Glenn Kotche is Coming to Visit Me

I just sat in the kitchen for like 4 hours eating dinner and drinking wine. It was fabulous. I love having nothing to do. My internship starts a week from Thursday though, so things might become slightly less fabulous then. Or more. Who knows.

What have I been up to? I went on the private tour of Parliament and got to go to the Speaker of the House and the President of the Senate's offices (they weren't there). The whole building is effing gorgeous. I love it. We didn't get to go in the Prime Minister's office, but we did get to see him greet the P.M. of New Zealand because we were randomly walking behind his courtyard when she arrived in the motorcade. I wore my heels. It was painful.

We had an all-day seminar in Parliament on Friday. It was also painful, both because it was boring and long, and because the night before was Mardi Gras night in the B&G bar and three of us may have drank an entire bottle of 'Aldori' which is Aldi(a cheap supermarket)-brand Midori.

Other than that, nothing much is up. My sociology class is going to be a breeze and my Scottish lecturer keeps referencing Radiohead. I'm going to Melbourne during the mid-semester break. Oh, and two weeks from today I will be seeing fucking WILCO in fucking SYDNEY. Yes, my crazy 24-hour concert related trips continue even here. Thank God or else I don't know what I would do.

HELL YES.
