Hey Ruth! How's things? Uh, automatic question, kinda like saying "Hi, how are you?" instead of "hello" - no one really cares on the answer, the question's a greeting, a rhetorical statement rather than a question, but
I'm asking cause I care... honestly I do *looks innocent*
Glad things are going well for ya at school. Lighting director? Mad job. One of my old friends many years ago was studying Stage Production at Uni and she took me back stage once or twice to show me the equipment and the filters and effects and props and stuff, none of which I can really recall with much clarity now, but at the time I was blown away cause I honestly had never appreciated the amount of work that goes on behind the scenes of productions and performances - kinda like a concert I guess. I had been in a few stage productions at school myself but never worked much behind the scenes, so I was educated as it were. You guys BTS do amazing work - kudos to y'all!
Hope that goes swimmingly, but of course with you at the helm it will. Have full and utter faith in you. You're a smart cookie and you'll do great whatever you try your hand at! *nods knowingly* What's the production about anyway? Cats? Westside story? Rugrats go to Paris? *grins* Just curious, is all. Is it an original peice?? What's the theme?? Details, details...
Hope the formal goes well too. Oh and the assembly. Man, end of year 10. Brings back memories for this lil old duck, lemmie tell you... I would lie and say it feels like only yesterday but in truth it feels like a whole lifetime ago (that translated into actual years works out to be somewhere in the vacinity of 13, give or take *ahem*) but enjoy it while you can... Just be safe... Please play safe...
On another note been playing with my avatars again; created another doosie. I decided that I'm just gonna post a few of my avatars here cause 1) there pics of Rob, who else, and 2) each time I say
I changed my avatar, what do you think? chances are I've probably changed it since last post and the few that aren't on here as religiously as me might miss 'em (lucky souls, huh?). So, ladies and... well, mostly ladies here, innit? CoBers, here's a few of my not so craptacular Rob avatars;
(Squint and drool @ will XD)

I have a few more but couldn't be bothered uploading them from saved discs - these are only ones I have sitting on my comp right now, and in no way includes the 30+ cd's I've burnt over the years of LP pix, stories, interviews, audio, vids and other miscellaneous LP stuff along the way. My poor comp can't handle all the Gigs at once; hence the off system storage.

Anyhoo, avatars are ****-easy, and if y'still want something Phi lemmie know. I'll be changing mine as frequently as my underpants for the next few days (must be a planetary influence thing) til I find another pic I wanna stare at exclusively for a while.
This is Rob - the guy doesn't have a bad side. But having said that I don't see him when he first crawls out of bed of a morning (***, I wish!) or when he's sick with the flu or heaven forbid leaving rotten deposits on the back of the tour bus that goes against all laws of nature (and rules of tour bus/toilet ettiqute if I recall Frat Party correctly) but as far as I know in my somewhat limitted and narrowminded knowledge as a Bourdon-bopping groupie, is that the guy is as close to genetically perfect as the human race is likely to see for a while. Til he procreates. And if he never does he needs to be cloned. Said it before and I'll say it again - if you're looking to start the perfect race; start with Rob. Who would be his equal female counterpart?
Hmmm... I have 2 contenders; Angelina Jolie and Charlise Theron. Now that would make for the perfect offspring! OMFG I'm a genious. *s******s at self* Bet even Rob wold agree with my choice of life partner for him, huh? Even though it's Mike with the Angelina fetish, Chas loves Madonna, and Rob I think actually likes Beyonce, but ****, I stand by my convictions! And then, if neither of them are available, I'll stick my hand up. *laughs* ****, who wouldn't want to populate the planet with him as the Alpha Male??? Just give him a set of drums, a Playstation, a surfboard, tv set, a big comfy bed and his beloved black matix cap and the guy's in heaven anyway... Oh and water, can't go with out that... hehehe...
Anyhoo, I rant again and as usual for no apparent reason - I just love to babble on about Bobert. Sounds like a good name for a radio segment; Babbling about Bob/Rob/Bobert/Bourdie. OMG, I'm exhausting myself... need to go and rehydrate I think... yeah... *** bless y'all! Thanks for listening to/reading/allowing/politely ignoring my oft-long-winded posts. I appreciate it from the bottom of my black lil heart.
Take care guys. *Big Bourdie bear hugs and smoochies if you feel that way inclined* to y'all. TTYL,
-Rav
(aka; Bourdie's Mistress - one of the many, no doubt!)
