The Mrs. is gone for the day.

What should I do?

1. Wank most of the day.
2. Wank all day.

So, I stumbled upon a shop that sells the most incredible array of bacon themed products:

http://www.mcphee.com/shop/categories/Awesome-Stuff/Bacon-&-Meat

I scratched my head and thought "I know this shop from somewhere, it sounds familiar".

This is my partners drink bottle:
.
Apparently it's a shop where she will be taking me during our USA visit.

Anyone want me to bring back some bacon goodness?

The question is more about surviving the trip.

I know I don't want to set myself up for disappointment.

Because I have a job.
And I don't have the time to spend 2 hours on hold.
And when I get home it's either after hours or the weekend.

I was somad last week when I remembered that show day is only a holiday in Christchurch, and had missed the perfect opportunity to go postal over the phone :<

You know what sucks? Not having the car, being in a lazy mood and being incredibly hungry.

Oh, and it's raining, hard.

So I'm doing some thinking into what my options are for money when I get to the states (CC, cash, checks etc.)

Getting a debit card sounds like a good idea because it gives me access to my ordinary funds and the availability of using it where Visa is accepted. I read the small print and my anus puckers.

In addition, the rate of exchange shown on your statement for converting each overseas ATM withdrawal into New Zealand dollars includes a margin added by Visa International Service Association of 1% of the New Zealand dollar value of your withdrawal. So if I want to withdraw $1000 NZ cash which is very likely not only am I going to get charged BNZ's fee of $10 for an international withdrawal fee, but Visa is going to take a further $10 on top of that.

It also includes BNZ's Currency Conversion Fee of 1.25%. WHAT!? Visa is already charging a fee of 1% for the exchange and you are charging it again?

On top of this there is a yearly fee for just owning the card and other fees for your usual banking activities. So, for the simple process of withdrawing $1000, $32.50 is being hijacked. That's disgusting.

Yeah, I'm having a big lazy day. Hunger has kicked in and it has kicked in hard. Been working my ass off all week because Tiva has been out all week doing practical work at a vet which leaves her no time to do housely duties.

I'd rather buy popcorn chicken from MacDonalds than KFC. 1. They are terribly expensive. 2. You rarely get what you order. 3. I don't like being served by 14 year olds who have the grey matter of runny ice cream.
