I am starting to worry about myself. Today I felt like crap and didn’t go to work and slept most of the day away. I also watched My Best Friend’s Wedding – which is a total chick flick – which I’ve seen before and really enjoyed it. And absolutely no fucking way would anyone pass Julia Roberts over for Cameron Diaz. It so did not make sense. Then again I may be in the minority because everyone around me – thanks Lu and Ben – that I have just quizzed on this topic disagrees with me. Hmmm. It’s like my weakness for high school romance/coming of age films. I think I am the only straight man over 20 who watched and enjoyed both Drive Me Crazy and Can’t Hardly Wait. Actually I stand corrected on the straight thing. Any man over 20. I mean there’s sensitive and then there is taking things a little bit too far.

Hmmm. Having just re-read this all I can is – cold and flu medication – it so should be more illegal than dope.

Listening to: Maren Ord, Michelle Branch, Catie Curtis.

Just home from dinner with friends. It was sort of strained a couple of times but otherwise good. Ended up at the Empire of Annandale which I always enjoy. No idea who was playing but they were fun. Not really keen on writing anything more tonight but maybe tomorrow.

Listening to: Nothing.

Was hammered last night and am now slightly paying for it. Not hungover as such but rather fairly tired and feel a little worn out. Nat and I had fun though. Can’t remember large chunks of the evening and have a fairly bad feeling about some of the chunks I can’t remember which suggest to me that I may have been a bit of a dickhead. Wouldn’t be the first time and I suspect not the last time either. Anyways going to dinner tonight and need to get ready.

Adios until later.

Listening to: Silence, occasional beep of someone signing into Messenger.

Another day going by. Got to give a presentation to about 400 people this afternoon which plays on my nerves a little – I am never very good in front of large groups of people – about ten is my limit. I have to make myself not say “um”, to stand still and not wander around the bloody place all the time and to keep calm and remember what to say. Thankfully I am talking to slides not off the cuff or from cards. Also thankfully I spent a few years at school debating (which yes makes me a geek but makes me a slightly more confident geek than some others) which hopefully I’ll remember how to not look like a dickhead.

Lu, her brother and her dad have gone up to the Hunter Valley for a couple of days so I am on my own. I was intending to go out tonight and hit the town but my drinking partner Brent ditched me at the last minute so it looks like a night at home instead. Ah well…

Listening: The Ataris, Paul Kelly and the arrival of many people into the office which has been empty of late.
