Ireland, pt 7: The Festival? The Festival!

Not going to start singing that song from Into The Woods…not gonna, not gonna…

Now, where did we leave off? Oh, right.  So, the morning after the first day Tall Ships Festival, I woke up late (for once) and had eggs and yogurt for breakfast. Never woulda guessed I like yogurt, would you? The August session of Camp NaNoWriMo had just started—yes, NaNoWriMo takes up most of my life—so I got some writing done before we drove to a fort. I didn't take any notes on this, and I don't remember much about it. I'm finally seeing a downside to procrastination.

Later, we drove to a lighthouse (couldn't go up in it), and then climbed around some tide pools for a while. Or something. I'm purely working off the notes I took and my faulty little memories. One thing I do remember pretty clearly is one of the most hilarious-in-retrospect thing that happened on that vacation.

I was selling CDs for the band with Dean, and we had only sold one CD when a trio of 11-year-old boys came by and hassled us for a while. It was kind of hilarious. While it was happening I was just sitting there like, "S r s l y w h a t i s t h i s ?" but, come on, how many other people can say they've been mildly hassled by a trio of 11-year-old Irish boys while selling CDs? Very few, I'm sure.

Well, now I have to go "do" some "writing." Totally not sitting here, staring at a blank screen.


Watch out next time for a Very Special Post about the really freakin' weird dream I had. Or probably not. Most likely not.

You know, you never finished this. There's still days left that haven't been blogged about. Idiot.
