Party

Monday, April 4th, 2005

Oh yeah…I forgot to mention my going away party.
Friday March 25th, 2005 found us at Lucky Jacks a great Lower East side bar owned by a trio of awesome people. Big thanks to Meghan, Diarmuid and Declan for hosting!
Thanks also to all who attended! What wonderful people I have the pleasure of knowing. You all made the night better then I could have ever hoped for: with smiley faces, kind words and many a hug. I was truly flattered by the turnout and so happy to spend a night looking at a room full of people I love to know. You guys rock!
A “Welcome Home” party was suggested by more then a few people, and any excuse for a party is a good one. So perhaps we´ll all gather again in November…looking forward to seeing everyone again…

The end of the daily grind

Monday, March 21st, 2005

I’ve started my last week of work! It should be pretty easy because the girl I’m training knows most of the stuff already and all I have to do is sit back and answer any questions that come up.

I’ve also got a million errands to run! All sorts of things keep coming to mind: bills to change into my roommate’s name, prescriptions to fill, entry Visa photos to take…nothing I can’t handle, just time consuming. Small price to pay, really.

My goodness! Only 4 more full days! Which also means 4 more days till my going away party! Can’t wait! (Gosh, I’m exclaimation point happy!!! 😉 ) And only 10 days till I’m on a plane!

Nothing truly important to write…just getting in the habit of blogging. Guess we can call this my boring post…

Where are you going?

Tuesday, February 8th, 2005
Well, since you asked... Here's the general idea...general. I put this map together in a few minutes, so its not perfect...some cities are floating in vaguely the wrong spot. I'm also buying tickets as I go, so this could ... [Continue reading this entry]

Flag

Monday, February 7th, 2005
I've decided I need a flag. A flag of my very own! Silly? Yes, perhaps a little...but then again, why not?! I'm known for a fair bit of silliness. Also, I'm thinking that if I have my own ... [Continue reading this entry]

Introducing…

Thursday, February 3rd, 2005
Hello and welcome. If you've found your way here then you most likely know me and have heard me, over the past six months, speak endlessly about venturing off into the great big world of ours...circumnavigating it even! Well, the time ... [Continue reading this entry]
