Carly Segal moment: “Slam the whole cookie into your mouth!”
Make hot chocolate and then bite the ends off of a TimTam. Put one end in the hot chocolate and sip like the cookie is a straw and righhhhhhhhhhhht when it starts to feel squishy, Slam the whole cookie into your mouth. Pure. Chocolate. Amazingness!
Jake Brown moment: “Stay at the Beach Road Hotel”
We ended up finding Jake because she heard his laugh outside a bar as we were wondering by. Next thing you know I’m watching a youtube video of Jake falling 65 feet onto a hardwood skate ramp, hitting so hard his shoes pop off his feet.
“So he’s done skating then, right?” I said.
Janae laughs, “Ang he just won another gold medal!”
Alan Cumming: “I have left three tix for you at the studio box office for friday at 7pm. can’t wait to see you. in byron we are staying with a friend would love to hear your tips on friday come to the dressing room after and have a drinkie love from alan x”
Quoting Alan(in a southern lesbian accent): “If wishes were fishes we’d all take a swim”. I’m on the swim of a lifetime in the most beautiful waters in the world….thank you fairy godmother Alan!
Jack McBrayer moment: “Keep mental notes on your favorite things to do so you can tell McBrayer what to do whenever he finally travels there…”
Before I had time for to think about the ramifications for my actions I tied up my tennies, downed my iced skinny mocha with a scoop of ice cream (yeah that’s how they served it ha), and jumped into the…uh passenger seat. Details Angie details. I ran around the car, jumped in the driver’s seat and pulled out of the hotel and headed in the direction of the lighthouse.
Jessica Meisels Moment: “Try and hit byron for sure and stay at the byron at byron bay.”
Jessica continued: “The owners name is lyn and tell her u r a friend of mine. It is where all the celebs stay when they go-really private bungalows.”
MC Hammer: “Hammertime at Billboard. 9pm tonight.”
Ben Schwerin, my well-traveled friend, always seems to send me to people who end up staying in my life no matter what country they are in, so when Ben said I should meet his friend Max Markson from Sydney I knew I had to get to it. Lucky for me Max happened to be in Melbourne with MC Hammer at the same time I was there for my quick stint.
Joel Madden Moment
I kind of happened upon Joel’s moment yesterday which made it even more fun. That morning I searched for a game to attend and realized the football season for 09 was up. Went for my now routine run for the day and happened upon a trifecta of sport’s arenas and decided it was time to get creative for a moment. 😉
Jay Leno Moment: Go see Rove.
Since Jay Leno has never been to Sydney, my Jay Leno moment was to see the “Jay” of Australia-Rove. As a former intern for David Letterman and Conan O’Brian this moment was one that hit close to home. I love a cute comedy genius-and Rove was that and more. 🙂 Quick, witty, and personable. We laughed our way through his show.
JJ Banicki: Watch out for the Kangaroo Plague
Leave it to brother JJ to find out that today the news is warning Aussies about the kangaroo plague. Perhaps more Kangaroo moments than I bargained for…
