and the boy is up in northern Ireland this weekend for stephen's birthday. i wanted to go but unfortunately have to work... and i don't think i really want to know what's happening up there anyway, so it's probably best i didn't go. plus it's bad form to ask for days off 4 days before a 3 week vacation. so i am alone in the apartment this weekend just cleaning and anticipating company on thursday.

what else is going on over here? not a hell of a lot. i just thought i'd share my joy and excitement over mom and myrna's arrival on thursday. i'll try to update mid-visit to give everyone a progress report.

happy cinqo de mayo everyone! (and Kentucky Derby day)

ps. why does it automatically default to "United States Derby"?? that's strange. why can't i say K-e-n-t-u-c-k-y??

Yeah, what's up with that? You seem to be good at finding wacky things that are happening to the site. Hang on a second and I'll get your Derby back to the right place!

Ok: Kentucky Derby... Working? Cool. I'll fix up your entry for you. Good catch!

Hey Britt...the Kentucky Derby was rad!! I told you a while ago to bet Street Sense, something tells me you didn't but it gives me a great opportunity to say i told you so. It just so happens Street Sense is an Irish bred horse...yes. So yeah, i haven't said hi for a long time..hi! I still check your blog out and its so cool you have had such a good time in Eire. I have just heard that one of my sisters friends plays in a band based out of Dublin and that they were opening for Groove Armada lately or something, i will send you a message via facebook or something if i find out when/where they are playing next, might be worth seeing....ok bye!
