Just testing to see if by posting an article with the title “Dan” I get bumped up when doing a google NZ search on my name. Purely as a test. I would not even think of ego surfing google. Sheesh.

I just got back from the Dentist - I had a tooth pulled, it did’nt really hurt, sure I felt a little pressure but overall it was a painless procedure. Even though I almost fainted again afterwards…I know, I am a bit of a pansy when it comes to these things, blame it on my long golden locks and my soft supple skin. I have a big chunk of cotton wall in my mouth which I have to take out soon - and if it has not stopped bleeding I have to put in another. I would highly recoomend the Gentle Dental Centre to anyone who needs one yanked, and is of the more refined and delicate inclination!!!
Last Friday night Glutnix and I went and saw Mr Scruff play at Sub Nine. He was amazing, he played a great set, mixed up a mixture of (trouser) Jazz, Jazz, Hip Hop, 70’s/80’s funk and Drum and Bass. We bumped in to his mate who went to Music School with Amber and had a good chat before Scruffy came on. The dj’s before Mr Scruff had no concept of music that makes you dance… oh well. I still had a great time!
2004 Parties that I remember:
- Some Dance Party with Amber - the one where i wore xxx’s jacket
- Eden Exploits
- Faithless
- Kevin Saunderson
- Mr Scruff
All these parties were cool in there own way! KS & Mr Scruff were the best.
I just went to the dentist, he checked out my mouth and confirmed what I already thought - I have a wisdom tooth pushing not into another tooth but into the surrounding flesh. It has been causing me quite a bit of pain, on Sunday night I had an aweful nights sleep because of it. When I stood up I almost fell over / fainted. He said that sometimes your mind freaks out at a subconscious level.
Anyway thats the latest news. I will post again… promise…
Ying xiong (Hero) - the cast was fantastic! the story compelling! the location stunning!
Everybody should see this subtitled film produced by the same director responsible for Wo hu cang long (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon).
Last weekend was choice! I had a really good time, what you are about to read is an account of the actions that went on during the weekend… the weekend that Dan did stuff!!!!
Friday Night: Amber and I went to feed the dog (spelling *hmmph*). We had a bit of a fight because we were rushing things. But its all good now. We had dinner with the family at Aranyas. Then we went to Zabibos where the service was SHIT!!!!! It took so long to get our drinks and then it cost a small fortune! Only wanna be jerks go there with more money then sense!!! Anyway that is not completly true, Leon works there! Zabibos undeserving saving grace!!!
Saturday: Had a nice breakfast with Amber. Went to a morning meeting and helped with a Survey. I then went back out to the bourne and hung out in the Sun with Mia, Leon, and Jamie where we just laffed and joked about in the sun. Good fun talking! That night Amber and I looked at flats. Not so nice!!!
Sunday: Went to church. Went home and had a nice ole fashioned breakfast with English Muffins and Tea. Scrummy!!! Inedeed!!! Amber rocks!!!! We did plenty in the garden, moved stuff around, and then went to a BBQ where it pissed down with rain. Some of Cara’s old friends were there. This guy Shaun. That night we went to Red Dog for Pizza, and then saw Hero. What a cool movie!!!!!!
