So while I'm here...

I'm back in Auckland airport again. I know. I used the word again.

I've been here so many times this year its just been flipping scary/annoying. I know exactly where to go, what to do, where to check in, where to get stuff, where to amuse myself (minds out of gutters, please), and who knows, after this trip and the following one, this might be the last time I'll step into this airport for a while. 

Interesting. 

I'm excited at what life has to bring. I'm excited as to what's coming up next. I'm excited as to what's going to happen within the next two years (because apparently, my contract binds me for 2 years so whether I like it or not, I'll be stuck in the 35 degree weather getting hot, sweaty, down, and dirty with a good ole' bachata. +P

As I'm absolutely thrilled about what life will be like and I'm also pissed scared out of my skull. But I don't mind. I'm here. And I know I'll be okay. 

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, does it not? And even if it does kill you, hey, at least I went out with a bang. Rather that than a boring death on deathbed. 

And how this conversation just went from exciting to "what-the-fsck-is-he-going-on-about?", hey, I have no idea.

But a few random things that happened today. 

The Sociologist of Treehousekitchen fame said today, "I think your dance shoes live in your head." Oh, so true. 

And then I read this funny quote that made me laugh out loud. Well, not so much a quote but an entire paragraph that shows the futility of the human race when trying to show off their religious self-importance.

 I was walking across a bridge one day and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off.

So I ran over and said, "Don't do it!"

"Why shouldn't I?" he said.

I said, "Well, there's so much to live for!"

He said, "Like what?"

I said, "Well...are you religious or atheist?"

He said, "Religious."

I said, "Me too! Are you Christian or Buddhist?"

He said, "Christian."

I said, "Me too! Are you Catholic or Protestant?"

He said, "Protestant."

I said, "Me too! Are you Episcopalian or Baptist?"

He said, "Baptist."

I said, "Me too! Are you Baptist Church of God or Baptist Church of the Lord."

He said, "Baptist Church of God."

I said, "Me too! Are you Original Baptist Church of God or are you Reformed Baptist Church of God?"

He said, "Reformed Baptist Church of God."

I said, "Me too! Are you Reformed Bapist Church of God, Reformation of 1879, or Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915?"

He said, "Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915."

I said, "Die heretic scum,"" and pushed him o.ff.
