Get Your Motor Running, Head out On The Highway

Somehow I managed to pull an extra week out of my ass, so in a matter of minutes I am packing the car and The Dreaded One and I are heading up the coast to spend my ass week at and around Byron Bay. Two weeks in total.

Funny thing was, I had cut my holiday short out of concern for things going smoothly at the mag. Then I got in yesterday to overlap with the guy filling in, and to save a day's pay they told filling in guy to go home, somewhat defeating the whole point of me going in. Then, suddenly, I wondered if I really cared all that much. And the answer was no. I don't care anymore. I just wanted to be the hell out of there and using a bit of my time for me. So I asked if I could finish yesterday and if I could come back later.

So it's cruising up the coast for me. With no care in the world. Wind in my hair and all that. looking for adventure in whatever comes our way...

Pathetically, I bet I duck into an internet cafe to post something here. Geek.

Pity we drive a station wagon and not a chopper, but what the hell... boooooorn to be wiiiiiyyyiiiiild...
