So school has been pretty hectic, post-Berlin. Olga and I've been going to the hotel earlier so I can bring my laptop and get work done/use the internet. I'm doing a research project I have to present on Tuesday for Martina that I've been needing the world wide web for. Chris started working at Monks as of Wednesday but Robbie had to get his appendix out the other day so he is still working at the Hotel until Robbie gets back. Jonnie started working at Monk's as well. Lot's of fun nights out with Olga, Chris, Curnán, & Ciunas. Sometimes Stu and Barry as well. Ciunas is hilarious, rather hard for me to explain his personality, but we'll say he isn't the quietest person ever and Ciunas is the Irish word for silence/quiet. Haha. Chris told me a story about how when they were in primary school and the teacher would should "Ciunas!" at the class, he'd say "He's not here!" or "Be Ciunas!" "I can't, he's over there." Haha. Stu is british, and also hilarious. The one night was really fun because we all sat around at Chris's house and played instruments together. I had a shakey thing with symbols haha, but there were wooden drums and a violin and tin flutes and acoustic guitars and a xylophone i think. It was great craic. I had a really good crit the other day, I'll have to take a photo of the drawing I did for it. There was a James Brown impersonator one night at the hotel for the owner's wife's birthday party. that was pretty cool. I'm going to put up some photos now so you know who I have been talking about.
p.s. i love mayo. it is so good. especially on chips and curly fries. mmmmm.

I HATE this fricken computer with the missing N key that I must go back and hit after every sentance or else the words will look like this: Did I metio I have embarked o aother adveture with may of my old freids from the first ovel ad some ew oes as well. Arghhhhhhhhhhh
But I digress. My ew.... Damn! My new character is a post 9/11 border patrol agent working the Maine/ canada border. The thing is he has been reassigen from the Texas border where he was bron and raised. This Tex/Mex must now deal with the Maine people, food, music, winter, bugs etc. Now What I need is a real life texmex person to chat with. To lear about the culture. Any ideas??????????????
