Here I thought the cage was supposed to be empty.
I woke up this morning and there was a small finch-like bird fluttering around the house. Now I hate netspeak and all the but surprisingly I could practically feel the thought bubble burst above my head.
“WTF?”
It took me a clean hour to convince the little thing the door was open… I imagine it had probably fluttered into the glass desperately a number of times already. I just want to know when it got in… it was either when Mike left for work this morning or had been in overnight!
I’m booking my ticket to France for tomorrow because the agency just called because they forgot to mention I have orientation for this new job on Thursday. Gee, what a bloody thing to forget. Anyways, I’m still going to France and trying to come up with somewhere else to go over easter. Maybe Edinburgh. As much as I wanted to throw the phone at a wall I think I was very mature about having to completely shift my trip due to a bit of a stupid mistake on their part. And maybe I’ll get to see another new place (or old place that I love) thanks to this largely unplanned break in the trip. Maybe even somewhere closer like Oxford or something. I’ll be paid for the orientation, so I can’t complain too much.
Uhm, in other news, I talked on the phone to Terri last night, and it was pretty much awesome. I’ll probably call Ange or Stacey tonight, because I’m not racking up roaming charges on my phone by calling people from France. Sorry guys, you aren’t worth that much to me after all! Bahahahahahahahah~~! I kid, I kid, but roaming charges means I cannot afford to bring anyone British Sweets, so choose your battles wisely.
Other then that– anyone who has any suggestions as to where to go for Easter send me a Comment… and don’t say Isle of Wight, I hear the place is booked solid, the whole island, during Easter.

Spoke to Marilyn — she and Michael are away at Easter, but she has invited you to spend the weekend of April 4/5/6 with her. She will pick you up at the airport on Friday night and show you around Dublin and surrounds for the weekend. That is actually a time when RYANair is very cheap to Dublin if you book now! I know you have her contact info so be sure and get in touch via e-mail to give her the details of your flight, etc.
Hope the City of Lights is living up to expectations…
Love and kisses to you, sweetie

The bird is clearly a spy.
And wow, France! That sounds exciting! I hope you visit the Eiffel tower, because I hear it’s really pretty, especially at night. I have no idea where you should go for Easter, but I assure you if I come up with something I’ll bother you with it!
