This weekend was quite a weekend for birthdays. Particularly since in our group, both Craig's and mine are on the 21st.

For Craig's we went out to Bridie O'Rielly's for a drink tonight. Definitely love working in the city. Getting off work, jumping on a tram, heading down to pick up Katie at Melbourne Uni, and then heading over to Royal Parade and jumping on another tram for a 5 minute trip down to the pub is great.

Going down to meet Katie was particularly nice, not only because I don't get toi go down to Melbourne Uni as much as I used to a few months ago, it was quite cool to get to see her study carrel and get more of a look around the graduate center, where she is working. I was certainly glad I went down to pick her up, check out the loft and chill out a bit and not feel too rushed - and despite we got to the pub late, we were quite early in the sense that we were the first people there.

After getting some drinks, and a big event - Katie finally discovering a drink to make her own, we grabbed some food, which was much appreciated that they were still serving food.

In addition to everything, Katie got too see her first band in Australia. Which, was kinda lack luster, a not so great cover band Play Doh, Initially we were holding out to see the band, but once they went on, one set was all we really needed to see. I definitely thought about how 10 years ago, seeing a cover band was really cool - these days, especially in light of all the shows I've seen in Tempe, it's hard to look past how trite it is. I couldn't help but think about what Violet Wild might be up to. [smile] Cool that Katie at least got to see somewhat of a band though.

At 29...

Time won't stand by forever if I know it's true
And I've learned not to say never, or else I'll seem the fool
At 29 you'd think I'd know better, living like a kid
It's definitely weird that the past year hasn't seem to have gone that fast - until I think of 29, and how it literally seems like yesterday I was quoting the song as I was turning 29. It is really weird thinking about it in that respect, and definitely makes me wonder if I lived up the whole 29 thing enough this year. I dunno, but I did give the track a spin this morning. It'd be interesting to consult Hitter and see how many times I've played it this year.

At least I've got a couple of hours left before the living the 29 thing is over.
Now Playing: 29 - Gin Blossoms
