A Bird in the House
Sunday I was reading in the lounge when I heard a small commotion behind the heater, and out flew a little bird (a green finch). Not sure how it got there, but it flew around and landed on our wall clock, then fell behind the wall clock. It cheeped loudly, then flew out and landed upside down behind the TV. I was able to catch it and place it gently on the porch outside, where it sat for a while looking at me and cheeping, then finally flew off. A happy ending.
You know, when I had my bird Amigo, I was surprised by how many people did not want me to let it out of it's cage, afraid it would fly in their hair. And then there was my friend Stacy, who insisted on knocking the cage over every time she came round, sending bird and birdseed everywhere. Poor Amigo!

OK, I switched my little weather clicker below because this one will take you to a page that has Upper Hutt weather on it. No big deal, but it's a little more accurate. If anyone's interested.

Congratulations Beth and Jason!
Well, on Thanksgiving Simon and I went to a restaurant in Wellington, where I had the blackened turkey kebabs and jambalaya rice with sour cream and a piece of pecan pie, and Simon had the traditional Thanksgiving steak with mushrooms. Then we saw a pod of whales on the way home. Pretty cool, huh?

A little Thanksgiving humor, courtesy of my friend Tanya:
THINGS THAT SOUND DIRTY AT THANKSGIVING BUT ARENT
1. "Talk about a huge breast!"
2. "Whew, that's one terrific spread!"
3. "It's a little dry. Do you still want to eat it?"
4. "Tying the legs together will keep the inside moist."
5. "Just lay back and take it easy. I'll do the rest."
6. "I'm in the mood for a little dark meat."
7. "How long do I beat it before it's ready?"
8. "Use a nice, smooth stroke when you whip it."
9. "Don't play with your meat."
10. "Just spread the legs open and stuff it in."
11. "How long will it take after you stick it in?"
12. "You'll know when it's ready when it pops up."
13. "If I don't undo my pants, I'll burst!"
14. "That's the biggest one I've ever seen!"
15. "Do you think you'll be able to handle all these people at once?"
16. "I didn't expect everyone to come at once!"
17. "It's Cool Whip time!"
18. "You still have a little bit on your chin."
19. "Are you ready for seconds yet?"

Hey, check out the bottom of the page for weather info in Upper Hutt. It wasn't working when I first set it up, and if it continues not to work I'll switch it to Wellington, but I thought it would be fun for you to see the weather here. Enjoy!

The page I wish I had created
Dennis has sent me a couple of strips from a comic he reads on the net, Buzzboy, because Buzzboy has been in New Zealand. I wondered why he was in New Zealand, so I went to the site myself. Turns out, the guy who writes the strip's wife is here to do some marketing for a mall management company she works for, so they are down here until mid-December. Anyway, they have created a site about their experience down here, and I thought you might be interested in seeing it. Hopefully I will get it together enough to do something like this for my friends pretty soon, but until then, check this one out.

This past Sunday was Guy Fawkes, a British celebration that has made it here because of all the Brits. It is really just an excuse to watch some fireworks. They have big fireworks celebrations, but they also sell fireworks, and not just little firecrackers either. Simon and his brother set them off at his parent's house for our viewing enjoyment, and Simon got a little hair burned off the back of his head from getting too close to a firework going off. Then his mom had a bonfire, and they were throwing the empty firework containers on the bonfire, which would have been alright except - some of them weren't lit yet, and started going off every which way. Luckily, no one lost an eye or finger or hand or anything, and a good time was had by all.

OK, people, time to get out your poles. That's right, it's Festivus time. Laurie has informed me that Ben & Jerry's has released a new ice cream flavor called Festivus. Remember, from Seinfeld, George's father's holiday? It's brown sugar ice cream with gingerbread and cinnamon. Will someone *PLEASE* buy some and put it away for me so when I come back I can try it. And we can air our grievances at that time. Thank you.
