Yep, I'm Alive

Hey, sorry if I might have fallen off the radar for a while! I've been working at a pub in Little Wanganui (pop probably something like 25...most of whom I know personally) for the last month. That's cool. Met some amazing people...etc. etc. (if anyone's expecting a good story...forget it. I'm looking foreward to having some good yarns when I get back and don't want to give anything away.). But yeah, that was cool, and there was no cell reception, inaccessable internet lots of food and free drinks (oh dear!). I got a haircut...which I won't go into farther than saying it involved a man with no legs, about $110 and lots of drinking. Some other stuff happened, like we had a hangi, which was sweet. More later. Anyhow, after all that, I hit the road again with a couple of Brummies that shared the West Coast comforts of the Hotel with my good self. So we're cruising around...dow the west coast, now in Queenstown. It's nice here. Cold, but nice. AND: 2 dollar drinks. I don't mean to promote how much I drink as I try to be very responsible and usually succeed, but I'm on the kind of budget that would usually limit the intake of a refreshing, after-"work"(i.e. not work) beverage...so I feel like this is something that I need tot ake advantage of.

So that's just about it (in as much as it's nothing). Oh, we went spear-fishing in the freezing cold at 3AM a couple of times too. And killed some pigs. That was all good fun.
Anyway, I gotta cruise off and do something productive like watch Liam cook and abuse the germans (I haven't met anyone in the hostel yet, but I assume there are Germans and that they are in need of some good abuse). So...until I'm back in the states, assume that I'm still living.

Driving Fast and Taking Lots of Chances,
