FRIDAY 20TH APRIL
Up around 2pm
Trammed into OccFri via Engels at 4pm
Arrived at 4:25pm - not many peeps - but Monster Tent Dave! immediately greeted awesomely by Sara, back from Sydney; Indi, Yikes showed up, Pyro & Thea, etc
Workshop about Scrase's mayoral campaign - excellent
Rescued from frustrating subsequent Gender Relations circle (commenced around sunset; Connie up to her usual nonsense) by Daniel; FACT discussion happening simultaneously
Walked to tram with him; he bounced off me re Scrase campaign
Talked to Sara, making banner at bottom of stairs
Myf came past, whilst I was sitting with Joel & hat guy (annoyed about gender circle) on podium, writing up notes. Brief catchup; she might come to Sarah's party in Brunswick
Scott arrived on scene, we vacated & went for a beer with Thea & Joel (+ Lane) at Swanston Walk; Yohan, Hat Guy & Nada chick hanging around; Thea taught me to do cup-spinny thing with string etc; OccuGoodness
Eventually joined by Myf at maybe 8:30pm; said goodbyes
Epic mish to tramstop (no 112s for 20 mins, went to get 86 but that was too long too); eventually Myf volunteered taxi to CH
Arrived at CH; I made bottle of goon & coke; dumped laptop; Myf dropped umbrella
We walked to IGA on Brunny for booze; I got sixpack; Myf got bottle of white wine
Proceeded up Brunswick St in search of another taxi; eventually got one, having walked beyond Piedemontes
We arrived at Sarah's around 10:30pm & were immediately struck by gathering of awesomeness: Billy Park! Bec & Lorna (obvs)! Carol & her boyf! Bourkie! Hot Dog! Cross Brothers! Danny & Sorcha! Luke Sims! Sean Walker! Adrian Trasjtman (chatted to him, he went on mish for food; walked him to front porch)! So on. Texted Adam, instructing him to come
Having surveyed the scene, went for a walk - ran into Carling arriving! Omg
Detirmined course of action: Wait for Ford & Kav, then occupy the treehouse
Ford turned up around midnight; Kav shortly after; rounded up key crew (Sims was in there) & took treehouse :)
Sense of incredible awe & magic around 4:30am
Called Nada in response to stressed-sounding FB status at around 8:30am, whilst sitting on front porch - seemed to work
Crashed out around 9:30am? on couch on front porch

SATURDAY 21ST APRIL
Woke up on couch around midday
Awesome trashed afternoon hangage in the treehouse with Bex, Angus, Bourkie, Sarah (awesome red fishnets), Pablo
Decided to cancel Fuguestate; texted in re this
Sarah told off quite harshly by neighbours around 7pm, asking us to get out of the treehouse by 10pm; (jetlagged guest etc); we vacated
Pizza ordered; handed over without having to be paid for, bizarrely & awesomely
Pictionary & pizza in tv room - absurdist awesomeness
I went on solo booze (whiskey + beer x 2), sausage roll & spanikopita mish to IGA around 8pm; frustrated by failure of house internets & mobile internets (slow, FB swallowing epic notetakeage that had to be redone etc); FBage w/ Warren re GA missed
On my return, private FBage w/ Sara re cat-feedage, reposted epic FB notes based on lost earlier draft (http://www.facebook.com/barnabye/posts/2670307256886); textage w/ Meg (now lost) (?)
Pictionary finished up; we decided to watch A Fish Called Wanda around 11:30pm, although no one was really following it; Angus started rolling joints w/ Bourkie's weed; Pablo crashed next door about halfway through; Bex snoring loudly
That finished up around 1am; debateage over what to watch next
Eventually put on You & Me & Everyone We Know around 2am, but DVD kept freezing & Sarah & Bourkie rapidly also crashed out
Angus did awesome psycho-magic tricks before crashing out
I crashed next to Angus around 4am

SUNDAY 22ND APRIL
Woken up around 2pm alone on foldout in TV room by Sarah's housemate, who left soon after
Hung around with SS, blearily tidying up a bit; mystery of Bex & Bourkey being gone, but their shoes still there
Great extended talkage in the garden w/ Sarah, re everything
Cup of tea at 4pm
Tossed up leaving, but S didn't seem to want me to
Went on mish to get baccy & soup ingredients just before dusk. Got soup ingredients in incredibly zoned out state, but fell short for ciggas
Wandered up and down Sydney trying to source cheap-enough baccy (cigarette machine in shitty pokies venue, but no joy)
Sarah set to work making soup; Lorna & friend turned up briefly
Started to get dark shortly after; Bex turned up with baccy & apple pie :)
Lovely soup in kitchen w/ Bex & Sarah; encounters w/ various Sarah housemates; followed after about 45 mins by pie; talked computer gaming, virtual worlds, Canberra, David Lynch etc
Eventually left with Bex around 8:30pm (me fading, conversationally dead); walked with her past Sydney to Lygon; we hugged on parting
Walked/trammed home
Arrived home at about 9:30pm to find Indi, Warren, Sara & Scott all still occupying CH! :)
Was regaled with stories of their adventures - happy scene
Sara & Scott watched Doctor Who on lappy in living room; Warren & Indi hanging in dining room getting stoned & doing computer stuff
I had shower & tidied up some
Warren took off around 10pm; gave me shitloads of weed; Scott went on solo mish to get baccy & toilet paper and stuff
Sara, Scott (on bed), me (stroking Nada at desk) & Indi (on lappy in corner) watched "I Heart Huckabees"
Sara crashed in front room around 2am
I went to bed but couldn't sleep; bleared with Scott & Indi, laptopping over OM website in dining room
Eventually made pasta for the three of us
Finally crashed out around 5am (?)
