New home, goodbye to Eoin, and a crazy rainy Sunday

The first order of business is that I have moved into a new apartment. I'm now living with Miss Julie (also referred to on this blog as "only friend" and "the Irish girl"). The new place is quite nice, but what most excites me is that I now have full access to a kitchen. Unfortunately, we don't have internet, so my blog posts will be less frequent and my responses to e-mails even slower.

I've had some requests for the new address, but I've forgotten from who. Please e-mail me if you want it.

(Please note: this picture was taken when it was sunny and wonderful. Now, in the mornings it is so foggy that you can't see to the ocean. Its basically Seattle winter weather.... and its too sad to talk about, so I'll stop... for now.)


The second order of business is that Mr. Eoin, Julie's travel companion, left this morning to head back to Ireland. We will miss him dearly.

In honor of Eoin and insatiable appetite for learning, life, and all things edible:



Lastly, yesterday was really rainy and gross. By 3:00 pm I had already grocery shopped, talk to Mom and Dad, cleaned the bathroom, baked apple bread and I was bored out of my mind. Julie and Eoin were in the same state. After about a half hour of talking about the feasibility of folding a piece of paper until it reaches the sun (don't ask), we decided that we needed something else to do. Julie came up with the wonderful idea of making clothing from the phone book (only the white pages, she insisted), which resulted in the creation of "Once upon a Sunday," an unprecedented work of artistic mastery. Follow the link below and click through the sideshow with the captions. You will be amazed... and you might even shed a tear... of pity.

Once Upon a Sunday

Besos,
