I returned The Notebook to Travelling Languages<\/a> yesterday after work and used the opportunity to ask about our trip to Connemara this weekend. I\u2019m really looking forward to it but I guess everyone knows that by now. I have also made plans for the weekends in June. Nothing\u2019s written in stone but I want to go to Howth and Greystones\/Bray because the views are supposed to be great and I can hop on to the DART for both so it\u2019s not going to be too expensive.<\/p>\n

So I was telling you about buying my hiking boots. Naturally, you have to break them in before they get comfortable. Well, I am trying to do that since yesterday and seeing as I only have today and tomorrow to kind of soften the leather a bit, I actually don\u2019t believe I will achieve much until I need them this weekend. However, I had a nice long walk yesterday because the bus that was supposed to be at the station in \u201c2 minutes\u201d finally arrived after about 30 minutes of waiting for \u201c2 minutes\u201d.
\nOf course, it didn\u2019t stop to let anybody on because it was full. Now, the good thing about the real time information of the Dublin Bus is that\u2026 ummm\u2026 it is that\u2026 phew\u2026 umm\u2026 okay, there is actually zero, zip, nada, zilch\u2026 *taking a breath* \u2026bupkis, diddily squat, nothing good about this crappy display. Those things are lying through their LEDs and they are devoid of any emotion so they can\u2019t even feel bad or good about it. They are lying and they just don\u2019t care!<\/p>\n

So after waiting roughly another 10 minutes only to have the second bus pass me by without stopping either, I decided to eff this ess and walk home.
\nThis is the route I took: https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/g2sqR<\/a><\/p>\n

It turned out to be a nice \u201cwalkout\u201d, my heart racing not only from the exertion but also from the rage boiling inside me. That rage ebbed off while the exhaustion grew and after another hour, I arrived home to three Spanish girls trying to cook what I assumed was to be an omelet. Ann was watching them as they were following the recipe of one of the girls\u2019 grandmother. Now, it was actually only potatoes and eggs in the pan but I was told that it\u2019s \u201cnot easy\u201d. I settled with expressing my agreement and underlining that with the widely known fact that the fewer ingredients a dish has, the harder it is to prepare\u2026 just think of preparing tea \u2013 that\u2019s a science in itself. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

This morning it dawned on me that I had left my hoodies at work and since I didn\u2019t want to wear my coat, I came to work wearing my leather jacket. I \u2665 my leather jacket! It will come in handy today because the Dublin Staff Relay is happening after work and it is supposed to rain in the afternoon and while I hope that our tent will be enough to protect us from the downpour, it sure is nice to have an extra layer of protection. But let\u2019s just hope for the best!<\/p>\n

Cheers,
\nAngelo<\/p>\n

Edit: I just wanted to check the weather again and it first showed me the forecast for Germany. You guys have 31\u00b0C while I have 13\u00b0C and rain. Now, I knew what I was getting into but there is no reason I shouldn’t be able to be even just a little disappointed right now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
