So Darryl said, "Act cool Louise. You are in the very cool street press now. That means you have to be cool about it. They only interview cool people so be cool. Ok. Cool. Got it?.."
I got it. YEah right... The cool message coming from someone who dresses like this at Christmas - a mankini - cool?
And this... elves? (Note to Darryl - elves are cute - not cool)
And who can forget the great Pirate birthday Party ? (Note to Darryl: Johnny Depp is the only cool pirate.)
And what about dressing as a Jamaican Bobsledder? (You don't look cool just because the other person looks sillier. Sorry Hugo but you did look ridiculous)
So you can see why I am hesitant to listen to any form of style advice from a man who dresses as such. Yes, granted, I did buy most of these outfits. But funny is kinda cool. Wearing them - well that is a whole other statement about our marriage isn't it?!
So - Darryl - sorry, but I am not listening. I am really, really excited! This is SUPERCOOOOL and a little hilarious - and we know how much I love something random and hilarious.
Here is the big interview in Rave. Rave is a very cool street magazine. Hard copy and web edition. It lists all the Brisbane gigs and indie street music - plus other style info (that would be where my interview is located because I don't need to tell you about how bad my singing and air drumming is...) If you do go and have a peek at the download version of the mag - note the advert underneath my half page interview (yep - HALF PAGE!!!!) - about STIs - sexually transmitted infections (2 points to note here - back in my day they were called STDs - the 'd' being diseases - so a little infection has to be less dangerous than the dangers we faced back in the 80s!!.... AND secondly, I have to admit - I haven't written about sexually transmitted diseases since Grade 9 Heath classes - about 3000 years ago)
And regarding my rockstar references to my ticketed tickets just like Pink (who by the way - only got a teensy, weensy, tiny little paragraph in Rave...) I am definitely feeling some super rockstar cred at the moment.
You are so wrong Darryl - it is cool to be really, really excited! And it is ok to tell all your suburban school mum mates about it. I am just not cool enough to know people who have half a clue about Rave Magazine (and for that matter STIs)...






Great interview. That's very exciting!!

Hehehehe! Good to see hubbies getting into the dress ups!!! I am doing my monthly catch up with the 'goss'! You are doing tremendously well, as expected! I am grumpy though as I missed your extra story.... is it too big to post online?
Your stuff is rocking and you are an inspiration to boot! Also good karma is always coming your way, thank you for your Apron Skirt tute!
