Hi everyone. I haven't posted in awhile. I figured you were all missing me desperately. :o) THIS ISN"T ART FOR ARTS SAKE, THIS IS ART FOR FUCKS SAKE! I love that quote. Gavin Friday said that back in the day when he was an angry youth from the northside of Dublin. I must say that I have gotten very into the Virgin Prunes of late though. Speaking of Ireland (for a change :o), i found a lovely web site the other day. it is a gaelic translation page. It gives various menus; ie: saying, greetings, colours, etc. Then there are audio files of this man saying everything, so as to get the pronunciation right. It also has a list of places where you can get information on places in your area to take courses in gaelic. I am so tempted to enroll, i am also horrified. there just seems to be no sense of phonetics there. it scares me. I should be more like Dirty vicar, he is always taking classes on how to speak extremely intimidating languages. I could easily spend 6 or 7 hours at this web site though. that scares me about myself. :O) DRESSED UP LIKE A CAR CRASH, YOUR WHEELS ARE TURNING BUT YOU'RE UPSIDE DOWN it snowed here this week. i was praying for so much snow that i wouldn't have to work. we didn't get so much snow that i didn't have to work. we did, however, get enough to require a snow day for the eldest of my charges. zoiks! it was great though. we spent a couple of hours playing in the snow. i hadn't done that in aaaaages. kevin from our beloved sinister told me about a sledding excursion he and his croanies went on a few weeks back. i'm so jealous. sledding rules! :o) A PESSIMIST IS ONE WHO FEELS BAD WHEN HE FEELS GOOD FOR FEAR HE'LL FEEL WORSE WHEN HE FEELS BETTER did you know that there used to be celery flavoured jell-o? there was indeed. coffee flavoured too. personally, i find this a disgusting thought, but who am i? I AM WHO I AM WHO I AM. WELL, WHO AM I? i was supposed to start school this weekend. my school decided to restructure the academic programme, so that has been postponed. of course they had to do this NOW, just as I was getting all excited about starting classes again. I AM NOT AN AARDVARK! I AM A FURRY BLUE MONSTER, AND PROUD TO BE ONE!! so st. patrick's day is approaching. it falls on a monday this year, that doesn't really work for my schedule. i usually have a big party for SPD. this year i think a group of friends and I are going to go to this place called Gaelic Park. Apparently all of the hip Irish Chicagoans go there. We'll see about that. I sort of have a feeling it is going to be a crowd of people who have names such as "Mulcahy" or "Fitzgerald" who hail from Indiana or some such place. That's not what I want. I want real live Irish people. I suppose I would settle for some Brits or Scots, though I can't imagine they would want to hang round Gaelic park on SPD. hmm? I wonder. SHE BLINDED ME WITH SCIENCE so the eldest of my charges has gotten bored with the art projects that we have always done. the trouble being, the ones a scoach more complicated are things that i would have to do the majority of. i found a solution. we have started doing science experiments. i always call her Newton now, she doesn't really get it. she is very into science though. i think her parents are quite impressed that i have been planning such sophisticated things though. woo hoo! onto somethings i have learned from my new favourite web site: Se�n is aimn dom.....this would be "My name is Sean" this would be helpful were my name actually Sean....Now I am just confused. Am I to lie whilst introducing myself in Gaelic? P�g mo th�in! .....kiss my ass! not very friendly, but could serve to be very helful! so to catch you up on things as they stand now... today is D� hAoine. it is an Geimhreadh i have a d� dearth�irs and a c�ig deirfi�irs have a lovely weekend everyone. Go n-ithe an cat th� is go n-ithe an diabhal an cat ~stine...erm, i mean sean. :o) __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
