Hurrah, 4th July

Hurrah, hurrah it's the day after Independance day. Twas enjoyable enough fun. We had a barbeque next door and everyone from work came over. That finished up early enough and a few of us went back to a house and just drank and watched a movie (Long Hot Wet American Summer, not as porny as it sounds but very weird and pretty funny). We then went and looked at the fireworks which were okay but we were so far away that it took ten seconds for the bang to reach us, someone even asked me "Do you have fire-works in Ireland?" Anyhow that was grand fun.

Anyhow i also went and used my credit card for the first time and made several purchases. I got me some new threads, a new memory stick to replace Joans shitty one and a spanking 1Gb MP3 player. Now i just have to figure out how to repay it from over here, do i have 30 days from 1st purchase or is it the end of every month it has to be cleared, I think i will just lodge my 673 euros into the credit account and let that be it.

I was reading Liam's blog and he was just on about how Blog's seem to be inherently self-absorbed, well that aint alway a bad thing. I am over here and while i am interested in Joan's opinion on the Burma situation and Liam's opinion on the Garda Bill i am far far more interested in little things like what ye did today and who ye did them with. I can hear people spout about politcs anywhere but hearing Clonlara stories is a little harder to do.

So continuing my steam of inanities i am just back from War of the Worlds, i dont know if ye peasants have it over there yet but it was okay. It was different from most movies in its kind in that Tom Cruise was not the hero that tries saves the world and gets the fair maiden but instead is just one of the dirty refugees that you see running screaming for their lives. Plus he is small, yes for once true-to-life nearly every male and several females stand taller than the diminuative fella. I dont like him.

I may have mentioned before that i am suffering a bit from mosquitoes. That has not changed and seems to have gotten worse. While i do not get bitten as mush as other people, when i do my body way over reacts. All these Mainers have grown up getten bitten my mosquitoes so they just ignore them now but i get huge swollen red bubonics where i get bitten. I am constantly itching like crazy and i was up til 2 last night slowly going mad. I am slathering creams left right and centre and i took a few ttablets tonight that not only are supposed to stop the itch but make you sleep so you dont make it worse, that is going to be my excuse for any spelling mistakes in this one. Worst thing is that there is nothing i can do until my body stops reactin so bad, its impossible to avoid being bitten over here.

On that note i will sign off, i can feel the narcotics already, luckily tomorrow is my Friday as i have the next two days off. Happiness is.
