Ok - so I may spend a bit too much time in hotel rooms thinking about stupid stuff. When you have a job like me that warrants a lot of travel, it comes naturally.
I think about stupid stuff all the time like how to get free hotel porn pay-per-view movies, how to maximize the amount of free soap you get, and why oh why do the maids in EVERY hotel I’ve EVER stayed at do this:
Does my toilet paper really need daily folding? I don’t do this at home - and it works just as good. In fact - I’m a bit grossed out by the fact that someone has touched my toilet paper and folded it as such.

Spent this Monday and Tuesday in Adelaide for work. From my limited time there, it seemed like a nice place - a lot cleaner and more peaceful than Sydney. People even seemed more friendly there. I guess that tends to be true when you get to smaller and smaller towns.

Wish I had more of a chance to get to know Adelaide better - but such is the life of the business traveler. Next week - back to the northern hemisphere for a couple weeks: a conference in Orlando (woo! Disney World!) then a stop over to visit my bro and my new niece!
And now for something a little less food oriented…
While in Wellington for work last week, I took some shots and videos here and there - for my good ol’ pal Murf. Here’s the results of gluing them together to music in hopes of maximizing their entertainment value:
