It didn’t help.
It’s 2:14 and I’m not asleep.

Back on Monday, June 17th I stopped bringing the mail in. Nobody noticed. I gave up and brought it in the Sunday after. I became curious. The next week I didn’t bring the mail in. On Sunday I brought in five days worth of mail. The next week I didn’t bring the mail in. On…
Ah, what’s wrong with my legs? I’m on a medication that keeps my blood from clotting as quickly as normal people’s blood does. Four years ago, as a fourth year veterinary student, I was kicked by a thoroughbred in my front right thigh. Because I bleed easily, the kick caused a lot of damage, and…
Bonus points to anyone who can identify the song and group the title line is paraphrased from. My arms are literally covered with bruises from carrying boxes around for the last week. I’m on coumadin, a blood thinner, so I do tend to bruise a little more easily than the average person. But this looks…
Got a call from my liver transplant coordinator this morning. She’s hyperventilating far more over the MRI results than Dr. Liver was, and wants the bone scan and Chest CT done ASAP. I called the hospital and they could scedule a bone scan as early as tomorrow morning, so I made the appointment. I won’t…
Too much time on my hands today. It’s a “regular” work day, in that I have to be in the office, but except for an early morning problem, I’ve not been called on to do anything, nor do I expect to be for another few hours. The plan was originally to put the Christmas lights…
It was the Day from Hell at work yesterday. Today promises a little relief, though not as much as I’d like. To compound things, it’s hot out there! The thermometer outside my office door registered 94 yesterday afternoon at around 4:00. Blegh. Recolored my hair Tuesday night. I think I might have left it on…
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.
