Quick one today ... cos I'm tired :-( getting old and need my sleep, haha.

I'm off to Ashburton (in the south island for you foreigners reading this) on wednesday with my family. I'm flying down, they're driving, but I'll come back up in the car with them. I have work on wednesday so driving down with them isn't really an option. So I'm going to christchurch for the night, staying with my friend Todd (my ex from like 9 years ago, haha). Then I'm going to ashburton the next day when mum and dave drive through. I'll be away just over a week. I'll be back in time for new years, cos there's no way I'm doing new years in a little hick town :-) No idea what my new years plans are yet, cos my original ones have backfired, but there's heaps to do, so something will work out.

Speaking of work ... its been busy winding down to the holiday season. Things are going to be very very busy next year when we come back, but I'm looking forward to it! just means less time muckin around on email and myspace.com during work time .... oops.

Today I started work bright and early at 8am, then tonight I went out for coffee with a new friend ... or "friend" ... hmm not sure just yet. Definitely worth seeing again though I'd say ;-) Then I did some of my christmas shopping, so its been a busy day! And on that note, I'm going to bed. Time for my beauty sleep so I can get up bright and early at 6am tomorrow. Have a good christmas if I don't see you, talk to you, etc before then. Merry Christmas, and remember the reason for the season. Christmas isn't just about santa and gifts.
