Ooh.

The Leningrad Cowboys are playing at an AC/DC covers concert in Finland ... to benefit mental health research, or something.

Wait, I wasn't reading ninemsn.com ... I was just looking at the pictures ... honest

Went and got some Religion(TM) tonight at the Midnight Mass at Christ Church Brunswick. I declined the choirmaster's invitation to sing with the choir, not having rehearsed any of the pieces with them, and being the shrinking violet that I am. I sat amongst the ( Read more... )

Found this on the kitchen table the other day.
It is two minutes to midnight at K-Mart. Near closing time. "Come to me now, oh spirits of toys. Speak to me." mutters Tim ( Read more... )

So it rained on and off for most of the day today ... we've arrived in Woodend, where I'm hopefully catching up with sister Fiona and her b/f Grub in a couple of hours for a pot or two.

Is it wrong to think 'what a cool name for a band' after reading the headline "Cocaine gunfight kills 80 in Colombia"?

Well, I got there at five to eight, this combined with the fact that I attended that interview yesterday represents something of a personal achievement, such as it is. Ate their food, drank their coffee, and kept silent, as did most of the other candidates, when the fab offer of call centre work for Telstra in Burwood popped up. Most of the people ( Read more... )

I am bland, mediocre, and about to start temping in the morning. I had an interview today (which went okay, for what it's worth) and it seems like they won't really have anything concrete for me in the morning, but please can I get there at about 8 - 8.30 am and sit around looking hopeful like some kind of pet store puppy ... I should have really ( Read more... )
