four-day bender

OK. 1st story is about the AFI awards last week. The southern ladies animation group (SLAG) film "It's like that" was nominated in the best short animation category. SO we dressed up and went along. (not quite all 13 of us) walked the red carpet, sat through the blah di blah, didn't win an award and went to the after party. with lots of famous people. kate and i were playing the "i just saw 'insert famous persons name here' game", but it got boring quickly, cause there were lots of them. many obscure tv people & Bill Hunter VINCE COLOSIMO! (rachael). now that its all over i hardly even remember who we saw but... thats not the point now is it..
I made my outfit, which was a funny little von trapp family short suit. A brown silk bolero jacket (lined with green striped silk) with matching hotpants, a pale green shot-silk strapless top and my casino boots.... yay! Cate Blanchett had the best dress, Naomi Watts was the most movie star glamourous, but I was the only person there wearing shorts, so there...
The party was at the NGV and then we went to cookie, where we danced til the wee hours then went to the Lounge.. yep the lounge.. I caught the tram home at 8 in the morning, had only 2 hrs sleep and it was the start of a 4 day bender with only 3 more hours sleep, count em: three. I blame it on good weather (lovely and hot) Emma Gallagher (the whiskey), the robroy's last hurrah, coke & then the melbourne cup... I picked the winner! YAY. Though I did have an early night for the next few nights after that... I was in no state to go to don's party... That's for sure, but probly in no state to do any of it. hah!
