I'm off any second now (should've gone six minutes ago according to my internal deadline but I added an hour onto that to make room for me doing exactly this) to check out of my hostel, head to the train station and go about catching my NZ flight. This is me about to navigate an airport totally by myself for the first time ever. Hm.

On the plus side I am packed and ready to go pretty much on time. Hurrah! On the down side, the cold I caught at the weekend (which by the way? I got soaked to the point of dripping in Sydney and walked twenty minutes to find a Starbucks, was extremely sleep deprived for about a week, then hit Queensland's ridiculously warm climate after being cold and damp in Sydney, then ran around excitedly for two entire days... there are reasons why, other than the fact I have never been to Mexico and Australia so far seems free of pig-related illnesses, that it's not swine flu) is flailing its germful little arms in a last attempt to make me cough. I suspect sitting on a plane full of people and coughing right now is an excellent way to get myself quarantined. Hm. Maybe I should pick up some more cough sweets.

I'm pretty sure falln left yesterday convinced I was riddled with swine disease. Sorry falln! I had fun despite the coughing. :D Inmate meetups ftw!

And now I really have to go. Hopefully the next time I post will be tonight from Auckland. Fingers crossed.

Your parcel arrived this morning - at 7:30am... thank god my postman is used to me opening the door in my pj's and looking like crap. Honestly, who delivers a parcel at 7:30am???

That got there quick! I think I was expecting it to take international post time until I just remembered now, I posted it *in Australia*. Heh. That is ridiculously early though! Why is it when you're desperately waiting for something, the post won't show up until 11am but when it's something that could happily take the extra couple of hours... Clearly postmen are Teh True Evil. :) (Except it got there! Yay! Restoring my faith in the postal system.)
