blue moon...

Yes, tonight is the night of the blue moon!! Looks beautiful too.

A bit of madness to boot. :o)

Benny called last night to let me know that he was back in the country.... yay!! Of course, this also meant dealing with the fact that his car has been a garden ornament for the last 2 months. Yes, a sore point in my life......

So... he came into work today, which meant I also got to catch up with his Mum too, which is always fun! Tonight, he was lucky enough to be around for a chickflick!! What a lucky guy. Such perfect timing - not everyone is as lucky as to get to join me at such an event. (Yes, there were a few tears shed)
From there - Mexican. YUMMY stuff.... even went for a corona, which I haven't had in ages. Time flies when you're just catching up with someone. Has been great.
So now he's crashed out in the living room.... not even sure if I'll see him again before he leaves? Be abit of a bummer....

He kind of threw a spanner in my world by asking if I would be interested in joining him on the hollyford track, working at one of the huts along the walkway for the summer.....
actually sounds like quite an awesome job for 6 months! Pretty much doing all the cooking and cleaning in the hut while people are staying, which is only every other day, and it's only 10 days on 4 days off - which would be sweet. Pretty busy, but very cool! :o) Tough one, especially when I have my interview in Auckland next Friday. Hmmmmmmmm... could pretty much say that I would be paid more doing this one, then the security, but it's only 6 months - which is a bonus, and not all at the same time. Could save my pennies furiously, and then just take off. Yes, the idea of just saying goodbye to the obligations and responsibilities of my life. hahaha

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm........... will have to let that one fester. Jiljane just stared at me when she realised I was actually taking this seriously.
Kayaking during the days, hanging out in the bush when there wasn't anyone staying.... what a tough summer... the rest of the time, socialising, cooking... ok cleaning I could skip - but I can handle it too.... love the whole hospitality thing... would be a good breakin period to see if I would actually enjoy the backpacker life style. :o)

All madness....
with those thoughts - I go to howl at the moon.

Ka kite
