I'm currently addicted to a few songs and can't seem to stop listening to them... i've even resorted to purposely leaving my mp3 player at home so i'm forced to put on the radio and listen to some old tunes on mix fm.... I think i've listened to Connected by Means about 20 times a day for the last few weeks, NOFX - The separation of church and skate about 50 times and I think my iTunes has 1000 next to Rise Against - Injection in the play count. Ok maybe i'm a few hundred off but it feels like I havn't stopped listening to it.
Oh, I also had Rose Tattoo - Bound for Glory stuck in my head for about 3 weeks... seriously, try listening to it and not getting it stuck in your head, constantly singing the chorus over and over and over and over and over and over and over and (yeah u get it) to yourself, all day, every day, for .... eveeeerrrr! I'm not sure if it's even possible... big call, but that's the challenge.... go! "Because we're bound for glory, oh we're booooound for glory, a heart felt victory, it's the warriors destiny, bound for gloooorry". Umm, k sorry. Luckily i've got a much less boring song stuck in my noggin now... don't get me wring though, it's an Aussie classic and every Australia Day playlist should have it.
If you don't have any of those songs, I urge you to get them... even if it's not your style, they're stuck in my head for a good reason :)
Speaking of Australia Day.... had a freakin great day! I got home from Canada around 9am and went straight to the zoo to watch John Williamson... what a champ that's 3 years in a row i've seen him there.... amazing stuff!
I've got some pretty cool pics of Australia Day on my facebook and flickr, it's just random stuff that we ended up doing very early in the morning on the beach... again, good times.
Life is good.

2 down, 10 to go.
Hey ho, I think this is my first blog of the year (yes it's only because i've been too lazy) and it's already Febs, crazy stuff...
Well it was a good start to the year, New Years at my place was a bunch of good times with a bunch of good eggs laughing at and heckling the drunk people getting drenched by the rain... sucks to be them. Well I had fun anyway.
I was in Canadia for most of Jan, I pretty much just hung out with Alex and snowboarded the whole time. Loved Toronto, what a city... so much to do and had bugger all time for it. And the snow was next to amazing, takes me back to my days at Mammoth & June.... good times. Ah the pow and blue birds!
Anywho, I've returned from Canada a single man, flourishing in the light of bachelorhood. HAHA na not really, actually, it pretty much sucks and i'm scared shitless of it haha.
So the last few months, Lee, Chips, me and a couple others have been practising Freebording, (yes, that's spelt correct) it's a snowboard simulator for roads... basically it's a skateboard with wider trucks and middle wheels that swivel to give you a sideways slide effect. Anyway, so we were all struggling with it, then I got back from Canada and went for a ride... it took just a couple of runs before I fugured it out. Then explained to lee what we should be doing and he's pretty much nailed it too.... Shibby! Seems the snowboarding helped a crap load and now we're busting out a bit bigger and steeper! Check it out www.freebordaustralia.com
I'll get some pics and video up when we go out next (just have to wait for the rain to piss off)
Good times... if anyone is interested in hitting the road on a freebord with us, just hit me up and we'll get you hooked up!
Tell you the truth, the purpose of this blog was to 1: write something coz it's been so long and 2: INSPIRE JT to whip up some hilarious bloggy goodness for me to read.... K, your turn Jess :p
