Uh oh! Kelly's found a wireless internet hotspot, and she's made her ooooown bloooooog. She doesn't know if this photo thing will work, but she does know she's gonna try (and keep talking about herself in the gracious 3rd person). Ummmm... here are my flatmates, sitting on the couch. Yep, they're out of focus, but what are you gonna do about it, huh?
Ok, here's another photo where I'm excited about having a digital camera and being all snappy (schnappi) happy. This one is called "I went to dinner with my sister and my dad and we ate burritos. Or I ate a burrito and the others ate other stuff. But it was good anyway". Evidently, my photo taking is still a bit shite.
And here's... another photo! Wholly Bagels, Batman! This one is eating arochip in aropark, for The Last Time (in a while). Oh joy. The chips were pretty good, and we got onion rings! Am I boring you to death yet? Well: no one's making you look! Sucker!
That night, we went to Indigo to see Die Die Die! They played for about 4 times longer than I've ever seen them play before. That's like 40 minutes! A girl called Bronwyn took some photos of me and Anna. Here is one in which I am posing like a poser and she is dozing like a dozer.
Now for lift-off! Just warning you, from here on in it's probably going to be a whole lot of me taking photos of myself. Because who else do I have to take photos of, huh! I guess there's always bums. I could be like that guy who paid bums to pull their pants down and stuff, and then photographed them. Actually I don't want to disparage the guy, he's a good photographer (not like me. I'm a great photographer!). So here's a photo of the moment I walked into the departure lounge in Auckland airport and instantly abandoned all hope of sitting by someone cool on the plane (sorry old people).
And here I am in San Diego. This is where I walked 25 blocks from one suburb to the next so I could go to this record store that had moved. I was in Hillcrest, I want to be in North Park, but at the moment I'm in some kind of taupe-coloured ridiculously-hot no man's land. I'm deFINITely going to take fewer photos of myself from now on.
Well, here's North Park. It's even got it's own huge sign (as the suburbs around here tend to). North Park is like Jurassic Park, except with dinosaurs instead of whales. Look how sunny it is! Apparently it's always this sunny, except for when it rains, which is about twice in all of history.

Hey Kelly. Your very own BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO&*$%#@#$OOG site. Sorry, that right middle finger of mine got stuck on the capital OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO@#%$#&*OOO.I generally only use it to salute George Dubya, and to examine prostates (preferably at the same time).
What do you mean you no longer care about the election? Grab the salt and lemon juice, knock back a couple of tequilas, put on your best/worst 'faux-Chinese accent' and repeat after me: "My name is Kelly Pendergrast. I'm the Mayor of Wellington and I would like to get a grip on Don's election."
Don replies: "My wife is from Singapore and we like to keep my inflation under 3%. For you though Kelly, 'I feel exteeeension...' Oh, that sounds like a line from a song that I heard on the wireless today; something that old blue-eyes would do so well. Gosh-darn, music has certainly gone to heck-in-a-handbasket since those Elvis Presley types came along...."
Post more pictures.
wowsers!
Hi Kelly, this is Will, I can't seem to log onto your blogger thing so I have to write under 'anonymous'. Dumb eh? Wow, the landscape looks really barren but also kind of interesting. The wierdest thing I remember from California is that the cheese is mostly orange. Maybe that goes for the whole country actually, orange cheese. There's also lots of homeless people, and they get treated really badly. Have you met many cool people yet? Ah! you have to go and get some Mexican. I wish I could have Mexican right now, cause it's lunch time. Ok, over and out.
Hey Kelly,
I was so excited to see your pictures I printed the taupe-tastic one, It's going straight to the pool room (my studio).
Wow! you are actually there, with your cute wee hair cut and the ridiculous heat and taupe and its so far away, doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore, it would be so nice to see your face at my door, but It doesn't help to know, I'll stop. Have fun at skool, and post some more pictures. Of Bums. For your Mums.
