living life

since last we spoke there's been dancing, trivia, writing, a night at the malthouse theatre watching woyzeck. um... interesting. challenging at times. good music as it was scored by nick cave. and yes, that is tim rogers in the picture you see before you.


stayed in friday night. i know, uh-mazing. saturday was avoiding the heat again. and i watched i've loved you so long, a french film with kristen scott thomas, worth a viewing. good chili chocolate icecream at the nova for dinner.

sunday after writing i trammed down to st kilda for the festival but gave that up as a bad joke, really wasn't in the mood and they didn't have cinnamon doughnuts. :) watched an ozploitation film, the chain reaction, don't you love the catch phrase? it came out in 1980 and there's even a cameo appearance of mel gibson.


primal scream at the billboard that night. fabulous. and loud. and funny. we were standing in front of two guys who had earlier stalked the band, had been comped into the gig and were completely enraptured by the entire experience. it was a joy just watching them. so being entertained by the band was a bonus. ha! i did say it was loud didn't i? wow! i really couldn't hear properly til late on monday afternoon.


monday was alex's (or AF's) birthday, so a few friends gathered at degraves espresso for tapas and drinks. a whole lot of laughter, good food and chat. a great night.

last night found me in richmond, talking scripts, tv and film with dave - and trying to get through the world's largest slice of lemon merengue pie. i failed.
