another day in paradise.

Dublin, Ireland


well, unfortunately i don't have much to tell you.

yesterday we all just slept in, then moved the party to the couch where we watched movies, napped, and drank lots of water. so much for driving out to howth, but we can save that for another day.

then today i had to wake up early to go to that meeting that i missed on wednesday. i found the place easily today and made it to my meeting on time. after the 2 hour "welcome to dublin" meeting with about an hour an 55 minutes of information i already knew, i ventured out to get myself a "Mobile".

so now i have a cell phone at least. now i somewhat feel like a local... without the accent.

anyway, i went shopping for a bit afterwards, but had to stop at home when the rain was coming down in buckets from all directions. then, 5 minutes later, when it was sunny again, i went to the mall.

the weather is so random here! i love it!

we had dinner, then i suggested we walk across the street to the pub (that they have never been to! just seems wrong.) for a pint of bulmers or two. we were responsible and actually only had 2 pints, then came home.

at least it's not raining anymore, but it is so windy we could hardly walk against it. still beautiful though.

anyway, it's another quiet night here in dublin. i've been searching for apartments and jobs, as i'd like to have somewhere to live when i get back from Denmark next week. i'll keep you posted.

here's the lovely view from our patio here in dundrum, dublin. it's a little funny because at the end of the street you'll notice a brick wall (it's dark, i know) that is actually the entrance to the mental hospital next door. i question that this building is actually part of it, but morten and preben always deny it.

goodnight everyone!

Britt! I go away for the weekend and holy crap, look at all the adventures I have to catch up on! With your permission I will continue to live vicariously through you as my life here in Pocompton fails in comparison to your adventures. Sigh...I remember the Brazen Head and what Bulmers used to taste like...sigh. Keep up the wicked blogs and hey! Why the hell have you not been to the Foggy Dew yet?!

I want to make love to you on a mountain top.

Seriously though, I do feel like a bit of an ass for not having commented on your blog yet, because it is magnificent. It is like looking into the face of God and seeing him smiling back and saying, "You are my most wondrous creation."

Sounds like you're having an awesome time, and I am 173% jealous. I miss you.

^^

A man and a walrus walk into a bar. The walrus takes a seat, the man remains standing. The walrus orders a beer, the man orders a scotch on the rocks, then sits down.

"Where's Britt?" Says the man to his sea dwelling companion.

"Ireland." The walrus grumbles.

"Oh." Replies the man.


[End scene.]
