As a Simpsons bon fide lover I got drunk last night on like 4 drinks and today I have the equivalent hangover of what I would have had five years ago on fifteen drinks.I volunteered for the Cork Midsummer Festival and last night stewarded at Wired and Free, an outdoor air theatre spectacle using cranes. This was my second night helping at the same show and a Saturday night so I was antsy to return to the pub as fast as my wellies would let me.
It was interesting walking through Cork city on my own in Glastonbury/Hillwalker gear on a Saturday night. I got to be the observer. I knew men wouldn't bother a girl in wellies. So I watched them, so loud..everybody loses volume control when they drink and the girls in hot pants and all the other kind citizens. When I got to the pub I had some nice pints and merry was made. After said drinks I went to the loo in the kebab shop and thought better of eating a kebab when I used the loo but my lovely man had already got me one. I was not sure about it but when I got a whiff, how could a drink fuelled girl say no? I gave half of it to a friend who gobbled it down like a rhino on a barren plain.
That's what bullies get for saying I don't like the Simpsons. It's blogged!
This time it's personal!

Shoebox To Let- Suit Professional Small People
Myself and my lovely boyfriend are hunting for private rented accommodation at present. We want a bit of privacy (pleasant but audible food muncher flat mates are outdated) but the present market in Cork is not very friendly. There seems to be little out there. Everything seems overpriced from a few months ago average €800 to €900 and now minimum €1000. We viewed an "apartment"(Shoebox) in "Blackrock" (Mahon). The rent at least wasn't too bad and everything was new. However, there is something so unsavoury about these new pint sized apartments with purpose-shrunk furniture to glaze over the fact that the space is tiny. The sad fact is that when we rang the agent back to say that we had reconsidered because it was too small he said there would be no problem. "There's a queue of people to take it" and I don't doubt it. But I don't actually have that much crap and neither does my boyfriend. We are not hoarders (well, I'm not)But I was just left wondering, who can live comfortably in a place like that? Unless they are leprachauns. Space is an expensive commodity nowadays. Where are my false teeth?

addictive website
I must share this addictive website. It's a site of funny photos of cute animals but it is not just cutsie wootsie. It is actually very funny and all the photos have weird captions by illiterate people who seem to be obsessed with cheeseburgers and baskets. http://icanhascheezburger.com/
