Boredom & schmaltz

greetings to all and sundry who still tune in to uppie's adventures inside his own brain... uppie's view of his reality bears no resemblance what so ever to that reality... however in his own words....

hi all... it's been a busy last couple of weeks, as my Canadian friends sleep, snug and mostly alone in their beds, i will recount for you the tedium of my existence... it is a dark and stormy night here the wind howls around the house and rain squalls wash across the roof intermittently... the last couple of weekends have been spent in Auckland, which is about two and a half hours away by car, watching one of my daughters play age group net ball against the best teams in the country.... they have been getting thrashed mostly so this has been sort of a slow torture.. with hours of boring driving on either side of the afore mentioned event... however big girls in very short skirts has been of some recompense...

the last week i spent in Rotorua, which is the cultural capital of New Zealand and a must stop on the tourist trail.... i was attending the annual congress of the Dairy Workers Union.. this is where all the site delegates get together for a bit of rest and recreation, education oh and booze and food... there are about seventy five of us staying in the hotel... this hotel is also host to busloads of American and Canadian kids who seem to do the whole tourist thing... whenever i hear the canadian accent i cannot resist asking which part they are from and have they heard of the fiend... we have a number of speakers from local politicians to a consultant on international relations... it is also where we discuss proposed changes to the rules and policy of our organization... it's a week i enjoy because i am mixing with intelligent people who more importantly share the same political and social views that i have... well mostly anyway.. on a personal level... well there is the food and the booze... but the best part is i do not have to go to work or go home... ( it is the only holiday i get ) ... there are women to flirt with ( no touching of course ) places to gamble.. ( i lost all my money ) ... and i returned home refreshed and ready to resume the burdon of everyday life... oh i forgot to mention that i got myself elected to the national executive, this body being charged with the day to day running and the financial performance of the Union.. i continued my campaign for election to the post of president.. this position becoming vacant in a years time... i take note that this email is very dry... but i'm feeling rather dry at the moment...

in closing i would say that i miss you all especially the ones i have not had contact with for ages... some of you know each other and some of you know none of my other contacts.. hi to you clariece i hope you are still well and happy... annie i miss your warm persona that fairly glowed from the screen... in fact all of you that have touched my life in various ways.. i know that we move on and have no real point of contact and in fact nothing of relevance to say to each other .. but i hope you remember me with the affection that i do you.. ( especially for you beaklit ).. ok enough schmaltz... as you know this is uppie and all titty flashes will be gratefully received..

i remain as always uppie the faithless

whipped and loving it

this is going to be a sort of rambling uppie thing.... with no punctuation crappy grammar.. in other words just the usual shit typed in a hurry behind the wife's back...it's also late... a couple of weeks back we loaded up the truck and went to Auckland... yes the okauia hill billies went to the big city.. ostensibly to purchase gowns for the girls as they are about to attend their college ball... in reality it was an excuse for uppie and Mrs. uppie to gamble the night away at the casino.... which we did till two in the morning.... we left the triplets at Kiri's sisters place... lucky we were staying there as Kiri's sister had woke us up the next morning... dragging our weary and bleary asses out of bed.... after a quick shower and breakfast.. we loaded up the van with aunty triplets and cousins .. oh and phonebook for dress shop addresses and headed into town... this was my first shopping trip with women.. i tell you all now it is also my last... girl tries on dress.. girl asks father what he's thinks... father says yes buy that one... girls starts to um and err... aunty turns up with another 5 more 1000 dollars dresses to try on... after an hour of this father starts staring wistfully at the cozy little casino bar across the street... then and i mean an " oh for gods sake " then ... we drive across town to restart the whole process at another dress shop.. then another.. then it's lunchtime at some mall which luckily does not have a suitable dress shop... and sadly no casino bar... by this time i'm punch drunk... i throw my wallet at the women and plead.. " buy something "... " anything "... and after another 3 hours they do... i must say the girls look good and it only cost 800 dollars for the two dresses... though they are one time wear dresses... it was then dump the triplets with the cousins.. and aunty and kiri and i went back to the casino to try and recoup last nights losses and pay for the dresses.. which thankfully... although we did not win enough to pay for the dresses we got back our losses and won a couple of hundred which paid the weekends food and petrol expenses... the last funny thing that happened at the casino was.. well i ballsed up the parking ticket and had to return to the casino to get it fixed while the women waited in the car fuming.. you know how women are... anyway being the gambling addict i am i could not resist dropping some coins in a machine that said "play me"... as you know all machines say this.. anyway after two spins the bastard gave me another 130 dollars.. i cashed this and then ran out of the place... the 130 buckaroos placated the fuming women... then it was drive all night to return too the green acres we call home..... i will repeat for all you women and for all you men to take note of.. do not get dragged into a shopping trip for dresses for women by women... enlist.. go to war... anything..
cheers uppie
