Workin' Weekend
Work Work Work, that was the theme of this weekend (well, at least Saturday and Sunday.) The usual working things applied, but I'm really having a great time getting to know my employees. I've learned to say a few words in Polish, mainly cuss words, and I still don't know a word of Chinese, but that's allright. My Pakistani friend has taught me a few words of muslim prayer, and he's also teaching me some Pakistani songs as well. This in between making millions of milkshakes and serving burgers with Johnny Cash,Bob Dillan, and the Beach Boys in the background. Time flies quickly at work, so no complaints.
I'm also continuing my pub tour of Galway. After work I find a random pub and go in for a pint just to check it out. Last night I went to the pub right across from Eddies to watch the Ireland Vs. Israel football match. They tied the match, but Ireland was ahead for most of it.
What's been interesting is the Easter Holiday, which is today. In Ireland they close almost everything for Good Friday, but everything is up and running on Easter.
So I have an open week approaching with work on Saturday and Sunday and I have two options for trips: Either up to Northern Ireland and County Down, or to the Aran Islands for a couple of days. Both would be fun, but the Northern Ireland trip is much more pricey (they're on the pound in N.I., which is no fun.) I'll keep you posted as to what happens there. Oooh, and on Thursday I get to dress up as Tony the Tiger, so that will be entertaining I'm sure. I'll be sure to bring the camera for that one.
Anyway, I'm off to see if the Front Door really does serve the best pint in Galway. Hope all is well with all of you, and I wish you a happy Easter.
Cheers,
-Nate
