Unexpected, Trivial, Juggly and Swears...

Mood: Happy and Joyful and Stuff
Listening to: Little Britain

Unexpected: My beautiful friend Almost arriving from Melbournia, taking me out to dinner with Nicky, and catching up. Also being invited to a concert by this AWESOME chicky (who I'd not heard of before) for this Thursday night!!

Hooray for invitations to concerts I say!

I actually haven't been to a concert since my Best Friend in the World dragged me along to see "Girlfriend" when we were... what?... 10? I remember Miss Tink being so very excited that we got seats right in front of the speakers. Myself, I was disturbed by the amount of towel and water bottle action that was going on. And by the volume. And the dancing.

Guess I was a pretty dull old 10 year old!

Still, I am excited at the prospect of being able to say that I have attended a proper adult concert. I'm so grown up and stuff!

Trivial: While we were at dinner on the first night, Almost, Nicky and I were accosted by a very charismatic gentleman asking if we were wishing to play a little trivia. And as we are trivial folks, we did. Considering there were only two of us, I think we did pretty well.

In fact, we enjoyed it so much that we decided to do it again the next night with whichever of our mates we could scare up. So it was a party of 5 originals and 2 ring ins that took hold of the Trivia Answer Sheet and proceeded to come... well... not last anyways. Close, but not last! I thought that my continued participation in the JtH Trivia Challenge would have stood me in good stead - but alas, 'twas to no end.

My favorite bit - heckling the guy doing the questions! (Which sounds bad, but he was a mate of one of our mates, and was giving as good as he got!)

Juggly: One of our beautiful friends, Jimmy, is the most amazingly talented guy. He uni-cycles, plays amazing guitar, drums, does body prucussion, and last night at the pub, was showing off his JUGGLING!!

Five balls, cascading, columns, very cool. He's taught the barman in the pub to juggle, which was cool. Periodically he would pop out from behind the bar, toss a few balls up "Do the Claw" and then disappear again.

Its always awesome to be around Jimmy, juggling or not.

And

Swears... I gave up swearing a fortnight ago, and I am pleased to report that I haven't let a bad word slip my lips in the last week. Hooray for cleaning up my pottymouth! It is a disgusting habit I think, for a lady to swear. And I am a lady. I do intend to start behaving and looking like one!

Next on the agenda: Fingernails. I'm going to stop biting them.

S... t... a... r...t... i... n...g... g... g... g...

Now!
