There's your first on the way to 2k. ��
I woke up late and my car was clamped. This has been a miserable Monday as a result. GRR!
After 4 years 9 months on the road commuting from Cork to Antwerp, encompassing over 325 flights at a total cost of approx €27,000 ( flights alone ) - today is the beginning of my final week abroad.
Some people don't like what our country has become - but on Thursday evening if soemone tells me that I'll never be able to leave it again - it wouldn't bother me a whole lot.
I see people on the flight to amsterdam every week - like a brotherhood of extreme commuters who put thier lives on hold to either further thier careers or simply put food on the table. I'll miss the craic a little but after all this time, not much.
The travel, the strain, the weekly goodbyes to the wife and kids are the real human stories of yet another manifestation of this recession that the world seems to ignore. For now, and hopefully, the foreseeable future that is in the past for myself.
Overall feeling is huge relief. Nothing else really. It will sink in, in a few weeks I think.
First exam in almost 3 years went about as badly as could be expected. And yet still not badly enough that I miss my sh*ty job even a little bit.
Well, I woke up to find that my neighbours dog had got into my bin last night outside the back door and there was frozen rubbish, and frozen remnants of food all over the place. Took a lot of boiling water, bleach and scrubbing to get most of it off.
I didn't even get a sorry.
