NCL called me last night with a flight date for my STCW training. I'm leaving for Honolulu on the 15th!
This doesn't give me very much time to make a list of things I will need to bring. Or a list of people I would like to see before I go. Who cares though, I'm going to Hawaii before this weather swallows me whole and spits out my big toes. Actually on sunday the CEO of the company was on undercover boss on ABC. I saw a commercial so I decided to tune in, which I'm glad for because he was on my boat. So I got to see a sneak peek of what my boat looks like, as well as some of the adventures I can have on board. I'm especially excited that the crew food doesn't look that bad, and the gym looks amazing. I still don't know if I can bring my guitar or not.
In other news, on New Years Eve some couch surfers contacted me saying they'd like to find something to do to bring in the new year. I invited them to come see Jason Anderson's Dress to Impress party/concert. All the while thinking they said they were australian. As it turns out, they came in speaking in thick accents. They were austrian. There's no proper way for me to describe how funny that mixup ended up being, but I assure you it was. Still, Heidi and her sister wound up being amazing girls, and they were a lot of fun to hang out with. We all danced until 2011 reared it's head. Fantastic! Also, they want to host me in Austria if I can ever get there. Exciting!
And now I'm off to get my hawaii hair did, and to hopefully share drinks with the best of them before I depart.
Until then!
