Recording and Recouping

Recording for Ceili House (to be broadcast on RTE 1 this Saturday at 9:00 PM GMT) went very well, despite a late start and some mishaps during the recording session itself (first years had problems tuning their harp, which led to some interesting takes). If anybody is interested in listening to it, they can stream it (live or for the week after it airs) by clicking here.

Rag Week continues with alarming pace--just last night, as I was finally tired enough to sleep, the guys upstairs got back from the clubs and decided to continue the party in their flat. From 2:30AM to 4:30AM, doors were banging, music was blasting, and phones were ringing (and by phones, I mean ours, but only until I unplugged it from the phone line). This has meant an increasing lack of sleep as the week continues, so I've decided to spend tonight in with Karin after running some errands--tesco (this week's meal is tomato sauce and meatballs, but tonight, instead of pasta, I want a meatball sub, which means I need cheese and bread), the English Market (I need more yarn--finished Barby's scarf, pictures later--and I might buy my bread there), and the City Library (can always use more music and Karin wants to get a library card).

Tonight, Karin and I will watch a movie and possibly make cookies. Because, you know, cookies are yummy.
