I LOVE NELSON MORE

Today David, Tom and I road-tripped it to Nelson, home of something. It was an amazing adventure, filled with laughter and fueled by sugar. Lollies everywhere.
First, the drive over was riddled with Tenacious D*, which rocks out. Then we made it into town - early - and walked a while, getting McD’s breakfast hungerbusters along the way. It was about then that we were stopped by one of the many police cars I had spotted doing the laps that morning. The officer at first mistook us for 3 youths they were looking for, one just happened to be wearing a hoodie and beanie...much like me. I promptly changed. The officer seemed pretty sure it wasn't us, as we were “Just in town from Blenheim” and were so nice. However, I still think it was us, for my dangerous driving maneuver** involving a roundabout and some bad directions.
After this, and a short jaunt to the inner city Toyworld! we went to Richmond, and the wonderful mall. There we met up with one of Davids old friends Lucy, who he rants about often. Turns out with due cause. Lucy kicks ass. She has THE SAME BIRTHDAY AS ME making her pretty cool as is, but on top of being a cancer and having wickedly emo glasses to boot, shes funny, a bit spacie, and radically hard core***. Sorry kiddo, but I think I'm in love! Also, her (slightly) little brother and other friend were awesome too! Into ALL the same stuff as we, and nice too. Plus the friend was a wicked party hound. Respect. Also they have a friend called Alex, who is pretty cute and I’m sure totally gay, that kept staring at me and playing little games. Wow, the sheer sexual veracity of Nelson. We hung round with them for hours, then kicked it back home. That was our trip.
Thank you nelson.

*If you haven't yet, get the song “Jesus Ranch” by Tenacious D. It changed my life. Well sort of.

**It turned out that both David and Tom suck at directions, and I went around a small roundabout twice, cutting off more than one unsuspecting car, and at least one large big-rig truck. He didn't look happy at all. Big trucks have intercom systems that can get the police. Sucks to be the nice cop that let us go.

***Lucy Plays wicked Guitar, they all play something, and have a band. Damn apathetic Marlborough with pipe dreams and f#ck all else!

NO CHILLY DOGS BEFORE BED

A few nights ago I had a weird dream. Now, I don't normally remember many dreams, so when one sticks, its wicked. Except I cant make this one of the sense at all!
I can only recall a pack of Swiss Nuns throwing bundles of wet underwear at me. I am unsure if they were womens underwear.

I realized when I got home, that I hadn't bought anything back from Nelson this time. No books, not toys, no trinkets. Just my socks with e-mail addresses written in blue vivid marker. Very useful, but not quite the same. Though I did get everyone to sign my sock. Why was I wearing 4 socks? Just lucky I guess.
