I'm going to Australia!

So, because I've got a cool job, I get to go to New Zealand and Australia in October. This is most likely going to happen but there is a small chance that it won't. But I'm supposed to be planning that it will.

I'm going to be flying into Auckland and spending a couple or three days there before going to Adelaide for at least two to four days and then flying to Sydney for the convention. So it will be about a 13 day trip. The only problem is that I won't be home for Xander's b-day (I'll be home a couple of days after that) and I'll be pretty homesick by being gone on that day. But we can celebrate it royally when I get home right?

This will be my first time going back to AU since I lived there oh so many years ago. I can't wait to see how its changed.

So what I need to know from my friends and family is....

What do you want me to bring back for you?

Kicks in the pants are free.

Updation

Unlike some, I don't always have wonderful things to talk about. However, I do today. Last night we had two rocks thrown through our front window. This was one - appreciated and two - good timing. Since we are trying to move, we have people who schedule appointments to see the house. We have one today and thanks to the punks that did this, we now have one less person who will interested in buying it. If you're trying to make us stay in the neighborhood, you're doing a good job.

And let me move on from there by saying my new favorite quote:

"Sweet, sweet wall. Don't listen to those other walls. They're just jealous."
