Planing on going to Brisbane Aus early nxt yr

Lol, you don't need all that hassle. You are just complicating things by trying to do it over the phone, or getting the airline to do it for you. I went to Australia two years ago for 3 months. It's like, a quick form you fill out in like, three minutes and it normally gets approved in less than an hour.

Also it's good for 90 days at a time, but the visa lasts for a year, so you don't have to wait to apply. You can use 90 days any time in that one year space.

Here is the link you need:

I just looked at that, when I hit the select country part, Australia isn't showing up. I think that link is for people living in Australia. Fuck I cant read EDIT, I read it wrong, you were right. Sorry.

The other thing about all this, is I cant begin to tell you how many associates of all the places I called the past 3 days mistook me for a woman. I AM NOT KIDDING. 

 l have never had a brawny deep voice, but I listen to myself and also don't know how people can mistake me for female?

Funny thing is though, long before all this, I can tell you that even my mom's friends when they would call, would mistake me for her and her for me?

I don't believe in an afterlife, but this shit was funny, if I was a believer, I'd almost think it was my mom having a laugh on my part.

That cuts it, I'm not going, now you've scared the shit out of me.   

I like the black guy, "This place is worse than America!"

I like that the agent said to the guy from India, "Whatever they pay you working at 7-11 in India, they pay less here." THAT WAS HORRIBLE!

Speaking of customs, when we were coming back from Japan, my wife put food in our luggage that really she was not supposed to. She sent me first through customs with it, and walked behind me as if she were not with me. NICE. They didn't check me, but still. I felt like a drug mule.

THAN YOU, I just did that today, got stuck trying to put in the Us area code to submit my phone number. BUT worked like a charm conformation for my Visa came right back to my e mail and cell. So basically it will be attached to my passport and Australia will have all my info when I arrive.

Now all I have to do is book a hotel.

Well his sister is saying I can stay at his old house, they are trying to sell it, but even if it sells before then the closing wont be complete until after I leave so. BUT the house is on an Island with no bridges, and if the ferry becomes too much of a pain in the ass, I may get a hotel anyway because I don't want her to wait on me nor do I have to want to be tied down to time frames.
