why wy?

I know I'm kinda late but just discovered this vid of painting with french fries and ketchup. The soundtrack rocks.
There are heaps of vids up of the new Bjork album and concerts, I'm not sure if I am into Bjork as much as before, I don't even listen to the old Bjork stuff anymore. I prefer Feist and Amy Winehouse.
Speaking of alcohol abuse, I had too much wine Friday night, woke up and the room was still spinning. A sign maybe I should take it easy? Nah, went ahead for aikido training anway, but made sure to tell my partners to take it slow initially until I was sure I could hold down lunch. You don't know till you try. Btw I was fine.
The Age today had a front page splash - 260 arrested a week for public drunkeness. Ironically, Victoria is the only state that enforces this law, dating back to British days. So you can be drunk in public in the rest of Australia without penalty. Woot!

I really enjoyed this vid of an american folk/country group jamming with a mongolian duo on the rooftops of beijing.

Stick to people, Annie Leibowitz. Her pic of germany's latest celeb comes off a tad scary.

On one-week term break, but it is a rip off really. The easter weekend is 4 days long, so effectively I get a holiday of 3 days. Bleech.

This weekend has been one of ups and downs, on Saturday I had a rough training session and was feeling all teary and distressed after. Many many many thanks to faye, who came over the next morning to give me an osteo treatment and I was bouncing off the walls with good vibes. In fact, I felt so good about myself that I ended up dancing at a gay bar with a couple of good chums past my bedtime. There you go, osteo treatment works!

Oh, and cuddles from these two fellas definitely helped too.

a duck feeding koi. another damn cute vid from cuteoverload.

Spent a whole day on bent knee and semi horse-stance for aikido training yesterday, then all night standing around at a beautiful engagement party in high heels. Today I have to work - standing at the footy. I am so going to pay for this tonight. These are times when people go, she's really smart and I go, if only you knew.

(I can hear my friends chorus - we know.)

Aikido is going well, but I still need to work on the idea of being calm and centred and empty before the attack. I see the row of black belts going to attack me during practice and in my head I go oh fuuuuck, which I'm told is the natural healthy response to danger.
