"Back in black, I hit the sack" ... what?!
Ok, with show numero uno well and truly done and dusted, welcome to the prep for show 2 of “Last Night Tonight”.
But first, a recap.
I hope you all enjoyed the first ep of complete nonsense and fly by the seat of your pants TV. On Tuesday morning I got the email from Judith Lucy’s people that she would not be making it to the LNT studios on account of a growing sickness that...
Boy it's gettin' hot, yes indeed it is.
Ahhhhh.. it’s now at that point that I’ve had SO much to do in prep for the first show, that now that I have everything taken care of, I can’t shake this feeling that I have something that needs to be done, that I’ve now gotten used to.
Does that even make sense?
I trust you know what I mean. You, the blog reading community.
Tonight I included a joke in my opening...
I like that everyone knows what I had for dinner. That was probably the whole...
40 hours...
… is long enough to be awake for.
So I’m finally retiring to dreamland, as I interview JUDITH LUCY for the first ep of LNT in about 13 hours.
Here’s an EXCLLLUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIVVVE clip of me during our shoot for “Last Night Tonight” opening montage.
Sick.
Showtime!
Alright ya’ll!!
In just three days, “LNT” premieres on QCTV (Ch. 31) at 8pm Thursday, and here’s what you can expect:
25 minutes of half-decent entertainment beamed directly to your living room.
Also, interviews with a very special guest (see below) and local electro juggernauts B.M.X!!
Plus I’ll be rabbiting on about some nonsense in between all that so probably...

Jigsaw Puzzle TONIGHT!
Right now, what will soon become the first episode of LNT is all but many pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, just waiting to be put together on Wednesday @ 6pm. My life right now is a day-to-day juggling act, managing all the pieces and making sure they land where they have to by then.
That pretty much sums up the whole process.
For example, the live sketch that will be part of the show is comprised...
Dretox.
Do you think if I just drank tea for 24 hours, that would result in a detox type affect?
I think so, but I’d probably be well ill by the end of it.
I had a manic day as usual today, and to chill out, decided to buy a cigar from the Story Bridge Hotel and walk along the river up until the bridge.
You know, when you think about it, Brisbane is actually a pretty city.

"Yup! In my white tea"
So in response to this heinous health I’ve found myself in, what with planning the launch and the show premiering in less than two weeks, I’ve decided to get back on the tea bandwagon. BUT! After being a tea fan for so long, the usual suspects like peppermint and roubous and english breakfast seem so passe to me now. That was before the good folks at Lipton stepped up their game and...

This is EXACTLY how I remember the night.
BOOM!
"Guess I'm doing swine"
Oh man. Who knew that no sleep, no exercise, working too much and eating too little would result in sickness??
Probably a doctor come to think of it.
Either way, it’s now two weeks until the premiere episode of LNT and I have a cold! I don;t really know if it’s a cold, but a runny nose and fever, so that usually adds up to a cold. But I feel comfortably warm, so maybe I should say...
Best do what he says, yeah? I mean, who are YOU to say no to that fro’?
"till I got flashed by the paparazzi..."
In 5 hours I have to be up and out to an extremely exciting photo shoot and interview where I can shamelessly pimp all the details of Thursday night and LNT in general. It’s raining and I hope that holds off, but more importantly I hope I wake up. I’ve been sleeping too much lately which, as strange as it is, is exactly what I DON’T need right now. I’ll sleep when...
"Allow me to re-introduce myself..."
