Jess is Rad

Hey there. I went to see Architecture in Helsinki in St. Kilda with Jess. It was great to see her and we had a fantastic time. AIH was awesome. Kellie Sutherland might just be the next Neko Case, (at least when she tours with the New Pornographers) in that she's the most talented person on the stage, but relegated to back up singer for half the set, so when she does sing her lead songs the crowd goes nuts from the anticipation.

Jess bought me heaps of beers and I had a bad headache the next day at work. First time for everything.

Work is double plus nuts and I missed league again which makes me sad. I fly home on Friday morning for Jen & Chip's wedding. Looking forward to business class champagne and watching 10 movies.

Courtney's Big Day

As you've no doubt sussed out, blogging is inversely proportionate to living. The more time I have to blog, the more time I am home blogging. I may have worked 74 hours in the first 6 days of this week, but I made up for it today.

1. I called home to wish Barb a quick Happy Mother's Day
2. I went to the Crown Casino to see the Spurs/Suns game at 10 AM
3. I went with Liz and Chris to the national gallery of Art to see the Classic Sneakers exhibit. (There is a huge stained glass window there, and Chris made sure he got the best perspective on it.
4. I went for nachos with Liz and Chris
5. I went with Liz to meet Hussey, Joy and Sarah (all of team box) for an afternoon tea
6. I went to watch the footy on TV in a pub (Fremantle won!)
7. I met up with Jess and Steven to see Architecture in Helsinki at the Prince of Wales. The show was great and the played a lot from the new album which seems to rock. (Can we all agree that Kellie Sutherland is by far the most talented member of this sextet (nee octet) and that more songs should showcase her? Yes, Especially if Cameron Bird insists on singing in that straining Grover falsetto.)

After that I came home to 301 and wrote this post and then (presumably) went to sleep. Attached are a few pictures. See if you can match the photo to the activities above. Good luck. (The Mac instance of blogger is crap so I can't paste them where I want. It'll be a surprise to me when I see the post. Thanks Mac.)
