ant invasion...

man, do you know how difficult it is to get rid of ants without ant rid?? i can't afford such luxuries...

what a full on couple of days...

Friday I worked til 1 and then went home, ate dinner at 3 and went back into town to help set up the Aus Live Music Awards at the Garage and then door bitched the rest of the night away with the gorgeous Terri and Abby... (4CB Sat Mornings on 3d)

afterwards briefly trundled to Jive to catch Liam Gerners full set supporting Dave Graney and then on to the Cranker for the Satellites... and of course the regular Friday drop-in on the Rhino Room... *sigh* mmm. Rhino.... mmm, mmm, mmm.... be still... be still...

ETA in bed 2:30am...

Saturday went in to FUSE around 4pm to set up HQ with Terri and spunky Michelle and get organ-a-sized for the music showcase. I was posted at Caos with Abby and we had some awesome acts there.... August Falls, Pete Stone and the Assistance (WA), Problem Pony *neigh*, Jacsen Rae (VIC) & The Charlie Parkers (TAS)...

after I packed up, checked out the last couple tracks of SPOD... hehe. laugh-riot!! and went to fowlers to catch the last track or so of the beat smugglers who were going off like some kind of analogy you could insert here such as 'frog in a sock'...

ETA in my bed 3:30... but do you think I could sleep....?? no, i got my second wind! goddamnned caffeine!! I'm surprised I can stand up, let alone produce my show today...
