Reminds me of a time where I was at a party, got my friend to try straight vodka Do not want it on my floor.

First time I tried it, my friends were amazed I could stomach it straight. I enjoyed it and had a whole wine glass of the stuff (friend hosting us was too lazy to get out shot glasses).

 

[Galeongirl]

Nope. Dad's in New Zealand and Mum's up in Queensland. I've no relatives within 1,000km of me.

But I can totally see myself enjoying popping down to Dad's vineyard. It's in Central Otago. I looove Central Otago. Gorgeous part of the world.



Why not.

oooh we're so going there then!


i'll be there for 'cultural' reasons...

 

[Axver]

Don't forget, I'm a travel agent

In that case, got any free tickets to Europe floating around?

 

[WildHoney]

not if they're cooked the right way with a bit of butter, parsley and garlic...

Too french for me

I prefer the taste of meat in my mouth

Hahaha. I'd be on that plane so fast.

That sounds about like the time that we all had whiskey last summer.

 

[Galeongirl]

Raise the money to get me there and I'll challenge you to a quality drink-off.

awesome! I'd love to try that some day!

I'm sure you will ...

My father's vineyard will be near here (Wanaka):

 

[Axver]

awesome! I'd love to try that some day!

Must admit, four glasses of port in, I'm starting to feel mildly tipsy. Mildly, mind you.

 

[Galeongirl]

damn, that's quite the view there!

 

[WildHoney]

I'm sure you will ...

My father's vineyard will be near here (Wanaka):

Pretty

Is that anywhere near where Kim lives??

 

[Serena Vox]

-is what I'm having now-

My brother got sick all over the floor and passed out.

But nothing tops the time he passed out in the kitchen doorway!

 

[Axver]

And the motherfuckin' All Blacks take the lead! 21-17 it is now. My two favourite numbers too.

And now Channel 7's commentators are trying to blame the ref for New Zealand scoring. Hahaha. God, 7 can't cover sport at all. They're hopeless. The Olympics proved it, the AFL proves it, and the rugby's proving it in lulzworthy fashion.

 

[Jackson Vox]

My brother got sick all over the floor and passed out.

Yes... Not nice.

But nothing tops the time he passed out in the kitchen doorway!

Been there... Done that.

Not pretty.

 

[Axver]

Pretty

Is that anywhere near where Kim lives??

Nope, Wanaka's down the south end of the South Island, while Kim's in the northern half of the North Island.

 

[Serena Vox]

I love how shuffle decides to pick Stupid Dream, THEN Piano Lessons.

 

[Serena Vox]

Yes... Not nice.


Been there... Done that.

Not pretty.

I almost passed out on the back porch last Monday. And apparently, I had a 3 hour conversation with the trashcan. I was told I got sick, but nobody really knows for sure as I had my head down IN the trashcan.

Fail Serena

Daniel Carter, I fucking love you! 28-17 to New Zealand.

Now that's arse-backwards for you!

i will get to NZ one day

 

[Serena Vox]

Now that's arse-backwards for you!

I know! And it's far from the first time it's done that. If I set it to shuffle, I've noticed it'll get around to like, Blackest Eyes and Orchidia, then maybe Trains or Lazarus (not all one after another, mind you.) and then when it finally DOES get to the rest of the tracks, it does Stupid Dream first, then Piano Lessons. Silly shuffle!

 

[Axver]

Serena, this is one of the reasons why I don't use shuffle: the dodgy segues.

I tend to just listen to albums straight through. But then I have almost 13,000 songs in my iTunes, so ...

Boy if that doesn't sound familiar!

Dodgy segues: Exactly why I stopped using shuffle in the first place, in addition to the fact that it tended to just copy how I was feeling!

 

[Axver]

Boy if that doesn't sound familiar!

Don't worry, I'm consistent. I've fucking loved Danny Carter since 2002. I was calling him as the next great All Black long before anybody was paying attention to him.

Also, this French brie is amazing.

Plus I find shuffle just chooses shit songs, or arbitrary combinations that make no sense. In any case, I'd rather just choose what to play myself!

Fuck, try to Australia, now the Kiwi lead is down to 28-24. Two minutes to go. This'll be tense! Go Kiwi!
