I Never Thought I Would Say This… April 15, 2008

But I think I miss Ken. Ugh. There, I said it. To tell the truth, my life has been one big slice of boring pie since that little sailor got on his jet plane and left. So yeah. No posts because there has been nothing to post about dammit. The head of the American EPA came in with eight body guards one night – everyone laughed because I didn’t know his name right off the bat – but I ask you – WITHOUT Googl*ng – do you know his name? Yeah. Didn’t think so.  Actually I have already forgotten his name, which is something I shouldn’t be admitting, but hey.

I can say I have a slight idea of how celebrities feel because I don’t think I have ever had my picture taken so much in my life since moving on good ol’ WD. It seems as if everytime I get off the boat and load myself clumsily into the dinghy I’ve got some tourist (Asian natch) taking my picture and oohing and ahhing about “Boat People”. It happens all the time. OR people stop and point at me as I start the dinghy and begin motoring to shore. One would think I had a unicorn in the dinghy. The ultimate best is probably the number of wedding pictures I have inadvertantly gotten myself in – it seems like everyone who gets married in Brisbane comes down to the waterfront at the gardens to get their pictures done and its always at the same time I want to come in or go back to the boat. Sorry to all you happy couples because usually its in the mid day and I’m just coming in to shore wearing grubby shorts and a dirty white tee so I can go to the bathroom. Or like this morning when I am yelling at Dan to go faster because I could possibly pee my pants and he’s taking his sweet time. That kid will be late for his own funeral, I tell you. Weel, that was morbid.

Alright. I’ve got nothing. I’ll try to do something stupid at work tonight. Maybe I’ll start a discussion with the kitchen regarding their new menu item “Traditional Louisiana Gumbo” which is neither traditional or from Louisiana.

LOVE
