Happy Hottest 100 Day…sorry Australia Day
I always seem to spend January 26 by myself.
During Uni because I was the worst student ever I was always doing courses over summer and since I’ve been working I seem to find myself not ever doing anything with friends.
This year I’m alone in a city I love but am not in love with. I usually visit and enjoy it in small bursts but have been here too long for my liking.
Even though it is totally Loner Boy 5000, I feel fan-bloody-tastic. I have access to copious amount of excellent coffee, the countdown for the world’s most voted in music awards is on the radio (which besides listening to the hotness tunes for the 11th year in a row I half think I get off on hearing everyone else’s fab parties sort of like why some people read the social pages), I have a stack of weekend newspapers to really get into and I am savoring the quite satisfaction that with a three day weekend that has no distractions I will clean up my inbox, write some articles and finish a couple of business plans all of which have been neglected over the last few weeks.
OMG!!!! The Fratellis’ Chelsea Dagger has just come in only at #59 on the countdown. I voted for that and Flathead. Hmmm….Triple J proves once again that democracy doesn’t work.
To all the big brown land inhabitants and expats: Have a Happy Australia Day, Invasion Day, unAustralian Day, Hottest 100 Day, Whatever Floats Your Boat Day. Enjoy!
