Weird weekend

After a big night on Thursday, I flew back to Perth on Friday morning. In the evening, I had Adam’s 21st. He managed a yard of beer and champagne in pretty good time.

Next day, the peace rally. The Sunday Times referred to a police estimate of at least 10 000 in attendance, which makes you wonder how today’s West Australian came up with a figure of 7000. Then there was Natale’s 21st, at the Port Beach Surf Club and then on to Metros.

Yesterday I woke up at lunch time, played Pictionary and then went to see You Am I play live and for free at an all-ages gig. Tim Rogers got stuck in to the little idiots who were crowd surfing, telling them they had just publicly declared, “I have a small penis.” He also cracked plenty of jokes about the age of the crowd, and told them they’d enjoy it more next year when someone they knew was playing.

This week I have meetings, meetings and more meetings. Then some time in the library, a student strike, and beer. Fun.

    Have you missed Cassandra? People don’t seem to be commenting on your “thoughts” much since she left?

    Hey, I went to a peace demo on Saturday too. Here in Brussels, there were also about 10,000 people (although CNN later numbered the crowd at “hundreds”).

    God, youth is wasted on the young. I’m wildly jealous.

    HAHA, you went to YAC IT UP?? Rumour has it that the only reason you go there is if you’re after 17 y.o. girls.

    Unfortunately I didn’t know it was on.

    I was there too Bailz, and definitely because I was after 17 yo girls.

    ;)
