I'm getting there...

i'm in sydney waiting to leave for san fran. took a flight from the sunshine coast this morning to sydney. db saw me off. it's nice here that you can actually wait w/ someone at the airport. so many things to find out when i get home: did i win the rice cooker?, what's up w/ the yankees?, did my beaky miss me and how is she on the drugs, will she behave when i leave her home alone for the first time on friday when i go to work?, what's the weather been like?, what are my girls up to? and my boys? and my tv shows, my blog, my apt., my job, my running, etc etc etc. please don't overwhelm me, i could be very fragile, though i feel very dangerous and powerful, haha! be careful!! i bite...HARD and enjoy every bite :0) i know you're all dying to have me back, aren't you?? until then, good day! (mate)

Goodbye Australia

Gotta go home tomorrow. Bullshit! I don't really want to go home, though I miss my Beaky Woo and my friends. In the last few days I've kinda turned into a beach bum. I've always hated the fucking beach w/ the tanning and wearing a suit but I decided to try and not care and deal w/ life in a bikini at the beach w/ a boy no less. I've survived! and could do it everyday now. I'll definitely miss the beach I've been going to the last few days. Also today I went to the Australia Zoo, the one the Irwins run. It was awesome! Very hands on. I hate going to the zoo and not being able to touch anything. Today I had my fill of kangaroos to feed. They were just lounging around and you could just approach them and pet them like lazy dogs. It was the best! I also got to touch a koala, I'd rather cuddle w/ it but I didn't go to the cuddle place, the koala sanctuary, so I just got to touch a couple on the butt. I also got to feed goats and elephants. I do have pictures as proof of this all. I just had a really good 'new to me' candy too. Licorice bullets, chocolate covered black licorice, kinda like good n plenty but w/ chocolate. If I would have discovered them sooner... Maybe I can pick some up tomorrow at the airport. I have a flight in the morning from the Sunshine Coast to Sydney, then Sydney to San Francisco, and San Fran to Boston. I land in Boston Wed. 10:30pm ready for work Thurs. morning, yuck! I'll have so much to catch up on at work it's gonna suck. I have lots more to share but i'll try to do that once I get back to Boston and need to relive the tales so I don't feel so shitty about being back in reality.

Thanks for stopping by!

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
