Erin Go Bragh! and Cead Mille Failte! and all that!

It also happens to be my cats' 15th birthday, so Happy Birthday Pumpkin and Skitty, you little lovable PITAs.


Adam's album was supposed to be released this Tuesday, but it's been delayed because he is a giant cocktease got some new songs last minute that he wanted to to record. He has been performing the title track "Trespassing" occasionally on his radio promo tour, and recently did a really awesome version in London. It was co-written and produced by Pharrell. I don't know how someone can make me LOL, UNF, and AWWWWWW at the same time, but he's such a sexy, precious dork.



Keep your fingers crossed for me-- Adam's doing radio promo here on the 28th, so I'm doing my best to win tix to a couple of Meet&Greets.

Green Day is in the studio working on their 9th(!!!) studio album. They've been putting out little videos on their YT channel. They all look great! Billie Joe said in an interview that this was the first time they're making a record about fucking, which made me laugh out loud. Really, Billie? You can say that with a straight face?

Still doing my fitness bootcamp 4 times a week. It's been 5 months now, so the improvements are noticeable. Next step is to lose some weight, but my motivation for that is nowhere to be found. :-(

I remembered that I never did post about my trip to Europe! It was short and sweet. Most of it was spent in Dordrecht, NL with my friend, but we went to Antwerp one day, and Paris for a weekend by high-speed train. I had never been, so it was really cool. We did a lot of walking and caught all the big sights. A "proof" shot:



Classic Northern European weather, as you can tell, but of course, it means the crowds are small. Fine by me!

Some friends of [livejournal.com profile] sick_of_me03 (who is staying with me for a little while) are having a party tonight, so I'm off to run a bit on the TM, then get ready to go party in honor of my heritage.

Hope you're all wearing green!

Indonesia was just lovely, but it's great to be back home again! Great diving, great boat, great friends, but I'm worn out! Two and a half weeks is a long time to be away from home. My cats are only now beginning to forgive me. The other price I'm paying is that I'm working just about every night for the next 2 weeks, including tonight, so this is a quicky post. BLARGH.

My camera died right before the trip, but I borrowed the Dive Master's for a couple dives, so I'll post a few pics after I upload them, but here, have one:



Yes, I found Nemo.

In a bizarre fandom coincidence, on my way to Indo, I arrived at the Singapore airport at the EXACT SAME TIME as Adam Lambert...I from Tokyo, he from Australia. But did I see him? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

In other fandom news, both my loves are touring the US this summer: Green Day announced a tour this summer while I was gone, and Adam confirmed he'll be doing a headliner tour in the US this summer as well *prays to the gods he does a San Francisco date* C'mon Adam, we have lots of pretty gay boys here! *also prays that Green Day adds a Bay Area date, because I don't want to go to LA*



*prays to the Lotto gods that I win a million dollars to support my habit*

Missed you guys!


ETA: In even more fandom news, this is the 35th anniversary of the first concert I ever attended, my first and dearest fandom before I ever knew the word, the incomparable Led Zeppelin, at the Inglewood Forum, (Los Angeles) California.

Hola!

¡He vuelto! Fue un viaje muy fantástico y los buceos fueron extraordinarios. Pero, los extraño mucho, y estoy muy feliz estar en mi hogar.

(I'm back! It was a fantastic trip and the dives were amazing. But I missed you all a lot and I'm happy to be home.) I'll have a couple pics up in a few days. I'd forgotten how beautiful Cozumel is underwater.

I'll try to catch up with everyone's LJs, but if you think I missed something good, point me in the right direction.

A very happy belated birthday to [livejournal.com profile] indie_wonka and [livejournal.com profile] itsonlymec. Hope you both had great days.

Well, I'm leaving on my long-awaited vacation to indulge in my second biggest obsession: scuba diving. I'll be gone for 14 days. I fly to Costa Rica, starting my journey 3 AM tomorrow, spend a night in San Jose (CR, not CA!), spend two days at the Arenal Volcano, then board the 110' Okeanos Aggressor on 4 July for a 36 hour boat ride to Cocos Island, the largest uninhabited island in the world. I'll spend 7 days diving there, looking for hammerheads, mantas, turtles, and whale sharks with 21 friends from my other favorite internet community--about half of whom I've already met and dived with in real life. (People may talk about the evils of the internet, but my life has been unimaginably enriched by its existence.) Another 350 mile trip back to the mainland, one more night in San Jose, then home to two very pissed-off felines and an overwhelmingly long friends page on the 15th.

I may pop up in the next few days, since the hotel in San Jose is supposed to have wireless internet. On the boat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean? Nope.

It will be a blast, but I'll miss you guys something fierce! I expect you to take note of fics, pics and news I need to know!

Since I will miss it, Happy Birthday to my lovely [livejournal.com profile] luthien123 on the 4th! Have a wonderful day Liz honey!

And a very happy twelfth wedding anniversary to Billie Joe and Adrienne Nesser Armstrong on July 2nd.

April 2012
