today, before starting another day with our new system at work, i got to chat to anghold (hence the title). good times. there was talk of indian food, poker playing and some fun puns...like there are any other kind worth mentioning. i was happy to be reminded of things that i have to look forward to when i get back to canada... cause sometimes i wonder if it's the right choice. let's face it, there are no guarantees, and the grass always looks greener. well, maybe in this case it just looks like a different shade of green.
i feel like i'm always trying to catch up on my blog lately. for a change, i'm not going to apologise for not being a good blogger. instead i will talk about things that are fun and coming up.
for example:
*next week is the dave mathews concert in dublin
*we are going to conor and sinead's in celbridge on friday. saturday we will watch the rugby game between ireland and england (from what i hear, it's an historical match, because they have never played against each other at Croke Park. and in the 20's a big English tank came in and shot some Irish people in the middle of an all ireland game there so there's a lot of tension there).
*it's almost paddy's day, so we're going to have a bit of a fête here, and go into town and watch the parade, drink green beer, etc.
*it's also almost, but not as almost, gerry's birthday. so as well as the party action for that event, i've got to start thinking presents!!
*oh! and i've started driving lessons. it can take months to get an appointment for your driving test here, but because i got a letter from work, i may be able to get one sooner. this means i need some lessons and practice... there are some crazy things on the test here, like reversing around a corner (which i don't think is safe, and probably shouldn't be encouraged).
