Currently - The September Edition

Wow. Ok. I am 8 days late on this one. Oops!

Current Book (s): I just finished the last Sookie Stackhouse novel and loved it. I think the last 2 books were a little fast and the plots were a little farfetched, even for vampires and werewolves. I am reading renovation magazines now, like a crazy woman!


Current Playlist: SO much good music this month. Here's some of my favourites:
  • Little Red - Rock It. This song is so fun. Australian bands are my thing at the mo.
  • Hungry Kids of Hungary - Scattered Diamonds. Another great Aussie band, these guys are super cool.
  • Klaxons - Echoes. 1st single of the Klaxons 2nd album. I saw these guys live in Japan, they are awesome live.
  • Paramore - All I Wanted. I still like a little emo music here and there. Paramore are my weakness for sure. Great for the gym or just listening to it REALLY loudly while driving alone. 
  • The Easybeats - Friday On My Mind. My Dad loves The Easybeats. This song is my favourite. I've been listening to some 60's music this week, good stuff there.
  • Noiseworks - Reach Out (Touch Somebody). This song is summer to me. Remember the old SLSC ads on TV and this was the song? Australian music in the 80's was brilliant.
  • Birds of Tokyo - Plans. This band are amazing, hailing from Perth and are so talented. A little raw and rough, just perfect.

Current Shame - Inducing Guilty Pleasure:
Zappo chews in Grape flavour. Reading too many blogs. Eating pasta, night after night.



Current Colour: White for renovation inspirations. Blue for the ocean.


Current Drink: Blue Powerade. Red Gatorade. Water. San Pelligrino with lemon.


Current Food: Pasta. Philly cheese on cruskits. Maltesers.


Current Favourite Show: An Idiot Abroad. Mad Men. Glee Season 2.



Current Wish list: I hope James goes his planned business trip to the USA next month. So he can do all my Xmas shopping and take advantage of the great exchange rate at the moment. Cha-ching!


Current Needs: An interior designer to help me renovate and furnish our new house. The kitchen and bathrooms to be installed before Xmas?! I can dream, can't I.



Current Triumphs: We bought a house. What a relief. And we cannot wait to start renovating. I can't wait for short drives to Woolies. And playing in the pool. And having more storage!


Current Bane(s) of my Existence: Clutter in the apartment is at its highest point at the moment. The spare bedroom is acting as a wardrobe / laundry room for now. Also my hair is growing out and I'm still undecided if I will keep it short. In the meantime, I look like Coach Beist from Glee.



Current Celebrity Crush: Ricky Gervais. No words needed. He makes me laugh. Hard.



Current Indulgence: Sleep-ins. Abi sleeps in most days till 9:30am. It's brilliant. I roll over and nearly fall out of bed when I realise what the time is.


Current #1 Blessing: A house. My great husband and daughter. Spring is here. Everything is looking up.


Current Slang or Saying: Does singing Justine Clarke songs count? Because I sing "Hop, Hippity, Hop" all day long.


Current Outfit: Peter Alexander nightie. With a dog on it. It's last seasons. I can't throw it out though. It's cute and comfy.


Current Excitement: Christmas is only 78 days away. It's my favourite time of the year. I love carols and decorations and trees and the general vibe of shopping in November/December. Also, it means I can watch this movie on Xmas Eve, a family tradition. Clark Griswold is genius.



Current Mood: Relief. Excitement. Nervous.
