Last night wins two awards:

MOST UNCOMFORTABLE MOMENT OF MY LIFE

and

WORST PICK UP OF MY LIFE

*****

So let me start with the first one. I ran into MK. This is the teacher i was involved with at school (class, i know!) He's not even meant to be in the country anymore. He's meant to be in london with his wife (even classier!). He was in melbs for 5 days and i manage to randomly run into him, and discover that i single handedly ruined his marriage. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I feel awful. THat and it was hideously uncomfortable. We ummed and errred and looked away and laughed like morons, leading Ian to ask the question "what the fuck was that?". Then he made some inappropriate comment about teaching not being all bad, which sent us into a resounding silence. Fuck it was bad.

Ok, and then i met up with Potts and some friends of his. After having a good dance, i was having a great time and decided it was about time i picked up. I found myself a particularly good looking guy who was really sweet and soon enough we started pashing. And then - HE BIT ME. And not only did he bite me once, but repeatedly and so hard that it bought tears to my eyes. I couldn't take it so i politely asked him to stop. He apologised - AND THEN DID IT AGAIN. So i excused myself and tried to hide from him in the bar. I woke up this morning and my lip is very very swolen and very blue. I was even bleeding. Its awful, i look like i've been punched in the face. I feel mauled. Who does this?

So yeah, my exciting night. Meanwhile, Tim has found a warehouse and i now have a key to 417. I am so happy.

Hey jess. Good to hear from you boy. I'm amused about your housemate, i KNEW it was going to happen. All i can say is dont go there. Really, its a bad bad idea. Still, i know you'll ignore me and end up shagging her if you haven't already.

As for matt, he does not count as my 'boyfriend' and i am thus allowed to pick up whoever i want. Not that i think i want to anymore after the whole biting incident. But yeah, despite the fact that he is seriously the sexiest human being alive, i cant be exclusive until i'm at least getting some lovin on a regular basis. And you know where i'm at, its just not...that same...you know, and i guess it never will be.

Say hi to mia for me. Can you get your hands on a photo of this new hair for me? I'm sure it looks stunning knowing her.

Hope you're surviving work, chat soon. Love ya. xxxxxxxxx

Finally met Bec tonight. (Bec is a friend of a friend who i've spoken to on the phone, have heard a lot about and have been meaning to meet for a very long time).

Verdict: ABSOLUTE FUCKIN HEADCASE. I dont dislike many people, but i will be very happy and at peace if i never EVER see her again, not even by accident. Never in my life have i met such a self absorbed, slutty, mentally fucked, drugged pseudo goth/punk/yuppie/whatever the fuck she wants to be on the day. She was rude, insensitive and left the conversation many times to return to the bathroom where she was no doubt stocking up on crack. Then i was good enough to drive her home, and on the way she was preaching her right-wing liberal crap at me in the most hoity toity, arrogant way which was just about the last straw and i told her just that. Well, it was implied in the sentance "just get out of my car". That wasn't too ambiguous was it? GRRRRRRRRRRRR

Oh man. Feeling drained from just being in her presence.

Gig went well though.

I'm going to bed. My precious precious bed.

It was always going to happen.


By 'it', i mean shagging the security guy from the pub. Wasn't the worst idea i've ever had...wasn't the best either. Matt probably wouldn't be too thrilled. God, i'm turning into...well the kind of person i hate seeing. Its not my fault, nyphomania is a curse and fuckin matt decided he wants to spend some time in New York.

I'm currently getting MacShayne out of the worst lunch date of his life. Apparently its horrific, so i called him pretending to be a friend in distress. An oldy but a goody.

Damn i need a night in. Haven't had one of those for 3 weeks now and my body is slowly starting to shut down. I go to sleep at 5 and get up at 10. But tonight is not the night for it cos i got a gig! I'm actually really excited...

BDO completely rocked my world.


Dallas Crane
- Wonderfully deafening, pretty tight and impressive for a local band. Front row, getting lots of smiles from Pat. Was still half asleep when i got there but they woke me up.

Darkness - Man i love these guys. Not much to say except they're unbelievable and really really entertaining.

Datsuns - Amazing. Not much else to say

Dandys - YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH. Ok, so the crowd was pathetically reserved. Is this a 'cool' thing? Hate to say it about a band i love so much, but i think on the day it was lucky for them that they sport one of the sexiest men in rock. I wasn't impressed by their set list, have not idea who chose it or why. Why would they do that? The two most popular songs first, followed by lots of unknown ones, and maybe a few half known. Of course, this is not significant to those who have and overplay the album, but still, it ruined the feel.

Muse - Oh baby. They were fucking sensational, couldn't fault it if i tried. Had a great spot, and had a rock out with Chris who i ran into during the show. Wooo...going to really get into this band.

Kings of Leon - Probably my favourite act of the day. This is simply cos i was standing right in the front row and absolutely love this band. They're wonderfully 60s. Snai was cringing the whole way through claiming it sounded like they were using a vox amp with the treble turned down. Probably were! Hehe, well i then fainted i was so fucking hot and sweaty, but it was great all the same.

Strokes
- What can i say? You can point out how seriously they rip off the stones and iggy pop (thats what i think anyway), but they are truely one of the most awesome bands in the world. And they were so damn rock. Standing in front of 40,000 screaming people and not one of them even remotely smiled, guess that smiling just aint cool these days.

Metallica - Metallica is metallica. Glad i saw them just to say i saw them, apart from that - Meh. Highly unmoved.

Basement Jaxx - hehe. Yay. Was going a bit crazzzzzzzzy at the time.

Great moments of the day:

- When the big group of guys next to us in the crowd pulled a bong from their bag (yeah i know, what the fuck!?) and a huge bowl of mix and start packing cones for everyone around. THe best damn pot i've ever smoked, and so much cred for the guts and extreme lack of class. Cheers to that.

- Running into Bowen and Chris at pretty much the same time, screaming and running away as fast as possible.

- Finding Cam and Zoe there unexpectedly, with passes to the bands bar. Rockin.

- Removing my top to cheers around me, and walking under that shower thing in a white bra. Fuck it. I was about to melt.

- Flirting shamelessly with a security guard to skip the line and get straight to the front of Muse.

- When the arm-band guy looked at my I.D and said "Oh wow, we're exactly the same age!" and i replied "yeah, except you're about 7 years older than me". He looked at least 27. Great line dude, try again.

So many more. Gotta go out, but will write more soon.

I MISS YOU JESS, WISH YOU COULD HAVE BEEN THERE WITH ME!!!!!!!!
