Rob's here...

Before anyone gets on my case about pictures... I just tried to install my picture program onto this computer. It won't work. Apparently I "don't have sufficient priviledges" and we can't figure it out. So it is entirely possible that there will be no pictures until I move to my next host family which happens January 5th.

Anywho, yes Rob is here. Joy took me to the airport to pick him up on Monday. He's already been corrupted by my dear ol' friends (mainly Ed and Simon) The events leading to him being corrupted involve an incident in front of the ATM and him buying *a few* chocolate bars. Plus I left him alone with Sam and Simon for an hour on Tuesday. God knows what happened to him then.

I've already forced him to watch "The Island", "Thank God You're Here", and "Spicks and Specks" Yesterday we sang some Sing Star in Earth Enviro, and went out to Olympic Park where I walked several kilometers in thongs (not a good idea) Tonight we did Christmas shopping and saw "Casino Royale" at Macquarie Centre. Tomorrow I'm sleeping in (because I'm on summer hols now, you see) and then I'm taking Rob into the city.

And he even got his chicken burger from Ed (granted it was drawn on a piece of paper... but he did get a bite of Simon's which Ed did steal from him [Simon], so that has to mean something)

Today's quote comes from an assembly video because Rob brought me "Assembapalooza" and I watched it all last night for the first time in months. I really love this video "Are you freakin' kidding me? The guy's wearing purple mitts!" Steve Schuck, you're my hero!

And a third Canadian checks in! Yup, I know exactly what Sarah and Mathew are talking about - totally surprised when I was called to the staffroom door.

Oh, happy, happy day! Elizabeth's disk with her July to November photos arrived and it works! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I don't wear thongs. I'm assuming you mean feet thongs...although it's not like I wear the other kind of thongs either.

And I'm tickeled pink, I found a basketball game to go to next week! The top Australian basketball league. pretty pumped bout that.

Birdss, please do get my kids to the beach. That's where I would want to be the whole time if I was in Australia right now. And make it your personal mission in life to get Rob to wear flip-flops (the rightful name for thongs). He and his dad have a real aversion to them and sandals of any kind. Rob, think of the cool tan lines your feet would have.

wow, did me, Lize, and Ellie ever have fun today. At first I was a little embarassed to be hanging with them, with the shark song and the numbers game. But then I got caught up in the numbers game as well (damn Leo) and I am determined to learn the shark song. All in all it was a pretty good day.

Rae, being in canada has nothing to do with understanding what a doppelganger is considering me mathew and Mrs King all know. Liz, you will cometo know this person all in good time...hurry home or she may usurp your position in canadian society...just kidding. She's kind of an air head...you have nothing to worry about.

Sarah, I agree she is an airhead but she certainly has a beautiful manicure.

I WANT DETAILS ON THIS PERSON!!!!!
You guys can't do this to me. It's my blog!!
And I haven't kicked the Aussies off. The regulars: Ellie did comment, Ed's computer has been screwed up and she's in Queensland, and Simon's in Woy Woy or some equally funny sounding place... or they all stopped loving me, but if that's the case they don't get their maple syrup!

the ankle and manicure are quite nice, but you (sarah, candace, and mrs king) all seems to have forgotten how amazingly built the doppleganger is.
especially in the bicep region.
