today was one of my favourite days ever. i went on a road trip with two older married men. dreams can come true.

it came about because we went to rotorua for a series of meetings. the meetings were a-ok. i could have been more spectacular of course but in the scheme of things, i thought the day a success. then it came time to head back to wellington and we discovered our flight was cancelled. due to wellington weather. which was something like this only worser.

so we hopped back in our rental car and hit the road. and seriously, it was like a sleep over. i had the time of my life. we talked about work. probably too much. and we talked about our dreams. gush. and how old we are. and where we live. and what i'm looking for in a partner. that's right... i got them talking about internet dating.

we decided that internet dating is the new arranged marriage. because it forces us to think about compatibility - independently of lust (which usually clouds judgement). i'm so in to this theory. but i'm also into lust. so, you know, action may not follow theory in this case.

we had dinner at the flashest restaurant in taihape. and sang along to jimi hendrix. and i probably sounded like a know it all. but what i am is what i am. and what else? at the end of the seven hour drive we said goodbye and i wanted to kiss them because i know i will never have such an awesome time with them ever again. but instead i said thanks for the awesome night. now i'm going to bed because sitting in the passenger seat is soooo exhausting. good night.
