Day Fifty of being Aflickionless...

Where to start for today's blog...oh I KNOW!!!

69 DAYS TO GO!!!
"69 days till Haydn gets back, 69 days till he returns, wake up one day and fuck around, 68 days till Haydn returns"

Now that is out of the way...on with the blog. FIRST for the masses ("masses" being eveybody but Haydn), time to get in the loop and find out about some more music that you may not know.
Today we would like to introduce you to GoldieRocks. That's Sam Hall; DJ, presenter and party planner du-jour. Now most renowned for her energised DJ appearances, invading parties and aftershows all over the land - at some point in time, Sam's probably hijacked your fave indie/electro haunt. But she's much more than London's latest party-person, skilled DJing aside, Goldierocks is also growing her reputation as a respected producer, remixer, presenter and music journalist…just some of the highlights are outlined below.
In my opinion, BLOODY FANTASTIC. Goldierocks truely does ROCK! You need to check them out and well thank the geeks for websites huh? Visit either the Myspace page or the official website to find out more and check out some the music.

JayJay is pissed off that her photos from National Anthems are STILL not up! Even though she re-downloaded them, .zip'ed them and re-uploaded them so that they could go up today. RAGE!!!

Maz started a new painting today, she also went out looking for that magazine at Glenfield mall but phailed, so brought herself a new beanie (YAY!) and a Wendy's Mega Choc Shake instead. She also picked up a pair of shoes for a comission. However she wasn't thinking of only herself while looking in shops...she picked up something for you too. Not quite a "hand sculpted nut sack" but it is a nut and was sculpted by somebody at some point (photo below).

She will try to find the magazine again tomorrow.
Besides shoping and painting Maz has also been working on a new JadedSphnix page, something a lot more simple, mainly because she can't be bothered with designing a new website. You can check it out here.
In other news on Sunday Maz is playing a HOOKER!!! And on Monday it's off to be almost nudie on Spartacus. FUN TIMES!

Nothing better to do on a Friday night? Stand around, kick a coke bottle and plot about the seeing if somebody will drink it. And then later on stand around and talk about nuts & jiggling them ("You better be careful Maz, If you shake the nut too hard you'll get peanut butter" - Dee, talking about the photographer nut)

Flights at Christchurch Airport have been disrupted after a communications cable was cut during development work. The incident, which happened at 8.35am, has affected check-in facilities and electronic flight information.

A transformer fire sent a shower of sparks into the air, cutting power to 77 North Shore homes overnight. Eyewitness Kevin Hind said the noise "sounded a bit like thunder". The incident looked like a fireworks display, said Mr Hind. "Sparks were flying as high as the power pole."
Three appliances manned by 12 firefighters arrived at the Killarney Ave, Torbay, scene after receiving a callout at 7.20pm yesterday.

Thousands of Air New Zealand passengers are this week getting their flight safety instructions from staff wearing nothing but body paint. The airline has decided to expand its use of body-painted staff from advertisements to the in-flight safety video used on 737 domestic flights.

Nelson and Marlborough were shaken by a pair of earthquakes this morning. The first was at 4.25am with a magnitude of 4.2. The second was at 5.16am and measured 4.6. Both were at a depth of 90km and centred around 40km south-west of Nelson.

If you're the kind of person who types tipsy and regrets it in the morning, Google's 'Mail Goggles', a new test-phase feature in the free Gmail service, might save you some angst. The feature requires you to solve a few easy maths problems in short order before hitting "send." If your logical thinking skills are intact, Google is betting you're sober enough to work out the repercussions of sending that screed you just drafted.

The extraordinary amount of news coverage the mainstream media has recently devoted to Twitter has led some to think the press is in love with the 3-year-old microblogging service. Twitter's constantly updating record of up-to-the-minute reaction has in some instances threatened to usurp media coverage of breaking news. It has also helped many celebrities, athletes and politicians bypass the media to get their message directly to their audience.

SIDESWIPPING IT
Leonie bought a bottle of Nature's Own Men's Multi for her husband. "The label says they are 'designed to meet the specific physiological needs of men'. Then 'if you are pregnant, or considering becoming pregnant, do not take vitamin supplements without consulting your doctor'."

AUCKLAND FORECAST TODAY

CURRENT WEIRDNESS
Maz has a sore wrist and doesn't know why...hmmm

DAILY FOF MOMENT
JayJay had an epic fail with the vantage order - but it wasn't her fault. Bruce (the boss) forgot to tell her that everything had to be ordered in 6 or more. JayJay did a normal order, lucky she asked him to check it before she sent it, so he picked it up. FAIL!
