We spent the better part of the day going out to Bray to have a look around. It’s very pretty indeed, but I think the commute might be a little long to do on a daily basis. I’m not quite sure why I think this, because my commute from San Francisco to Mountain View was as long on the express train, and longer on the regular train, but then, it was only about 3 minutes walk from the train station to my work, and I was driven to and from…
Neil Gaiman
Well, since I’m in Dublin and, as Rob pointed out, there’s no point in having an adventure if you’re not going to do adventuresome things, I called up to see if there were any tickets left for the Neil Gaiman interview next Tuesday. There weren’t, of course, but I got myself put on a waitlist just in case, and if space comes open I’ll go listen to Neil’s interview, not so much because I’m a particular fan of his writing so much as I like him as a person quite…

Marith filked this little song for me: Tell my Kit when I go home The boys won’t get the moving done They packed the cats and they lost the phone But that’s all right till we get home She is famous, she is witty She is the Kit of Dublin city She is writing, one-two-three Please won’t you sign this book for me? *tired giggles* Dinner with Trent last night was a lot of fun, though traffic monstrosities conspired to keep him away for two hours after we’d planned to…
