Thank you, please take your ticket and your change.
I wonder did the woman who says that every time plan on being the voice of the Luas ticket machine? Like when she went to her guidence counseller did they advise her to aim for the sky and plan to be the voice of the future? The voice that would greet people first thing in the morning or last thing at night? Much like the deep voiced man at the cinema, he who talks over trailers? Every time I hear his voice I crave popcorn. I often wonder what these people look like? For example, when this woman has a meal out does she say Thank you for the lovely meal,please take my money and tip? In that same voice? I sometimes try and picture her inside the machine, scrunched up with a blanket and a cup of coffee. I wonder does she sometimes want to go F OFF, I’m hungover or I’m PMTING, please go away. Just something different, it would be so funny to see people’s faces if that happened. I’m an early morning person as you can guess and this is the time of thing that amuses me of a morning when I am too lazy to walk to the bus and decided to take the Luas. I am leaning more and more towards getting a bike though. The only thing putting
me off is the lunatic Dublin drivers. I swear they scare me. I shall give it more thought.
I was out sick during the week with tonsilitis. Its as constant as the weather , every year without fail. Lots of rest, some quality time on the couch as Mammy2 was off this week as well. Its been a while since there were any episodes so we can’t really complain and it hasn’t hit her too bad. She gets out of bed most days and has left the apartment a few times. I caught up with the mate J last night as I hadn’t seen her in ages and was looking forward to catching up on all the news..We headed to the market bar which was hopping and then onto Pantibar when her gf joined us. I was tired so I didn’t stay out too long and was very sensible heading home at 10. I am trying to persuade her to return to training, training is always more fun when you can beat your friend! I can’t wait for today to be over..and then I am hols for the next week and a bit. I have made no plans whatsoever! A bit of work and lots of relaxing. I have some things I’ve been putting off doing so hopefully I’ll get around to doing them.
Its going to be the first paddies day where Mammy2 has to work. We usually go to the parade and then head to find some orisih music. I love the day, if you ignore the teenagers drunk in Temple Bar by 11. That’s the sad part, the need to go and get rat-faced cause its Paddies day. That was what St Patrick was all about after all. I shall see what my plans are, I’m trying to persuade the kid to come over and have a sister’s night with me on the Sunday, I have a few horror movies to watch. She has to get back to me. Hectic social diary that she has and all that. She’s chuffed at the mo as Snakebite are looking for apprentice tatoo artists and so she’s heading there today with her portfolio. I really hope she gets it. It would be perfect for her. She’s been going on about it for so long now, it would be great. Although the downside is she might have to move back in with us for a while. We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. Not that we don’t want her back living with us, it is her room and her home, but I guess we’re just used to the 2 of us now.
