Seventh Journal Entry (04/07/02)
I'm watching telly in Australia. There are a few less channels than in the u.s. About 600 less to be exact. It's actually a nice change for me not to be able to mindlessly flick through the endless stream of home shopping, talk shows and reality t.v.
Anyway.
I'm home. I'm in Australia. And it feels so good. I got 3 days off before Easter in Sydney and had such a cool time. Thanks to Taronga Zoo for being so amazing. They totally spoiled me and my American friend and made me seem much more croc hunter than I actually am to my peers. Go Echidnas is all I have to say.
Shot the vid for Strange Relationship in Sydney. One take video. Possibly the coolest thing I've ever been in. Can't wait for you to see it.
Leonie threw me a surprise early 30th birthday party. My whole family and a bunch of friends did a wonderful job freaking me out and ending a week that was described by someone dear to me as 'Darrenpalooza'. After an album launch.. a week of promotion and a circus of attention surrounding me - my week concluded with an evening celebrating the fact that I was born. Surreal I guess if you're not used to it! I love my Leonie. Special big ups to Troy and Shane for the incredible hospitality.
That's it. I can't believe I said big up. That's so JLo.
Having a blast by the way playing live at the moment. And I do think that Jabba from Channel V needs his own late night t.v show. That man is too funny.
Thanks to everyone coming out to say hey at the cd signings and the Australian support. It's very much appreciated!
Talk later
xD
