Pray For Me

I'm going to be teaching in Ireland this week.

Sounds like fun, doesn't it? Of course it does, that's why I jumped at the chance. It's only now as I prepare a travel packet for tomorrow that a million little realities rear their ugly little heads. Did you know they that they drive on the left in Ireland? I'm sure you did. Did you know that they have traffic circles in Ireland? No big surprise. Did you know I'm going to have to drive left through traffic circles? I bet you didn't think about that.

If you never hear from me again, you'll know why.

An Important Life Lesson

I learned an important life lesson this morning: never park under a billboard. I did last night. While I slept, a flock of birds repainted my car.

Sigh.
