Hold on. Toast is confusing. I don't eat white bread. And toast is not like a radio at all. Non readers of this blog think Tune into Radio Carly is an actual radio show. I mean, why would they think that? So they don't read my blog, but ask where they can download the streaming of my radio show. Confusing. But the picture of toast asking for your votes is cute.

I digress.

You may want to consider nominating Tune into Radio Carly in one or more eligible categories. And if you do, thank you, thank you so much :)

2010 was an amazing year for me - I became a writer and TV presenter, received a media award, and this blog took off almost as fast as Angus and Julia's Big Jet Plane!

I'd be so happy to receive acknowledgment in these awards. It'd be a great start to 2011. My smile would be wider than in that picture of me!

I had fun nominating my favourite blogs - I hope whoever I voted for gets a winning place!

Have you cast your vote?

Tune into Radio Carly. It's a blog. Might be a radio show one day.

PS: News on the I'm gonna date Jake Gyllenhaal Project: according to Showbiz Spy (a close source, wit its telescopic lens), Jake Gyllenhaal Didn't Want Another High-Profile “Relationship”. If that's the case, he can settle down with a girl like me. Or Kirsti from Melbourne on my mind. She has loved Jake longer than my measly week and a bit. She probably deserves to wake up to this, the picture I've repeated several times in a fortnight.

Hell, if we find a large enough printer to print a life size, 6 foot, ripply muscled, cute smiling cut out of Mr G, we can ALL wake up to that.

Note how my blog post lived up to my blog's tagline: For all things completely irrelevant. Another reason to consider nominating me for a Bloggie ;)

New Years Eve in Melbourne

My New Years Eve was spent on the banks of the river in the city of Melbourne with a few close friends. It was lovely. The stinking hot day had cooled down so the temperature was pleasant. There were swarms of people in Crown Casino's foodcourt and on the promenade, but once we navigated those crowds, we had a spacious grassy spot with full view of the midnight fireworks. We toasted to good friends and a successful 2011.

I arrived home, by free and surprisingly reliable public transport, at 1.20 am. My neighbours were having a rocking karaoke party - singing to Blink 182, Pat Benetar and Roxette. I wanted to join them, despite not knowing their names, but my post mosquito phenergan had kicked in and I was soon asleep.

The beautiful Elvira.

My toes were painted and my tummy lined with a hearty carb-laden meal of pizza and butter chicken curry - for responsible drinking.

Me with the gorgeous Pauline from Just the Messenger.

Apparently I was a show-off in front of the camera? Who would have thought?

My first foray into drinking in a public place.

Group shot - Allana, me, Elvira, Riki and Pauline.

I discovered it is difficult capturing fireworks on camera, so here are some pictures from The Herald Sun:

Here is some TV coverage of Melbourne's fireworks.
