I feel so ashamed

26 November – First ibuprofen assisted morning for quite some time but didn’t take too long to get reasonably mobile. Spent the afternoon out Balmain way with Louisa which was very pleasant – hair of the dog was far more suitable in righting my misaligned soul than the previously ingested chemical solution. Saw Return of the King for the first time in quite a while and was reminded of how incredibly long that movie actually is. Also, despite my longstanding and still firmly believed view that the show was is and always will be crap, saw the final epsiode of Australian Idol. Reasonably pleased with the result because the winner is actually a very good singer although I do think that if the result went the other way it would still work out just as well for him – he’s certainly good enough for a record company to snap him up and he’d have the advantage of not being stuck with Sony BMG (I wonder if a Crisis boy will be doing an early morning delivery from 1 Saunders to 11 Hargrave???) and he also wouldn’t be stuck with the crappy song that Idol gave him as his first single. You think about that.
