Nice. Yesterday afternoon, Tony King (managing director of Apple Australia) came around the call centre and gave everyone a “Thank you”, and a double-pass to Hoyts La Premiere cinemas. From the little blurb that came with it:

“Ticket holders can relax in an exclusive lounge with complementary coffee, tea, soft drinks, and popcorn. Receive a complimentary cheese platter when you purchase a bottle of our specially selected wines from the Gallery bar. All of which can be enjoyed inside the cinema.
“With a five star balcony view and our private custom made sofa for two, you can experience the latest in-season releases from our CINEMAXX auditoriums.

Apparently these are about thirty dollars a ticket! And everyone got a double-pass, and there’d be probably 40-50 people in the call centre.

Only problem…I don’t really have anyone to take. : I’d want to take someone special, but I don’t have anyone special. ::sigh::

Still, the expiry date is the end of March next year, so I’ve got plenty of time to think about it. 🙂

Last night we geeked out and went over to my friend’s house to play Magic. 😉 And tonight, a friend’s 21st! (There /might/ be random drunk SMSs… it depends if there’s enough happening there that I don’t get a bit bored and pull out my phone. ;)) bimbogrrl, am I likely to get killed horribly if I message you? 😉

Aw shit. I was having so much fun I forgot about the Random Drunk SMSs, heh. ph33r my mad drunken table tennis skillz. 😀

Woo, friend’s 21st tonight. 🙂 Anyone whose mobile number I have, prepare for Random Drunk SMSs™! 😀

Woo. Snagged Fear Factory’s latest album, “Archetype”. 😀 It’s very good! (Usenet plus fucking plus.)

And no Bluetooth mouse for me today. It ought to arrive tomorrow morning, I think.

Yay. Ordered myself a Microsoft Bluetooth Intellimouse yesterday evening. 🙂 I’m hoping it’ll arrive this afternoon, but I suspect it won’t.

YARRRR! Last night was awesome. 🙂

Not long after me and my friend Chunky arrived, we were witness to over two hundred sparklers going off at once. 😉 It was awesome. causa and one of the other guys there both took a video of it.

After that there was much drinking and merriness. One of the guys climbed up the flagpole that’s out the back because he thought there was a case of beer at the top. (*cough*, I wonder who gave him that impression? ;)). Causa and Rob have put a pirate flag up there, which rules muchly.

__stripped and noogles arrived later on. I ended up having mad snuggles with Cath on one of the couches they’d dragged out to the backyard, as Sean had decided he’d prefer his prawn crackers (which apparently weren’t very nice at all) and Smiths chicken chips.

When everyone went to their rooms at about 3:30-4:00, me, Chunky, Sean, and Cath stayed up and talked absolute shit to each other until about 6. Sean, you hobbit you! What about second breakfast? What about elevenses?! 😀

After everyone woke up, we headed over to the Chatswood shopping centre and had deliciously greasy breakfast from ‘The Coffee Club’.

Oh yes, and I got a new LJ friend, dweialeitha, whose username I can’t even pronounce. 😉 All in all, it was an excellent night!

(Wow, I think that’s the longest LJ post I’ve ever made!)

Sweet…tickets for Opeth go on sale this Friday. 🙂 The Ticketek website doesn’t list prices, though, unfortunately.
