In short - One tale in two tellings

Kia Ora kind folk,

I'm soon off to sleep but once again I though I should take advantage of wi-fi and write this short post in bed (I submit the people's exhibit A as evidence).
And before anyone becomes suspicious and their sleuthing skills kick into hyperdrive, I'll explain the reasons for the woman's blouse in the background of the photo. No, I have not been suckered in and corrupted by the lure of the Hollywood lifestyle and shacked up with someone. Rather, I am house sitting. Some friends of the McManus' are away and I accepted their offer to watch their house for a week (I submit the people's exhibit B).

I hung out with Harry tonight (no not Potter, but Dirty).
Having some space to myself has allowed me to do some much needed conjuring and writing down of ideas swirling around my head. I'm in an on going process to recording my observations and insights gleamed through my experiences here.

Another benefit of house sitting is that it is the first time since I have arrive that I have cooked for myself two days in a row (other than toast, and even then).


Coming up this week, I have a retreat with the intern group I'm in. This is the one with the Apprentice inspired challenge. We are going to Big Bear I think which will be 30 to 50 Fahrenheit, which roughly translates to 0 to 10 degrees.
Anyway got to jet. Hopefully I be able to post on the more meaningful recent events in the next couple of days before I go away - hence the one tale in two tellings thing. BTW - my cell if anyone wants to give me a text - 1 562 201 0337. (Fats - is that the number that displays at your end?) Night everyone.

yeah bro, the number you have displayed is exactly what comes up here.
I am glad you are taking care of yourself and ladies blouses, I reckon while you are there you should find yourself a Kiwi flag to hang out the front next to the star spangled Banner.
Give the neighbours something to talk about.
Can you make sure you take heaps of pics at Big Bear, i have always wanted to visit there and Big Sur,

cheers,

J to the ONO

....so the blouse?.... I don't think you've really explained it. I mean, yeah you're house sitting.. but last time I checked, that didn't give you permission to prance about their house in their clothes. Hehe. Love ya benny!
