I had one of the oddest days.

I drove in to uni and bought a ticket for parking, which I promptly lost in the little gap I didn't know existed between the dash and the window. Went and got change, bought another ticket, went into the classroom 15 minutes late to see a note on the blackboard reminding students that there was no class today and I could make it up at one of two times in the afternoon, during which I work and NOBODY CAN COVER FOR ME.

Hmm.

Came home and watched some Buffy videos and realised too late I had a French thingie due in today. Went to work where it was TOO FUCKING COLD (did I mention it snowed yesterday? In CANBERRA? And today was even colder?) so Luke and I hung out inside. He didn't really want to, but it was too cold to be outside for long, especially for him. He'd keep getting all blue, then coming and crying at me like it was my fault.

I swore I wouldn't watch Australian Idol this year because I really hate Kyle, but then that extrra Wiggle came in and I melted and now I'm in love.

Lost tonight!! Exodus, Part 1. Really just about the sweetest ep. I wish Fury could've played Arzt, he would've been great! This was the cute boytouchy ep. I love it.

Sorry about the crappy day...it's so strange to know that it's snowing there, even if well, it's being a strangely cold August here...I'd normally be sweating and gasping for breath, and I'm actually wearing socks instead!

mmmmm, Drazic. I ADORED Heartbreak High. I actually kind of wish I could download it, burn it onto DVDs. there were some really ace characters, the first time I ever cried at anything on television was when Nick died and Jodie was at school and Southgate came and sort of said a speech about him.
Drazic was just gorgeous.

i hope this works; it's my first yousendit experience. The track is called "Occurrence at the Border (Hopping on a Gypsy Pogo Stick)", and is by the Gogol Bordello, the lead singer/songwriter of which is playing Alex in Everything is Illuminated.

Yay!

Movie that reminds me of you: The Goonies, duh.
Jelly flavour: Pineapple.
Something that only makes sense to us: Well, he looks tall in pictures, head and shoulders above his brother. Is he much taller than you?
My first memory of you: Erm. You telling me that when we met we argued about pairings but then we became friends. (I don't remember the actual argument, because I suck like that.)
Animal: A bird. Most people remind me of birds. Except fish people.
Something I've wondered: have you ever met anyone famous and had them really, really piss you off?

(ps. check out my sexy new icon. Dom, Naveen and iPods. Is there any greater joy?)

The ONLY celebrity born in the same town as me (Griffith, NSW) is Phillip Noyce, who directed Patriot Games and The Quiet American, among others. But I already knew that as my grandparents know his parents.

The imdb referred to Griffith as an "outback Australian town." It's a little to verdant to be considered outback, I think.

[green-queen.livejournal.com]

Phillip Noyce is cool.
