Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!

As I seem to have fallen into something of a rut in terms of oozing sarcasm, this will be a relatively short post.

So we've come to the big Oireachtas weekend. I'm pretty scared...three months is a long time to have gone without playing a feis and jumping into the biggest weekend of the year is pretty nerve-wracking. I'm really nervous!

I'd write more, but I should probably go and practice. With luck, I'll have many more emotions to report about AFTER the Oireachtas...my posts of late have lacked that chock-full-o-rage sentiment that is so endearing to so many. I hadn't thought I'd changed much since entrance day, but perhaps I have: I've lost my bitterness and anger. Sad, terribly sad....it was so charming.

Slainte to all!

Ryan,

Knock it off! Get a grip! It's just like riding a bike - once you start, you'll be fine. Don't be nervous, or let anyone think you are. AND definitely don't allow any nasty cow teacher stand over you like you did in Newport. No need to practice any hornpipe sets with a 24 bar set either!!! They're too long anyhow! Have fun, and enjoy your break from Loyola House! I want the dirt...

You know who!
