12.5 hrs till I wake up..

Postby PlatinumWeaver on Thu Aug 04, 2005 4:28 pm

In 12.5hrs I'll be waking up ( 4am ) so I can get to the airport and be on my way up to sydney.

Why on earth didn't I just pay a little bit more and take a later flight? Oh yeah... bloody lens lust... :twisted:

Birddy: Generic Lens lust, which is to lay generic lust for all lenses, rather than lust for generic lenses..

gstark: Looking forward to being there.. hey.. can I sign up for the dinner now? *ducks*

MHD: <solemn voice> It began a long time ago, now we finish it.. </solemn voice>

Birddy Again: Hey.. i'm going to the US ( not really ) give me the D70s and I'll hand it over to the winner personally. I won't even charge you postage!!

okay.. yep.. I think the adrenaline just kicked in..

Make a good smile or have a nice joke with a check-in girl tomorrow morning at the airport and things will flow smoothly.

At Easter the Vigin Blue check-in girls were wearing bunny ears, and I had a comment, and she said you should see my tail. I passed up on the offer.
