You've got a friend in me...

I went home for Mum's birthday which was on the Sunday so I got to entertain my Brother and go to the pictures with him, my niece and my cousin. They were pretty good and didn't talk throughout the movies.

Supa fly - 31/07

Mega huge glasses at the ol' Roxy Cinema Complex. They have the rechargeable ones which leave a hefty dint on your nose. 

We saw Toy Story 3. I really enjoyed it. Two of my crew had already seen it. A few laugh out loud moments and Ken would have to be my favourite character from this one. *big statement* perhaps from the whole series... *gasp.

Going the distance

Trivial Pursuit with my seven year old brother is always exciting. It is the adult DVD one so I have to prompt answers from him.

Very fast game - 30/07

Game did not go this fast. I packed it up when he was only on 3 pieces and we were an hour and half into it. He talks a pretty big game so it is amusing. He knows everything about Netball ????

Smarty pants

Got one of my new pair of glasses. The ones that I were not particularly keen on. There were not that many others that I actually likes that were different then my definite pair. I do like the colours.

Smartz - 29/07

The issues I have with these is the bottom gap from lenses to side bits. Minor really. But they sit there and I don't know if it will bug me. Guy said my eyes have stabilised... as if there were on a plummeting downward slope before. Should be using these (and the other ones) for a fair while at least.

Wellity wellity well

Slow day (rain). Think the power of the run has started to kick in. May need to back off... 40kgs is a little low.

Black tights and shoes - 28/07

Yeah, they can't all be winners. You have to have some losers to really appreciate the winners. At least it isn't another fuckin dinner post.

Bill Bailey!!!!

Finally got to see Bill Bailey! Oooohh had wanted to on his last tour but did not. Hilarious. Highlights include: Lyrical analysis of Akon's 'Smack That', the Ood bit where the crowd woke and found they could talk to him... and many other moments that would be quite unfunny if I tried to repeat.

Playing the bike horns - 27/07

There was no rehashing of previous material which was appreciated. He did ref other jokes like the one where he was asked on a previous trip to Aust if he had and dirt of berries on him. You MUST get his DVDs if you are unable to make it to any shows. MUST. That's an order.

Bridge and clouds and a few cars

One benefit of working Lower North Shore and living Inner West is being able to drive over the bridge most days. I bitch about the toll but I think it is kinda worth it for the (somewhat) view I get.

Cloudy bridge - 26/07

I don't actually look through my camera when taking these photos while driving. I pretty much wing it and take a few and have a look when I get home.

We can dance like Iggy Pop.

Aroma Festival is all things caffeine and chocolate. Would be one of my most fav festival if people who never go into the city stayed away. There are rules for walking about the city people. Chaos. Made worse by open topped hot items. Apart from that it was good.

There was a giant portrait of Marilyn made from coffee and milk.

Maz - 25/07

The festival is good it takes a bit to wander through the different 'quarters' and if there needs to be more tasters available. Restaurants in The Rocks are now also taking part and if I knew that I would have gotten lunch from Pony instead of my pasta dish.
