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

Been an interesting few days, oh few and faithful. I know quite well that the best laid plans of mice, men and salamanders oft go astray, but somehow I continually fail to take that into account. Here is a summary of this past weekend. My six-month regular dental appointment was 8:45am Saturday. I like to…
Larmes de cochon
I had a mostly finished bottle of Soave Bolla hanging around. I killed that. It didn’t quite dull things enough so I hit the half bottle of Fume Blanc handing around in the fridge. That seems to have taken the edge off. I am reduced that that which I scorned.

Tonight I try my hand at making class beads. With my Kreskin-like ESP I sense a bunch of “playing with fire” jokes coming my way. No matter. It’s a five-week course at the local high school, one night a week. It was relatively inexpensive, and it will give me something else to do other than…

OK, this is going to be liver transplant intensive. I want to get this written down in one place while I still have half a handle on all the information they attempted to drown me in this morning. Feel free to skim/skip. First of all the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) website came highly…
Bully, for you.
There’s a good article in today’s online edition of the New York Times. Entitled “Internet Gives Teenage Bullies Weapons to Wound From Afar the article gives an overview of online cruelty. A line from the article: The new weapons in the teenage arsenal of social cruelty include stealing each others’ screen names and sending inflammatory…
Preparing to leave.
Tomorrow, 8:00 a.m. sharp I meet my friend from vet school and together we drive up to Boston. I was looking forward to this veterinary convention, but in light of the last several days I’m no longer enthusiastic about it. I feel like I’m leaving too many unresolved issues behind me. Tonight I need to…
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.
