 10 for a change because they were the ONLY network not screening full coverage of the vote counting crap. I did flick over and have a peek during the ads for Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (Harrison Ford- yes please) and from what I could tell there was a whole bunch of people who thought they were pretty damned important gassing on about nothing on Channel nine, the ABC and SBS, while channel 7 went with the 'farce' option and had some useless gits who usually host a morning chat show (badly) gassing on. I don't know what's worse to watch; idiots who know nothing about politics or people who know quite a bit about politics but are still idiots.

I snoozed off straight after Star Wars and slept in until 11am this morning! That's crazy, I haven't slept that long for ages. Must have needed my rest. I rode up to mum's yesterday and did the voting thing. Visited my grandparents, ate some cake, and rode home again. It was a good day for a ride, not too hot and only a slight breeze. This afternoon MM and I are going for another ride, but this time down to the beach, hopefully it'll still be warm enough to swim by the time we get there. I haven't been to the beach yet this year so should be great! If only for the ice cream eating potential. Friday night i got extremely drunk at a 21st in North Adelaide and ended up calling BVR for a friendly chat. I can't exactly remember how pleased she was to hear from me, but all I have to say in my defence is that it wasn't really so late because I caught a lift home with people who weren't staying out late. Will stay away from champagne for a while I think... But the slight hangover did make me think of my bro who is at schoolies in Victor this weekend and if he's hungover too...

In other news, most exciting; I HAVE BIG DAY OUT TICKETS!!! Yar!! Yippeeeee. I thought they were sold out in Adelaide, as did most people I think. But Triple J gave a little hint one morning last week and on my lunch break I headed down to Big Star Records and there they were! Oh, there's gonna be some serious dancing happening that day!
