Flying

I just had the bejaysus scared out of me.
I turned on the light in the bathroom, it arced, blew, and smoked.
It gave me a bit of a fright.
Just like the bill I got from my sham of a now ex lawyer for 600 euros, for meeting him twice and for him engaging with the other party. Okay to be precise it's 598 taxes included. Cheeky bugger.
I don't have 600 euros so it will have to wait.
Tomorrow I fly to Dublin. My folks are having a party. I hadn't understood at all what the hell was going on so I am going on my own. Actually it's a mother of hooleys in a hotel. My folks are both 80 and feel like celebrating.
I had a funny thought today. I don't know if this is true but try it out. Fear. If you fear something enough you will make it happen. So don't bother being afraid. Just grit your teeth and go for it.



So at least I have this wonderful smile to come back to :-)


I think I might get used to adding some images here and brighten the place up!

Ho hum.......update: I just found out it's going to be dry in Dublin this weekend, waaaaaay, and 8-12 degrees centigrade....nooooooo waaaaaaaaaaaay....! This morning it was 21C at 9am in Cap D'ail...brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

So true what you say about fear. It's like a demon that you feed with frayed nerves that makes you stutter at interviews and shake during piano exams. I really wish I knew how to make it fly away because it haunts me all the bloody time.

Hey am lookin' forward to the pictures! This lady does have a mighty pretty smile :)
