Intrepid Journeys

This may become a bit of a travel blog soon.  I just looked at my mpass wanka iphone app for Air New Zealand Travellers and see I have a few flights booked. The husband and I are off to Melbourne next week for work but we can usually fit in plenty of play too. Boozy dinners at lots of cool restaurants are a must and in the past we have timed it with the Comedy fest or I have dragged him along to some amazing show like 'wicked' which he then proceeded to sleep through the whole first half?! Actually slept through it, as in head thrown back, mouth open, snorting and twitching! I tried to explain to the woman sitting next to him that he had Narcolepsy but I'm not sure she bought it. We will be leaving the teenager and her mate to house and petsit god help us She's done it before with no problems so I'm not too worried. I fill the freezer up with pies and easy microwave meals so she doesn't have to use the stove or any sharp implements. I just have to train the pooches to jump on her face to get her up in time for school each morning note to self 'Train Pooches' I figure we are pretty safe since my whole parenting style is a good combination of 40% fun and 60% 'putting the fear of god into them' Put it this way, I freaken love my house and all my stuff in it so if some little punk decides to disrespect my shit they better be able to run fast! I've always had the attitude that I completely trust her until I can't. Life can either be fun or it will SUX. Happy Days.
After the Aussie trip it's off to Kapiti for my Dads Birthday. I should find plenty of blog ammunition at that family weekend. As fun as those trips will be. I'm secretly fizzing about heading back to Wellington a month later for a girls weekend. Ill be spending it with my bridesmaids or my North Island Bitches as I affectionately referred to them in my wedding speech.  I apologise in advance to my liver but 'go hard or go home right?' or was it 'Eatings Cheating'? Pretty sure now that I have started this whole blogging caper the old saying 'What goes on tour stays on tour' is blown out the window!
