I made a pig of myself with an Indian takeaway. I'm so full and it's been over an hour since I finished eating. Wait, maybe I'm pregnant! I'll see if I'm lactating.

Let us know if it tastes like lassi. And if so, which flavor!

It tastes like... hmmmmm.... nipple hair.

Running dry. Halfway through my last beer and have a glass' worth of wine left. Fuck.

I've noticed it's always very quiet around these parts of a Monday.( the forums I mean). I guess the "Fear" is strong in this flock. ???  :-X

Sundays are dead as well now you mention it

I lurk a lot on those days but when the head is sore I rarely post. I wish I had the same sense when I'm mouldy.

People going about their business getting attacked by thugs in the heart of our capital (or anywhere else for that matter), fucking bastards!

I left Ireland over a decade ago and come back to visit now and then. Last December I was walking around Dublin city centre and saw a visibly different Dublin City that I remember from the past. It was edgy and there was scum everywhere. I witnessed a mugging and then about half an hour later I nearly had my phone stolen in the street. Not in a rush back let me tell you.

I'm not what you'd call well travelled in any sense of the world, I can count the capitals I've been to on my fingers - but the worst by far that I've visited is Dublin. Without aiming offence at the Dubs on the board... sorry, it's a hole. Dirty, violent, overpriced, generally an unpleasant place to be. I lived there for 6 years, and genuinely wept on the bus when I left (Thin Lizzy: Dublin on the earphones passing Heuston), but I saw the place descend into shit so much in that time that I knew I'd made the right choice. And that was 20 years ago.

Has to be said though: Galway has gone to shit too, particularly in the past 3/4 years.

Worked with a guy for 7 years, a guy I've known from the age of 4/5. He emigrated to Hong Kong in September. Grand. Heard today - from the postman - that he came home last Saturday. Grand. Not a word though? Jaysus.

Bear in mind that I was maintaining his business once he went, until it wound down (March/April).

Never did I think this would be an issue for me. The nigh on impossible task of getting Taylor Swift tickets as a surprise for my daughter.
Needless to say I should have just put my finger up the cats hole as it would have been more productive.

Task for tomorrow is to drop that in to a 'serious business' work conversation.

Please do. You can swap the cat for the dog or your neighbour. As long as whatever creature you choose is in line with the lack of productivity you are trying to highlight.
