Tracking the every day minutiae during the worldwide adventure of keen gamer, traveller and bar tender : Simon VanderHeyden
Today is my birthday. 27 years young. To celebrate I have burdened myself with a guitar. Just a cheap Ashton with a hardcase. I have missed playing so much, and there are so many people to jam with and learn off I just had to get one. If only the pommie guy in my room would wake up and leave so I could rock out a bit it would be a great day.
Tonight? Probably drinking. I have been drinking way too much, I really need to ease up if I am going to make it through this year with any money and a liver.
Again : Happy Birthday and enjoy!!! Your VanderH liver will survive!

Im checking your blog everyday as I search for meaning in my life through yours, I’m on virtual trip around the world and seeing things through your eyes is kinda weird because its all hazey but I think that is the alcohol.
Later!

1. fully enclosed weather proof bed/tent;
2. personal floation device/boat (I hear Darling Harbour calling);
3. people smuggling container;
4. esky;
5. porta-loo;
6. perfect mould for making guitar shapes out of play-dough;
7. mugger club (useful as either the mugger when your short on cash or the muggee when someone else is short on cash);
8. manhood enhancer (“is that a guitar case in your pants or are you just happy to see me?” “well actually…”)
9. guitar holding and protection vessel.
The list could go on forever but my lunch break doesn’t… I’m sure you’ll think of more.
