For some reason I am feeling a lot of love and excitement today. Despite being tired and having to be at work.

• I got a text from my mums partner (still not sure after 10 years if I should be referring to him as something else?!) this afternoon about our tickets to Iron Maiden. I’m going to the concert because of him, he’s a huge fan and has been for a very long time, he belongs to their fan club. :D The ticket company called him yesterday to let him know that by the request of the band we have been moved to seats closer to the band and will now be sitting up the front in the grandstand. He assumes that all fan club members got upgraded. So freaking sweet!!
• I’ve realised that most times you need to spend money to make money. And I feel a lot better for it. I’m getting better at putting the price of things into perspective too.
• I have a new part time role :D :D :D I am part time web coordinator, something I’ve always wanted to do. It’s at the same place I’ve been working for the past 2 years so I’m working 50/50 in my old role and new role for the next 6 months until we figure out if there is enough work for a full time role. There has never been anyone in the position so it’s all learning at the moment. It’s only my second day but it is so nice to have a break in the boredom.
  It helps that in the afternoons I now sit next to my best friend and her awesome boss who is describes himself as a “stereo-typical comp-sci geek”, both are totally smart and fellow bloggers.
• Rainbow suspenders. $2 yeyah.
• I get to spend this weekend with my friends in Hawkes Bay. It’s a long one because it’s Wellington Anniversary.
• My fringe is still awesome.
• I’ve been listening to the recently released Fall Out Boy CD non stop the last couple of days. Folie à Deux is a fantastic album, my favourite song by far is 27 and I really love the chorus of w.a.m.s
• My new iPod is so shiny. The 3rd gen I had finally gave up over new years and after much cajoling and resetting it refused to be coaxed into working properly. Now I have a shiny black 120GB colour iPod which holds videos and photos. A pretty huge jump from the 4 year old black and white one that had buttons above the wheel and held 15GB.
  Only gripe is that they (like all hard drives) are advertised as 120GB but are really only 111GB. Boo :[
• Hula hoop! I couldn’t be bothered searching any longer for a professional hoop in New Zealand so I just got a cheap one from The Warehouse. It seems big enough but I’ve got no idea how big adult ones are supposed to be. It really needs some extra weight on it though, I wrapped some duct tape around it but duct tape apparently doesn’t weigh very much.
• Big schemy scheming plans that are scheming to bring you some pretty pretties right out of my head. :D
