Remastered Version

Caitlin: This old version of "Oregon Girl" sounds so different. And it sounds like they are saying "Owegon Girl".
James: Yeah, it's odd. I was like 'Wow awesome alternate version!' Then I was like 'I want my old one back please.'
Caitlin: I can't get over "Owegon". They keep saying it. "Build a house up on an Owegon hill."
James: I can't stop laughing at it now. I can just imagine them being all like "Hmm, so we've got a great concept here, but I think it's just not going to cut it for the 'O.C.' crowd in its current form. Maybe change the Owegon to Oregon?" Then having a big argument about it because it was supposed to be an 'artistic choice' to have it that way.
Caitlin: That is EXACTLY what happened.

Add an extra house, city, and country if you count New Zealand. I think I’m ready to settle down for a while, y’know?

Salsa

Tonight I went salsa dancing at the Byron Bay Arts Factory! I thought it was going to be all backpackers because the Arts Factory has a hostel attached, but I don’t think there was anyone under 30 except me. Also, there was no beginner’s class, so I did ‘level 1’. It was challenging but in a good way? I’ve done salsa a bit before so it was fine. And the teachers were...
