Still Not Australian

It was kinda weird not sitting around in the sun listening to the Hottest 100 on Australia Day yesterday.

Glad to see local-boys-done-good (while still remaining local) Eskimo Joe in the top 2, and actually kinda surprised by Augie March at #1 with One Crowded Hour. I've got the album and it's a great song, but I never would have picked it as popular enough to take out number one. Or maybe I missed something while I was out of the country?

How did everybody else spend Australia Day?

Don't worry, everyone was suprised(including the djs).
My theory is, it was helped by the name starting with 'A'. People probably start culling there shortlists more towards the end? And a lot of people probably didn't vote for Eskimo Joe and the like, because they thought it would get high up anyway.

Anyway, we lounged around the pool (it was 42 degrees!), listened to triple j, and at the last minute drove up into the hills and watched the fireworks and spectacular lightning from there!

Delivering pizzas in 41 degree weather in a car with no air conditioning!

All this over-40-degrees weather is sounding a bit crazy! I can't imagine delivering pizzas without air-con in that sort of weather (who even wants hot pizza in that weather, anyway?)
