Things rarely go as planned. Ted’s court date for his car wreck is today. They said to show up in Athy at 10:30am, which is something of a bother, since we live in Cobh now. But we went up to Portarlington yesterday and spent the night at Mom & Dad’s, then got on a quite early train and came over to Athy. It has proven that here in Athy they tell everyone to arrive at 10:30am, and start with the auctioneers’ licenses and then move on to something else and…

Piano Man
Billy Joel is playing in Dublin on Saturday. Ted and I had thought we’d go, but he’s got to work. I can still almost certainly get a ticket, although not a great one.

urgency, anyone?
I seem to have not instilled much sense of urgency in my little pumpkin head regarding getting this book done by the end of the month. This is in large part, I expect, because the end of the month is an artificial deadline, although it would certainly make the *next* deadline easier. Oh well. 1500 words today. It’ll do. (The other problem is this chapter has a lot of description in it, which is hard, so I’m not exactly approaching it with enthusiasm. Just gotta keep chugging through it. Sigh.)…
