Really didn't do much today, this SUNDAY....
It was not a SUN day. More like rainy, damp, cold, unconfortable day. Guess Sun rolls of the tounge better thought? Thought about Black Swan alot today. I don;t know really what I did, the day passed fairly quickly. Well, Lindas parents were down so I slept in as much as I could without getting a headache. I did some streching and I felt great afterwards. I want to be able to throw proper kicks at karate tomorrow, and I realised that I need to strech slowly for around 15 mins before I can move like the other in the class, who are basically, younger than me. Yep, I love and will keep with my karate.
Have something to say? Please please email me at donalod@gmail.com and let me know what you think...

Saturday....
Lets start my day backwards...
Finally went to bed...
Drove home from the cinema...
Went to see Black Swan. It was absolutely brilliant brilliant but I had to remind myself that it was going to be over soon a few time through it, such was my level of freaked out about it!
Drove to cinema, happy, expecting a "nice" film!
Had a birthday party for Lucy - she was 2 today! Family was at it, she didn't really know what was happening!
Put up campaign posters up for Trevor (vote Trevor!)
Got up, day was raining, figured we would not be putting up any posters, afterall, it was raining and the weather sucked alot.
Woke up - there is a good day ahead of me 8)

Friday!
No crunchies :( Still though I had a good day, when Sophie came out from school we went into Galway and went food shopping and Sophie bought a Hello Kitty radio. It is so cute. The fact that Sophie got her own radio with a CD player is cute btw not the radio all that much. But she was so happy switching on the radio and finding out what all the buttons did... do you remember that? Do you remember being young?

yippee... I made Caca Brown and it was actually nice... it was kinda crumbly... well not crumbly, but when you were cutting it with the knife like little pieces could fall easily off the crust. So structurally it could have been sounder, but it tasted yum and the consistancy was nice... phew!
We ran out of oil last night... today we were plundged into the cold like this guy.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3Isa6Ew9Og&NR=1 (crap video sorry - i tried to get one that would make my point but all the videos on youtube were of people falling a foot deep into ice)
Of course we ordered oil...got oil same day! Now thats service.

Well really, Linda wasn't feeling so good so I did not do a whole lot more than keeping an eye on things and people in the morning and then one of Sophies little friends came home after school and they hung out together. It is so funny, Sophie has a radio now with a CD player in her room and she blasts out music like there is no tomorrow. I remember we used to do that too, but of course, with tapes.
I wonder how many people do not know what tapes are now days? How many people, when you think about it, have loads of music, either bought off iTunes, or downloaded illegally, and who never actually bought an actual physical media to play that music off, like a CD, or a cassatte tape, or a vinal! Funny when you think about. In a way it makes you think that some day kids might grow up and wonder what we talk about when we mention "petrol" or "diesel" for cars instead of the battery powered electric car they are used to, or what we talk about when we mention reading the "paper". Or a CRT television, that is one of the TVs with the big huge back on it. Will all TV's be 3D? In fact, will we even have TVs, will we have a digital implant where we see the TV project directly into our retina? I'm waiting for hologram television or holodecks like on Startrek!
There are many many crap things in my life that I hope my kids or any other kids will have to experience and I hope the never will. But I also hope they do experience some of the kind of things we were able to do as kids, I remember building forts back at the lake in Carraroe, being carefree and walking out the door and being uncontactable (with no mobile phone), and a day when computer equated directly to fun - not the pornhub and bane of social peer pressure that it is today.
Opps, listen to me going on like an old man (like the old man that I am really I guess). Some things never change!

Ooooo what a social Tuesday I had. I did some work on computers then around 4 Sheila and her gang came around and when they left PJ came and I play reach for 3 hours!
Also, I made Caca Brown. It only turned out 50% as good as thought it would be... my sister makes it to and she has it down to an art form so i have to learn it directly off her I think.

Monday...
It was cool going back to Karate class again. I wore my white suit. One of the kids laughed at me because I was only wearing my white belt and he informed me that he had an orange suit. Note to self, get orange belt asap. But that was it really for the day, Linda was working alot and I was taking care of Lucy. Sophie had a good day, I think, it is really hard to get any actual real answer from her about anything... well, that is not true. But she definately is going through a time of quickly coming up with - I will not say a lie - but definately an "alternative truth" about alot of situations. But it is all part of growing up, as kids you only really learn that lying is bad when you actually lie, get busted for it, and have to face the concequenses of it.
Hasta.
