Today I was hit on my 2 young men wearing filthy grey trackpants. They like my 'hipster look' (?) and appreciate my body. They're only human. THIS. IS. SYDNEY.
On Saturday I was attacked by the same magpie, again. Instead of taking his crap like I usually do, I headbutted the bastard twice. My helmet is pretty munted now. I talked to Erin's dad (who used to work for the council) to see if he could help me get it murdered. He laughed at me. THIS. IS. SYDNEY.
Today I checked my Superannuation account to see what interest I had accrued from my 6 months of living here. I have made $1.54. THIS. IS. SYDNEY.
On Wednesday I have my very first gig with my band. A friend who has never heard us play before used this to describe us; "LION LE LION - These guys are a brand new collaborative - this is their first gig as a band. With instruments featured as diverse as glockenspiel and accordion, as well as conventional sounds like guitars and voices, Lion Le Lion look to be a new musical revelation." Thaaaat's me. AND THIS IS SYDNEY.
Today I'm working on my blog, feeling bad that I haven't updated it and have been out of contact with so many people. Work has been busy with my boss on leave and staff being sick. Plus I'm just a wuss who gets tired from work and has early nights. Rock and roll.
On Sunday morning I went to the annual kite festival in Bondi. There were heaps of kites, including giant ones of whales and of aliens riding in spaceships. I'm not sure what the theme was, but if it was random crap, that kite would have won.
I went to roller derby a couple of weeks ago, which was AWESOME. I figured it would be a room full of lesbians cheering on more lesbians who beat each other up while on roller skates...and i was mostly right. Ha. It was so cool, there's actually full-on strategy and rules, they took it very seriously. The team I chose (the Beauty School Knockouts) beat the other team (Team Unicorn) so I was happy. Team Unicorn deserved some credit though, their opening number had a man dressed in a full unicorn suit, prancing around the stadium. I went with Lou and Mike and work people. I can't wait to go again!
The weather's been pretty good lately, I have the day off today which has been good, sadly I needed to do inside stuff but I saw a bit of sun. Can't wait to chill out tonight and do nothing!
I've probably done more but can't remember. Plus I can't think of anymoreTHIS IS SYDNEY quips, so instead, enjoy this delightful photo of a whale kite. Because you can.
