AINT NO POLICE ISLAND!

first of all, there's a naked man in the apartment across the courtyard.
i wasn't going to post about THAT, but "topher" brought it to my attention.
he's just cleaning. naked. (naked man, not "topher", you'll be relieved to know.)
i feel profaned.

next, we apologize for the lack of posting. theoretically there should be twice as many posts since we are twice as many people, but we are making up for it with ARAN ISLAND PICTURE EXTRAVAGANZA!

last wknd we went to galway and the aran islands. we stayed at the smallest island, inis oirr. it was bee-u-tiful.
see:



here's a list of things we did:
-stayed at a real life hostel
-invaded one of two pubs on the island
-observed a stonecutter's convention
-toured the island via horse and buggy
-toured the island via bicycle
-jumped on rocks
-explored an old rusty ship
-explored a cemetary and 10th cent. stone church
-looked at pretty pretty water
-pointed at inishmaan and inishmore
-killed a cat
-participated in a ben folds singalong (...)
-frolicked with irish dogs
-befriended a PONY

ok, those last two things were basically just me. we also took many a picture. see fo yo'selves:

also, since i'm having trouble putting pictures up on the internet in a timely manner, take a look-see at chelsea's photo thingy. i mostly look like a moron in most of those. "topher" looks like a dreamboat, of course.

and of course there's more on facebook.

oh, and here's the thing about inis oirr: NO GUARDA AKA POLICE! weeeeeeeeeeeeee!

"topher" and i also want you to know that we don't just get "plastered" here.
in case you were wondering.
mom.

tomorrow is the equivalent of the irish superbowl. we'll let you know how that goes. it should be madness.

so pretty! all of the irish animal encounters sound fun, and i hope you really did kill a cat, because lying would just be mean.

irish superbowl? whaaa?

the fact that "topher" is continually in quotes cracks me up, it does
