The Aran Islands can wait...
OK. I want to write a long, long (but interesting) bit o'fun about my trip to the Aran Islands that I just got back from today. BUT...I am way too tired. As I haven't blogged for a bit I thought I'd copy Alice and get a little meme action going. I'm lazy OK? And I like to copy.
1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says.
' "I feel so much less scared about the whole thing now I know you're going to be with me."' (A little longer than the one line, but people, the line in it's purity made no sense. No sense I tell you.)
2. Stretch your left arm out as far as you can...what do you touch first?
The tapestry cushions I got from Islantbul when I spent money like I actually had it.
3. What is the last thing you watched on TV?
The last 20 minutes of a game of hurley (it's Irish and I know I'm spelling it wrong). From what I gather it's a mix of British football, rugby, field hockey, basketball and the egg and spoon race. I would love to play it if they didn't keep beating each other with their sticks. They don't wear padding - ouch!
4. WITHOUT LOOKING, what time is it? 12:30 am
5. Now look at the clock, what is the actual time?
12:28 am, baby! I'm a freakin time tellin genius - plus I looked at it 15 minutes ago before I thought I'd do this. Shhh. Don't tell anyone.
6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
The blessed fan. I want to marry it, it's giving me so much goodness. Oh and the ding of the microwave. Baked potatoes coming right up!
7. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
Just got back from Stanstead airport. Actually I've been travelling since 9 this morning. It's a long time to travel.
8. What are you wearing?
Red vest, jeans and trainers and some jewellery. I've been travelling. What do you want from me? A prom dress?
9. When did you last laugh?
Yesterday at the pub with Aoife's brothers. They are fun-ny. That's younger brothers for you.
10. Seen anything weird lately?
I saw two people in a fake boat "driving" down Shop Street in Galway. It's the arts festival and they were wearing masks so that's ok. I didn't hold it against them.
11. What did you dream last night?
Something about being in Ireland. Which was true. So it musn't have been that exciting... It's a pretty good bet that it was about work though.
12. What's on the walls of the room you're in?
Green paint in two tones, book shelves with dvds and cds and books and uh...a mirror that is leaning against the wall as I've been too lazy to actually put it up.
13. What do you think of this survey?
It's OK, but I'm getting tired. Maybe I should've just wrote about the Aran Islands like I wanted to. Now it's too late. I'm sucked in!
14. What's the last film you saw?
Working Girl. It's my favorite movie, even with Melanie Griffiths tiny helium voice. At least she looks normal. What proof she gives to stay away from Plastic Surgury.
15. If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first?
I'd get a meal for me and all my friends to say thanks for being around...then I'd pay off all debts of me and the fam, buy a flat and then buy a ticket for around the world. I may even buy some more "summer" flats along the way.
16. Tell me something about you that I don't know.
I'm allergic to elephants. It's fact.
17. If you could change one thing about the world, what would you change?
I'd give the middle East a cooler climate with heavy winters. I think you fight less if it's cold. Heat makes you angry. When you're cold, you stay inside.
18. Do you like to dance? Do I? Of course! I can't believe you had to ask...
19. Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?
If I was all cheezy cheerleader, I'd say Taylor...but I don't usually consider myself that so maybe Elizabeth and Jessica for Sweet Valley Twins.
20. Boy? Hmmmm....Maybe I won't have a boy. I can't think of a name.
21. Would you ever consider living abroad? It's happening as we speak...spoooooooky!

Allergic to elephants, huh? Did you discover this when you went over to your friend's house (the one with the pet elephant of course) and started sneezing?
No - the pet elephant was on loan to the zoo and so when we went to visit, the baby elephant tried to put his trunk up my sisters dress and I started to have a sneezing fit. Amoungst the laughter of course...
