It didn’t help.
It’s 2:14 and I’m not asleep.
It’s 2:14 and I’m not asleep.
It was a short workday yesterday, and we’ll have another today. I’m not complaining, mind you. I’m just waiting for the great cosmic system of checks and balances to even things up. Well, come what may, I’ll enjoy this respite now while I can. I finally heard from the Younger Sister yesterday afternoon. I’d been…
With the aid of an appetite enhancing drug, they got CW to eat a bit at the vet’s this morning. He managed to keep it down for a few hours, so after a bit of a talk with the vet on call today we decided to let CW come home and see how he fares…
Regarding a comment to yesterday’s entry … does one offer cookies to a surly fifteen year old boy who desperately needs an attitude adjustment? Putting a makeshift butt can outside is tempting – I’ll have to see how cheaply I can do it without creating a flammable hazard. I set my alarm clock for 4:45…
No cutesy buttons with this one, just some interesting questions. 5 Favorite Drugs Store Items 1. picture frames (my drug store always has cheap and different ones) 2. miniatures (you know, little toothpastes, little shampoos, little soaps) 3. Hair color (ever since I started last summer, I’ve been staring at the boxes, daring myself to…
I’m getting some perspective again. Yesterday I had a Pulmonary Function Test (PFT), a bone marrow biopsy, and a dexascan to check for osteoporosis (evidently a common side effect of liver failure). The PFT was done in the cardio unit of the hospital. There were people there doing cardio-rehab while I waited. Old men with…
Day two of the flu Sneezing becomes a fine art My nose hurts like hell
celtic fest was the middle of september and i missed it! i had the pleasure of just walking to grant park when i lived downtown and catching a few minutes of the various festivals. i don’t own any, but i do appreciate celtic music very much 8)
I don’t understand celtic music. Around here they play it in those stores that sell smelly soap and candles.
Speaking of smelly soap, I’ve a bar that is stuck to the edge of the bath. I can’t take it off for the life of me. I’ve tried prying it off with a butterknife and a screwdriver, but it won’t work! So now when I want to wash my hands in the sink I have to moisten them under the tap, turn around, take a half step, bend down to the side of the bath, rub my fingers on the soap, stand up, turn around, take the half step back and then run them under the sink again. It takes like half an hour!
I love Celtic music, too. G loves to dance to more electronic stuff–rave music, that sort of thing. I pulled out some of my traditional Gaellic tunes for him the other day to show him what adrenaline is really all about. De Danaan dropped him to the floor. 🙂
a few years back i went to Guinness Fleagh (flah)in nyc, lots of wonderful music, the Chieftains performed as well as many other Irish bands, Sinead was there, Patti Smith, Tracy Chapman, Indigo Girls…can’t remember who else at the moment. also got a great piece of art from the many craftsmen who set up shops in the field. needless to say, i had my share of guinness!
Those wacky Celts.
Lots of Irish where I’m from. I like when they make their kids dress up and do their funny dances. It’s like the midgets in Wizard of Oz performing Riverdance.
The Chieftains rule!
=)
LOL
I love celtic music…and even took up playing the penny whistle. I wouldn’t say I’m good, but I love to play it. I drive my family nuts playing the same song over and over again…hahahah

I thought you were pulling our legs about Dick, but I’m a believer now.
I love Celtic music also. Something weird happened to my favorite CD, Celtic Christmas III by Windham Hill, so it won’t play anymore. Vinyl fatigue maybe.
Beautiful lyrics.
