But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies

It's time to blow this popsicle stand, and I'm doing it the only way I know how: by blowing a hefty wad of cash on airfares. Having done so, I hereby refuse to do any more blowing.
  • 2nd - 15th of July I'll be in Spain, beginning and ending in Madrid, but inbetweenies through pamplona and barcelona, and whatever I pass through in doing so. At various points meeting up with Jo S., Tori D., and Gay Dodgy Steve.
  • 15th - 26th of July I'll be in Austria, where I intend to do some hiking in the alps and hook up for a beer or many with old mates Robbo and Sabine. Possibly also purchase some lederhosen.
Then it's back to UmeƄ for a couple of weeks of work, then:
  • 16th August, 6:12pm, I touch down in Las Vegas
  • Charging white A-Team-van jubbliness through Calexico and Mexifornia
  • wedding-style action wearing "enhance your fancy dance pants" in San Diego
  • Hot soapy jubbliness of a nature not yet fully understood up the California coast
  • 31st Aug, 8:00am, I fly out of San Fransisco
Back in Sweden on the 1st of Sept. Same day, my pares arrive and stay until the 6th.

I think the next few months are gonna just fly by in one of those warp-speed scenes where the stars turn into lines and chewbacca groans for he is once again saying goodbye to a place where he didn't belong and felt like a big hairy alien, because that's what he was.

Not yet sure who will play the part of chewbacca.

No offence!

Eat shit phoebe. "No offence".

Anyway, to move away from the unlikely medium of Ian's blog to insult my (in)significant other; best of luck on your world travels Ian.

I find it an interesting coincidence that the description of 'gay-dodgy-steve' could easily be accredited to Island Steve. Perhaps everyone called Steve is secretly dodgy and/or gay? This seems a logical conclusion given our sample size.

hehehehe!! I seem to have hit a nerve there...

(in)significant other???? ooooohhhh, them's fightin' words! come 'ere 'n say that!) erm....

And strangely enough, most of the steves I've ever met are indeed gay and/or dodgy....hmmm.... making the sample size ever larger - I think you've got something there...

Interestingly enough, I met GD Steve on the previous jaunt to the island, which as we know is the perfect forum for displays of both gayness and dodgyness.

Increasing the statistical validity of your hypothesis, which I have long suspected myself, the most significant Steve in my life has boobies and is a very big fan of man-snuggles. But I think in the dodgyness stakes, the two islanders have a slight edge. (work on it LB.)

p.s. lil bro, as much as I'd love to go at warp speed with William Rehnquist, sadly he/she will not be joining me on this particular journey

going at warp speed is NOT a way to win over the lay-dies, just so as you know.

Can I just point out that love is beautiful? (gestures above).

oh to pine for William Rehnquist, t'is both beautiful and very very wrong.

a guy from work called Steve asked me out recently - he wears muscle tops and doesn't have all his fingers.

case closed.

doesn't have all his fingers - supports dodgy hypothesis.

Asked you out - supports gay hypothesis?

Sorry bambi, but you left yourself wide open there!

Bambi? me a boy? been a while since that has come up - might I add that the Heathrow has given me some curves - I even have to wear a bra most days.

Sounds like you are going to have a blast! Must say that I thought that Pamplona sucked, but I was their during siesta. I got so shitty that everythign was shut that I just kept driving pointing the car roughly in the direction of Barcelona.

And may I just say that London is bloody hot. I really don't know what everyone always complains about!!
