Aussie Aussie Aussie...



So headed into the city with Mum and Russell to just hang out amongst the crowd... certainly better than being at home... The plan was to ditch them as soon as we got to the city... but surprisingly, enjoyed the company. We wandered around the city, took the City Circle tourist tram around for a bit, checked out the apartments in Docklands, then headed for Southbank where we sat outside a bar and had a few beers, checked out cute boys (even Mum and Russ spotted a few for me... hahaha) Then got a message from Woz - he was at a lunch at Crown and was finishing soon. So thats where I left Mum & Russ, and headed to Galactic Circus. A huge video arcade. At Crown Casino. Obviously where the adults dump the kids when they go into spend the grocery money on the pokies.

Played a few games of air hockey there with Woz and his friends, then headed back to their apartment, as they had "a few things to do"... Turns out I was getting roped into becoming a part of a manufacturing line, putting together 200 booklets for a wedding... mhmm... So theres 6 of us sitting around this dining table, 1st person was punching holes in the booklets, 2nd person was cutting lengths of ribbon, 3rd : threading the ribbon, 4th and 5th : tying the ribbons into little bows, and the 6th (me) cutting the ends of the ribbons into little 'V' shapes to make 'em look pretty and neat...

All in all, it actually was a lot of fun, and 3 hours flew by! Before I left them, Woz got a call from a buddy that he was going to Red Raw with - a spare freebie ticket! Do I want it? HELL YEAH! So raced home, 4 hours to get ready... weights, outfit decisions, shower, shave, trim, ahem... so much to do, so little time! So not me... I usually spend two weeks preparing for a dance party - this time I get 4 hours!

To be continued...
