The plan was to take an early train up to Dublin, visit my family for a few hours, then go to the Meat Loaf concert, head back to my family’s place to sleep, and to take an early train back to Cork in order to view an apartment before Ted had to go to work. You may guess from how I structured that, that things did not go according to plan. Cork City held a marathon Monday morning. The first one in twenty-five years, apparently. The entire city centre was…

This book is like, what’s it called when you cut something in half and then again and again but it’s infinite because you can always cut it in half again? That’s what reaching the end of this book is like. Visible, yet infinitely far away. I need to make dinner (and I really want to just fry eggs and call it good, but there’s chicken in the fridge and it’d be stupid to let it go to waste) and finish this *damned* chapter, and then probably sit there and try…

And my TV show is on in 10 minutes, so I don’t have time to get those revisions done before it. Argh! Hm. It’s a two part show. Maybe I’ll go back to work between parts 1 and 2 so that I…

Thank you, everybody, for the birthday wishes. :) It was a nice birthday. I got no work done worth mentioning, Ted made a very yummy dinner, and we watched four episodes of season 5 Alias and ate Haagen Dazs ice cream. :) Now I’m stuck at this computer because I have a 9 pound broken-footed cat on my lap and I’m pinned down by his mighty weight and cuteness. He’s doing just fine. Gimping around like a champion. Ah, he’s moved, which means I pretty much have to go to…
