I was invited to join my beautiful girlfriend to see The Unprofessionals on Friday night at Enmore, it was hilarious! I laughed so much my abdominals got the best work out, especially when Merrick & Rosso played an installment of Bat Leb….
My favourite installment of Bat Leb

Do you remember that day we were Vegans?
Here’s the brief review
Saturday, I was up bright and early, unfortunately not early enough to catch the worm, I had intended to attend a boxing class at 7:30 ooops, I seldom sleep in, I guess my body needed it, I made myself a yummy brekkie watched an episode of Entourage, then headed to WBJ it’s like a vortex in there! I can’t just park go to my intended store and leave, too much time past and I found myself in JB Hi-Fi. I don’t know about anyone else but I can spend hours in there, DVD galore, CD’s I would love to add to my collection. I don’t download music, I should, Hmmm… No, I like having the cover.
I then spent most of the day in the office working on medial tasks that I just didn’t have enough time to attend to during the week and I’m sure many have noticed the recent decline of my spamming comments on your posts.
That afternoon I flopped on the lounge and watched one of the best bad movies I’ve ever seen. American Dreamz Deamz with a “Z” before getting all dressed up for the opera, Rigoletto, I took mum with me, it’s the last opera I’ll be seeing for the season, we decided, well, actually I decided we should go for a drink before hand. Opera Bar was full, not a seat in sight so with an hour and a half before the performance we sat in the Opera House lounge/bistro area and enjoyed a couple of vino’s while observing the outfits of all the opera goers.
The performance was sensational, I laughed, almost cried. For anyone who doesn’t know, Verdi is my ultimate favourite composer, you only need to listen to 30 seconds of this piece to feel the power of the music
Ordinarily I love being front row, centre. But without being able to see the sur-titles without some contortionist’s neck movement it was a little hard to follow, only having the ‘story of the opera’ for reference.
Sunday I had lunch with Dad, his partner and one of his work colleagues at Kaiser Stub'n an Austrian Restaurant in Terry Hills. The accents Kiwi, Cseky, Macedonian and Aussie (me) lots of heavy, rich food a few bottles of wine, 4 hours later…
After lunch I went to my mates house to.. get this… iron his shirts for the week, when did I turn into this woman? He broke his wrist skiing in Dubai (no matter how many times I hear that or say it, Skiing in Dubai is just wrong) somehow over our hours long conversation I agreed to go away with him for a weekend.

I wonder if I hadn’t consumed all that wine if I would’ve agreed? From crush to crash in the matter of a couple hours…

hmmm, is it those guys that do the Chopper impressions?
Chopper Weather Report
I love comedy acts, but when it comes to Aussie stuff, I get lost in the accent. Do Lebanese Aussies really talk like that?
Have you seen that ski place in Dubai? There's pics on the web somewhere... unbelieveable!!!!
BTW have been watching Operatunity?
Thanks Alex! :-)
Cibby, no it's another guy that does chopper, thanks for the link though its hilarious!
The Lebo/Aussie accents are a little exagerated, i mean a little. one of these days i'll take you and Rebecca to Brighton-Le-Sands for a coffee, you'll see all the sick lebo's driving in their sick ass cars doof doof doof and over hear some in a cafe, You would never expriance anything like it, nor want to again :-)
GB - I saw the ski place being built when i was there last year, WOW is all i can say. I have some great images of Dubai construction, love it!
I haven't watched Operatunity yet, i only found out about it a week ago - Ill add it to my to do list :-) thanks for the reminder!
'American Dreamz' and 'Rigoletto' in the one day???? They are at opposite ends of the 'Arts' scale - LOL
I just watched 'Stick It' and 'Chronicles of Riddick' so like I should talk ;)
Shutup....I'm home sick for the day with a Tooth and Ear ache :(
Poor Scorps.. Lots of panadine fort and a couple shots of vodka and you'll be right :-)
I'm surprised you picked 'American Dreamz' and 'Rigoletto' and not crude Merrick and Rosso comdey act and Rigoletto a day apart ;-) I love your ref to 'arts' hehehe
Ahhhh... we both have dichotomous natures.
Is this the second week you've had a long weekend?
I was about to say I was envious of your weekend until I read that you ironed a guy's shirts!!!
Not if you paid me, I wouldn't do it. I make sure I buy clothes that don't need ironing. So iron his stuff? Pigs will fly first! :P
yep, i ironed 4 shirts for him! I even offered to do the washing up! He didnt take me up on the offer... As i said who is this person i've become!??! It's something i wouldn't normally do, broken wrist got him a favour.
CB, the rest of my weekend was awesome!
I think the least he can do for you ironing his shirts is to take you away with him for the weekend.
Sounds like a fab weekend :-)
