Lalala
Things here are trucking along – I’m almost done with work for the week. Steph wants to switch shifts this week, so I was thinking of heading up north – but that is a lot of planning, very quickly, and I’m a bit stressed at the moment – so I might just take it easy the next couple of days – finish up all of my errands, and go see the North in February (maybe the forecast won’t be heavy rain then as well). I bought new shoes today, as my boots are just wrecked – I’ll see if they get me through the shift well tonight. Got about 26/28 in tips the last 2 nights (Sunday was mad busy – ooh! but they put American football at the end of the night – the patriots. I don’t even like football and it kind of made me giddy). Otherwise things are going pretty well at the bar. I like almost everyone there (except the new guy – but I try to avoid him) and Orla and I might go out sometime. Hmm – any one want to write in quickly on their thoughts for the North? I’m leaning towards staying at the moment – I could actually organize my closet and ship my xmas gifties… hmmm…

Who’s Orla?
North? As in, “the troubles”? I say, stay home. Meanwhile, your bro has been confirmed for Leeds….so he and I will be scrambling to get everything done…Love you! Mama
Jessica! Glad to hear things are going well thus far! Am enjoying your blogs…almost like I’m not in stupid nyc, still. well, not quite — but it’s still nice to know your are enjoying your post SIPA life!
Congrats to Ross!
I would say that you should take every opportunity to travel AFTER this one. It sounds like you really need to regroup a little bit and that it might help future travel plans just to settle down and think ahead a bit. Yes?
Orla is one of the floor staff girls. (Her, Sara, and a brazilian, whose name I am not good at pronouncing). The other bartenders are Qiao, John O’Brien (manager), John Gallagher (senior barman), Dermot, Luke (son and father), Stephanie, Vita (latvian), and the new guy Gavin (whom I keep calling Devon). Plus day people whom I never work with.
I didn’t get tonight off, so I am not in the north. But I do plan on going to Belfast in February – the black cab tour is supposed to be amazing…
Sue – sorry to hear stuff in NYC is stupid – what are you up to?
