So.  Later this month Justiin Townes Earle comes to NZ.  I've been a longtime fan of his father's work and have seen him live a few times, and suspect I even say a very young Justin playing with him at the Auckland Town hall.  Now I'm enjoying Justin's work hugely.

So as you can imagine I'm quite keen to see him, however...
 
He's in Wellington the 25th - I leave for Auckland for a family wedding at lunchtime on the 25th.
He's in Auckland on the 26th - I'm at said wedding.
He's at Leigh Sawmill on the 27th - I leave Auckland at 17:00.
 
Chuck in two ASB Premiership semi's that look to be stuffed by wedding and flights and I'm a little aggrieved.

Get Dale to shag the bride (I know he prefers bridesmaids, but I'm sure he can live with it just this once) and make sure the groom finds out so there will be no wedding.
 
Problems solved.

College Basketball.

I watch it cause it's on but I'd much rather watch the NBA.

The bridesmaid thing may be a mental block... oh, and she's my sister-in-law who I've known since she was 6 and her impending husband is a body builder the size of a house.

I know players are expected to remain professional when representing a club, whether at professional or amateur level but how does this guy get sent off?

People who piss you about and make you wait longer than necessary, change their minds umpteen diffent times, only to decide on the first option discussed and have that option then rise up in cost by 25% since it was first tabled. Are you people going to give me the extra $400 to go towards my payment???

Probably because their national day doesn't encourage binge drinking. Just a guess.

and at the movies. A mate of mine got so annoyed during Die Hard 4 that he jumped across me and punched the guy next to me who kept talking. Funny thing was that my mate stayed for the rest of the movie but the people talking all got kicked out.

I was at the movies with my mum, and the guy behind her was eating a apple really loudly, it was a really crunchy one, and we were in a really emotional bit of the whale rider (which made her even more mad.) She had a angry conversation with him, full of swearing, and in the end he threw his apple somewhere.

My fascinating story for the day. Hope ya'll enjoyed it.

Finding out, a player you have a given a ride to training for the past 5 weeks has now ditched your team for another through FB.

...Facebook, eh? It's only good for getting laid.  (Allegedly)

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.
