Brrrr




Today is a very cold day in Ireland. Here in Cork this evening it is -1 degrees Celsius, and it has been windy and snowing all day. I know you Canadians are guffawing and saying "pshaw" at my lame complaints, but listen. I am Canadian. I am cold here today. Cold. Red-cheeked. Raw. Icy fingertips. Frozen Toes. Honest. I swear.

In other news, my Aussie friend could not find work here and has decided to return to Australia. This news has hit me hard since we've spend a lot of high-quality time together in the short time we've both lived in Cork. We really click, and I think she is delightful. She'll be sorely missed. (Yes, even with your Star Trek pin, M!)
