Taking Things for Granted
Before our Kiwi adventures, I took for granted that crossing the street came naturally to me. When in NZ, I almost got hit by a car about 19 times a day because I DIDN’T KNOW WHICH WAY TO LOOK! I thought that by returning to Canada, I would become a confident pedestrian once again… but NOPE. I’m more confused than ever. While in NZ, not only did I promptly adjust to driving on the left side of the road, but I survived death defying activities such as river surfing, jet boating, white water rafting and bungy jumping. Upon our return to Canada, I quickly re-adjusted to driving on the right side of the road (for the most part) just fine… but crossing the street? Forget it. If I die before I’m 30, it’ll DEFINITELY be a car that takes me down.

Great photo. Fields sound good to me.
I am glad you have survived Canada thus far! Moved out of the parents place yet?
Hi!
I just wanted to say hello. I havent visited your blog in a while and so I wanted to catch up on the adventures. Take care.
Your friend in California.
I am going to start taking it for granted that you did get hit, as it seems we are to get no updates on the new jobs!
Nice post....So can you do another one already. I've checked your blog like 7 times and there's jsut the same post. I'm mean it's good but I feel like I don't know what's going on with you when the latest post is...weeks old!
