Front Page News

What is going on in Northern Ireland is very… scary.  It’s almost like before the peace agreement.  We’re all a little stunned, and don’t know what’s really brought on the attacks on police and soldiers.  The economy?  Who knows.  Anyway, I’m sure you’ve all heard about it.

In not so front page news, I’ve got my tickets to Vienna and Macedonia.  It’s going to be the most convoluted trip to Skopje, but I won’t get into that.

I went to a Celtic music night at Brice and Olive’s church last Saturday which was good fun.  Elena came along… she thought people from up here were a little mean, but now her opinion is changing.  As it should, you all know how I value Brice and Olive.

I am taking Tuesday off next week and going to do St Patrick’s Day things.. parades, parties, Celtic Music, dancing… also doing that Monday night and Sunday maybe and Saturday the Irish market at St. George’s.  I’m looking forward to this weekend!

A little more worldly than last week

So I had a great weekend down in Ireland.  Of course, as soon as I make plans to do something I get loads of people wanting to hang out!  Sigh… so it goes.  Anyway, I’m really glad I decided to do the tour.  It was quite cheap, in itself, it was all the food and beer I had that was expensive (and boy is alcohol expennnnnsive down south.)

Anyway, for a quick breakdown, here goes.  I am so tired, not much sleep lately, was at the gym (I actually felt quite angry at myself as I forced myself to get to 10800 in 50 minutes on my fun little rower), haven’t showered, and I made my bed and halfway cleaned my super messy room…. so that’s my excuse if this is short.  I feel like I want to gossip about something or other, but just the weekend.
