dear diary,
i really love adam muller at the moment. he's 163cm tall

hi noah!

noah james

8 pound 11 ounces

get used to being called toby
xx

possibly the most awesome, actual age related idea x has ever had:

joining the three PS1's we have together, to make a PS3

people broke into my house and stole things

its not very nice

snuggled up with x, i run my fingers over his cheek

me: you're so soft
x: i stay out of the sun, and try my best not to get bitten or scratched by e

spew

its not nice. and its not nice when you collect almost 2 litres of it in front of your face. but i guess its better than it sitting inside you and making you feel even sicker.
one, two or three of us have been sick since last thursday. its not been the nicest of experiences. so far today, no one has vomited and i only had a brief headachey time this morning. perhaps we're on the mend? i hope so

played another gig since the last time i posted. friday night at the metro

i think we played ok. shame everyone went home tho. shame also that i spewed the rest of the night. my goodness the keepsakes are amazing. love love love them. i really hope to play with them again soon, and be better than we were.

adam comes home this week. yay :) he hasnt really been away all that long this time, so i think both of us have coped pretty well. i think when he goes next time is going to be harder. we've been looking at houses, and have found an awesome one if anyone would like to help. we need 4 or more bedrooms, close to port noarlunga, and i've come across this one. problem being that my friends currently rent it and they'd have to move out for us to live in it. dilemma. with two grown ups and a minimum of 4 kids, its gonna be tricky.

my ear still hurts. i am currently of the opinion that there is some sort of animal living in there. my other opinion is that it should get the fuck out, cos its hurting.

its been a while since my last proper post. im not sure if i've really been busy or not, or whether im maybe just living instead of surviving in my room.
i've hardly been on the computer at all, except to look at houses (anyone wanting to give away $400000, please see me) and occasionally check my email.

instead, what i've been doing is hanging out with adam, hanging out with the kids, rearranging my linen cupboard, keeping up with the dishes, eating fruit, playing gigs at the format festival in the fringe, going to band practice, riding bikes,searching for the golden aple, kicking arse on peggle, having a birthday and being completely spoilt in the presents department

humble bee have a proper website now that will be added to more and more

cheer advisory council are gonna be really busy playing heaps of shows




also, anyone who is good with family law, contacting me would be nice too. i have some questions

birthday wish list

melbourne



miffy and i went to melbourne a couple of weeks ago to see the swell season. it was hot and awesome

this is us on the shuttle bus from the airport to the hostel



i told you it was us, just in case you didnt recognise us. i know how much we look like celebrities incognito with our big hats and sunglasses

the first thing we did after dropping off our bags was go to the beach



as neither of us packed swimming costumes, this was as far as we got

we wandered around st kilda, where we were staying, and found the palais theatre, where the swell season would be playing the following night



and also luna park, which lives next door



people were lining up out the front cos it still wasnt open yet. they all stood with their fingers through the wire gates, gazing in.

we caught up with ben and maddy in a cafe called borsch, vodka and tears









the restaurant was lovely, and miffy and i ate yummy rice and camembert balls and dip which were divine. we also caught up with hannah, drank lots of coffee, and found a babushka shop





on the thursday, miffy and i went to the aquarium, which was expensive and not very big, but, it had penguins!

cute turtle



do you hear that princess? its the shrieking eels! i almost had to punch a little girl to get in there

cow fish

jelly fish

miffy, gazing at her lover, the sting ray












by far the most amazing part of our trip was the wednesday night, at the palais theatre

the seats

the ceiling

us waiting patiently and excitedly

the swell season

me meeting glen hansard, who loves my hair

me and miffy and glen

my favourite photo of miffy, possibly ever

me and miffy running down the street after meeting glen, giggling like the little girls we are



it was hot and we were sleepy and i think, quite ready to go home after three days on the east coast, but it was a lovely holiday, and we should do it again sometime. glen, you're invited too

ow

that thing is inside my uterus now and it fucking hurts. hurt going in, hurt that day, hurt the next day and the next. now my back hurts and my head hurts and i feel grumpy like i have the worst pmt ever. my tummy is bloated, my boobs hurt, im still bleeding and cramping and i just want to lay down and cry.

stupid plastic thing inside my uterus

i have ben looked after tho. adam got me a wheat bag and lovely painkillers, lots of cuddles and kisses, the boys offered me glasses of milk and keep coming in for cuddles. now they're playing lego nicely together and i think i need to lay down again.

someone called me and told me i dont blog anymore

so im blogging

but my tummy hurts, which i'll explain later, so im going back to bed to snuggle against someone warm

looking forward

so far this year has been pretty good all round. although i got some sad news yesterday, and there's some annoying ongoing things to deal with, it's been more good than bad.

humble bee played at the jade on saturday night, with radio spectacular and cheer advisory council



our cds are done too. you can listen to the album here. if you wanna buy one, let me know

death cab for cutie tickets go on sale on friday, and i shall be treating myself to one of those. feel free to join me.

on tuesday, miffy and i fly over to melbourne to see glen hansard and marketa irglova sing and play beautifully, and im sure i will cry.

laneway festival is coming up, and i won a ticket to that in a colouring in competition, which makes it even super awesomer.

frente are playing!

then its adams birthday, and he'll be home from work, so yay

then, its march already and it'll be my birthday. thats quite scary that i'm looking towards march when its still early january, but i think that may be a good thing. this time, im not looking at it, hoping it will be better, i'm looking and knowing it'll still be good
