I'm Outta Here.

Figured that I should post something substantial to keep you lot busy until I'm back-just in case you don't have a WIP. I'll be away from a computer longer than ever before (*hand trembles and left eye begins to twitch at the thought). Maybe I'll sneak off to an Internet Cafe and post to my own blog anonymously...see what people are saying about me behind my back. Probably dirty stuff (not pointing at anyone in particular).

Am getting a bit verklempt at the thought of missing my online friends. Feel free to discuss amongst yourselves. The subject is pictures from previous posts over the past 9 months. Those of you who have been with me since the beginning may remember some of them. Au Revoir.





Map of Newfoundland...the island I will be escaping for a while.

Pan of brains. I have sampled brains before in previous travels. Does not taste like chicken.

This ugly bugger looks a bit like someone I know.


Him too...


Ahh...the horror of it.



Three years playing violin in public school, and I could only hope to be half the musician of Will.



Just because...



Photo of a travelling companion from a previous trip.



Apologies to Mike Meyers...

Hmm, after looking at the pictures I think you need, I mean, deserve a rest.
Have a wonderful time! We'll still remember your name when you get back, Alvin.

Have fun Al! Remember don't drink the water! Unless it's been sterilized with a good single malt.

Oh how I shall miss you-- but at least you've left us with several awesome laughs, and a few deep thoughts. (Hey, it's deep for me, okay!)

Bon voyage!

Kat said...

Lol. Ugly bugger? A bit harsh, some folks like pale and pasty. Hehehe.

Have a good trip, Alan!

:)

There is no way in hell I could ever eat brains.

Have a fantastic trip.

This always happens _ you get attached to someone and then, bam, they're gone.
Have a fabulous, fabulous time and don't give us wankers another thought.
(Laura - Alvin - HA!)
So, what do you guys think of this Alvin character anyway? I mean, sure, he's got great hair and he wicked cheesecake soirees, but other than that, what's he got that Anton hasn't got? Other than skin colour?

Laura Eno said...

Well, Cathy, I heard that he wears a kilt in the traditional way...

Dying with laughter about the Batman pic!

Have a great time! We'll miss you. Try to sneak out to that internet cafe at least once.

Karen from Mentor said...

Boy oh boy are you going to be sad that you missed my flash today.

Sometimes the internet is no more than a bind. Enjoy your time of liberty. You will be missed.
Come back soon. :)

I SAW THAT PICTURE OF ANTON ON THE OSCARS LAST NIGHT!
I nearly pooped my drawers!

Paula RC said...

Something waiting for you at my blog... I hope you can drop by and pick it up when you have the time... Maybe we can chat over a cuppa too.

John Wiswell said...
