Last weeks and Victoria

Hmmm, Wow have the last couple of weeks have been crazy.. I have been working on this post for a while, but as time goes on i just develop more and more things to put into it, So here it is, finally.

I went to Bob’s party and almost finished off my bottle of absinthe with some help from some of my friends, so I'm almost rid of my evil alcohol. The party was so good the police decided to join us without being all official.

Last week I finished off at work... But not before making an ass of myself. The Australian CEO of the company I have been working at (3000 employees, $600 million a year turnover) was in Adelaide for a visit. Well, as I headed off early to go to uni, I jokingly announced out loud to my boss that I was leaving early to avoid the CEO before he arrives.... Yep, You guessed it, Shock horror on the bosses face, the CEO had already arrived and was in an office 5 meters behind me. Woops.

The next day I also decided to make another comment about the CEO as he was no longer in Adelaide, and yep, another shocked look on my bosses face, the company’s chief accountant (One of the CEO’s main offsiders) was in Adelaide and 10 meters away from me, but this time outside any office.

On My last day I decided it would be fun to walk up the 12 flights of stairs at work to my floor in the morning for a change instead of taking the elevator. As I got up to my floor I realised that I could only use my pass to get out of the stairwell on the other side of the building, Woops!!!

I remembered that I need to tell everyone never to be reincarnated as one of my pets... Why? Well I love monkeying around with them beyond what most people would. Things like taking photos of them just after they have woken up, excessive play fighting. But don’t be afraid, He is happy every night when I rock up from work, he likes me. When I went away on my little voyage (see later) he put on ove a KG, he is going to be huge! My mum also gave him a cheeseburger the other day, bad move. He was for a bit, afraid of dog food, and when I say afraid, I mean he was running away from it.

I had to give a major presentation for uni. When I rocked up to give it I discovered that the presentation was meant to be 30 minutes instead of the 20 minutes that I had prepared for, yep, woops! But since I was already a couple of minutes over, through talking slowly and adding some new stuff in on the fly, the presentation met the target.

After the presentation I went out and had a couple of drinks with my Uni friends, it was enjoyable, but ended quickly. So off to home I went Where one of my Highschool friends invited me out for drinks at night. The night time drinks were quite good, I enjoyed myself heaps, I got very drunk. I even managed to find a place that sort of reminded me of Timewarp (ohh, by the way, heaven might be back soon). When I was out I was felt the vibe that I use to get when I first went clubbing, So I really enjoyed myself.

I then found my way home and managed to blog, woops, I should never do that! Yet more regrets and things to think about when im trying to get to sleep at night. Sorry to thoes people who were affected.

In the morning I was invited down to my friend, Adrian’s place down at Mount Gambier. I headed off by myself trailing my other friends that I went out with the night before. I managed to keep myself entertained by taking photos of things, Like :

• My speedometer,
• The green countryside,
• Endless Vineyards, and
• A car tailgating a truck to save on fuel

I did see some cool large pink flowers that were on a one meter high stalks looking totally out of place in the middle of a dry paddock, I never stopped to take photos, I saw smaller clumps of them in person, but they were not as impressive, so I did not take a photo. I was on the look out for them on the way back home, but missed them :-/

When I got to Adrian’s place we put ourselves in motion to prepare his house to surprise him for his birthday (The idiot organised us to have the keys before he got there)

So we went out and bought some balloons, streamers and other kids party stuff. It was interesting when blowing up the balloons, they would stick to the wall, so without anything other than the balloons I managed to make a balloon wall.

After wrapping his present (in barbie paper just to tease him), makeing his name up in long ballons 1 & 2 (We first tried to make animals, but failed,so did the name insted with much trial and error) and sticking everything up, we shot him with party poppers as he entered his house, He was suitably impressed.



We also headed down to the local fire station as Adrian is a fire fighter and wanted to show my other friends, who also happen to be fire fighters, around the station. I got to sit in and climb upon their trucks :-P


We also headed out to see this huge, huge creator in the ground that happened to be a dormant volcano. It was impressive, and a big walk. We also saw some cool caves. BTW, some cool photos just there, worth a look!

On the drive back home I drove past soo many trucks, it was amazing :-O It was almost as they are moving the whole Adelaide interstate. After all of that, when I got home I was driving up my street when my cars resident spider who always pops his head up at the mots inappropriate of times, crawled down the windscreen, he survived the trip to Victoria and back!! Congratulations spider :-P

Anyhoo, enough of that bore, here are the rest of the photos. 1 & 2

Cheerio
