My local newspaper had an article about someone in the court pages and there was a garda called Pat McGee. I know I'm a bit of a simpleton but I think that's hilarious. Best name ever.

Just behind Ulick Magee :pac:

There was a typo on a comment on the journal.ie. I really wanted to laugh out loud but I chuckled away at it possibly looking like a lunatic. This is it.

Before I left for work my toddler son was up.

He watches this cartoon called Sarah and Duck and during the theme tune they sing Sarah and Duck and then the duck quacks, so I get a kick out of walking around the house saying Sarah and Duck, and then he goes quack!

A rasher sandwich with the rashers cooked so the rind has just gone crispy but the meat is not dry.

I'm happy right now.

A really really good lentil dhal soup form the Natural Foods Bakery for lunch - super deliciousness!

Getting a pat on the back in work for being a hero.

I'm going with the kids to pick a new rescue kitty this weekend

The little snuffly noises my cat makes in her sleep

I posted on the TA thread about a man who was flashing his lights at me and shaking his fist because I wouldn't break the speed limit for him. Well he ended up getting stuck behind a lorry after he got by me. He had to drive for about 20km behind this lorry driving really slowly. I felt like doing a happy dance that he got stuck!!!

I neighbour just came to the door with a cheque for €150 for me, telling me I'd gotten 3 numbers in the parish Lotto. (He sold the ticket to me). Ta very much!

If I believed in karma, I'd say it was because I sold an Electric Picnic ticket this morning very cheaply. But I don't believe in that stuff. I won because I randomly picked 3 out of 4 numbers correctly.

Jaysus you must have some low opinion of me

Happy that the weekend is in sight!

This morning. Gorgeous. Fresh autumnal weather on the way. Leaves will be falling shortly. Just standing outside the front door breathing it in before I walk to the car (with the little one happily waddling ahead of me dragging her mála scoile behind her on the way to crèche). It's great to be alive and healthy. These are the days. They really are.

These are the days of the endless summer
These are the days, the time is now
There is no past, there's only future
There's only here, there's only now...

When someone goes all out to try and prove you wrong by being hurtful, snide and insulting. But you know that you are right. The inevitable confirmation that were in fact right always brings elation.

Love when this happens!

Kit-Kats and tea.

Tea, generally.

Burial.

Seeing a young child holding a spoon far too big for them as they focus like a rocket scientist on eating a yoghurt.

Getting breakfast this morning in my local restaurant .. just barely ahead of a group of 5 people together....the types who want to savor the moments at the food counter and debate with one another about what to get.

Are I Mad

It's my sons 8th birthday today, and his sister offered to give him breakfast in bed this morning:D:D:D

There are road works going on on our road, it's the same men who do all the local work, as they are out in all weathers I always give a big smile and wave as I am passing. Yesterday I had the window down and as I was passing one of the men gave me a big cheer and "how're you doin". It's still making me smile today.:D

Went to a well know establishment in Dublin city centre last week. This place sends me monthly hardcopy events brochure. Must be a juicy client for An Post.
So I ordered a got a pint at the bar. I didn't pay then. I sat down beside two fairly well oiled goons on the wine. One stared at me for a second in typical cranky Irish fashion. At this point I noticed that all Baristas were very busy. I wait for 5 minutes didn't touch my pint of Guinness. In all honesty Iwas going to be waiting an eternity for ordering and then getting food.
........crash.......one of the aforementioned goons wineglasses had fallen off the table and onto the floor in smithereens. Some bits under my table.
...my ticket outta this joint. Reported clusterfvck accident to staff...paid for my pint which I bolted down and left.
I'll now treat post from this venue as junk mail.

Hmmm only interesting if:

One of the "goons" followed the wine glass to the deck.

You swallowed the pint rapido

Left the gaff without paying

Fingered one of the baristas whilst complaining.

Why did you need an excuse to leave?! Why bolt down your pint?! Why did any of this make you happy?!

All of this and more will be answered in season 2. Tune in on September 31st, exclusively on HBO.

New stationary makes me happier than it should. A new notebook makes me downright giddy.

The Celebrity Carpool clip with Britney Spears. I felt so sorry for her when she was having her breakdown a few years ago...but she seems to be in great form these days.
