One year and a lifetime ago

8/03/06- I have been in Dublin for 2 days now, Ireland for 3. Several things have gone astray (missed buses, wrong train, etc) but nothing has bothered me yet.
The first night in a hostel was strange. I had two girl roommates, a German and a Swede. It is strange not having much personal space.
The weather her is great. High’s in the 60,s. My gout hand continues to progress slowly- I hope to get most of the movement back. I have started some self invented stretching exercises. (Written awaiting a train in Dalkey Ireland)
