Things making me happy today.

I just found out Malcolm Turnbull's middle name is Bligh. *glee*

Also I am wearing cricketk's Eeyore pj's which happen to be my favourite colour and are also very comfy and remind me of going to the Pixies concert with her the other night at the Belvoir Amphitheatre which was freakin' awesome!!!

First, she fed me fabulous vegetable curry soup, then she and juffles attempted with the power of their minds, and an online Perth Bike Map, to convince me to start riding my bike to work.

Me - It's too far.
Juffles - It's only 13 or 14kms.
Me - I DOUBT THAT TO INFINITY.
Cricket - ...straight.
Me - Uh huh, and how far is it in the real world?
Cricket and Juffles *enthusiastically check*
Juffles - Only 17kms, more or less. Easy!
Cricket - I cycle 17kms to work regularly.
Me *stares at them both, aghast*
Cricket - Well, obviously you work up to it. Start parking 8km away from work to start with, like I did.
Me *humours the crazy people*

Then Cricket and I got to the concert early enough to get great seats (technically, spots on the ground) and in time for the (according to Facebook) shite support band, who turned out to be not half bad, except they need a lead singer who can sing. I have no idea what they are called, except that they are from Newtown and their first song was called Newtown and they really need to drop that song.

Then the Pixies, who continue to be awesome. Couldn't find a decent youtube vid from that concert because either Perth people suck at filming, or there was some sort of sekrit sound distorting device. Also, it was really dark. I don't think they actually turned on the lights til the third song.

Random Pixies song for the curious">.

Oh, hey!

Not last minute or anything, but I can't make it to Swancon. If anyone knows someone who hasn't bought their ticket yet, and would rather have it half price, please send 'em my way.
