Liverpool [February 11-13, 2011]
DAY ONE Friday, February 11, 2011 – Woke up at 6AM…pressed snooze button until 6:15AM…finally got out of bed. First thing’s first, rubbed eyes for three minutes. Second, more important but far less satisfying thing, called a cab to get me at 7:10AM. I packed the night before so I just had to put my pyjamas in my bag and I was pretty much ready … Continue reading Liverpool [February 11-13, 2011]

Homeward Bound [December 7-8, 2009]
I’m waiting for the train from York to London. There are a good number of people on the platform with me. Our train is due at 16:34; it is now 16:15. A train pulls up, a load of people get on, I sort of wonder if this is my train. I look at the departures board and it still says “London 16:34 on time” – … Continue reading Homeward Bound [December 7-8, 2009]

December [Part 2]: The Call
Sunday night is my house’s Christmas dinner since it is my last night at home. So, while Dan cooks a chicken with numerous side dishes I go upstairs to call my boss. I have to use the house phone, which we keep unplugged in a cupboard upstairs, because my cell phone is out of credit. So, Richard (the owner) answers the phone when I call. … Continue reading December [Part 2]: The Call
December [Part 1]: The Cold
Well, it’s been a jam packed 24 hours but the first leg of my surprise Christmas return is underway! Over the past few days I’ve started to develop the old head cold (boo). Saturday I woke up and with a sore throat; the first sign that something is not right. So, naturally, I pump myself full of as much orange juice as possible. Believing, of … Continue reading December [Part 1]: The Cold
The Money Pit
Let me explain the housing situation. When I first arrived in England I had no house. Well, it was here, it was just in pieces. Construction on my house has been ongoing since…let’s just say the watch that was keeping track of time ran out of battery. I believe the original plan was the have the house finished and ready to move into by June. … Continue reading The Money Pit
New Plan [October 1, 2009]
The old plan of chili for dinner has been cancelled, the new plan is to have a night out in Leeds! And Ron, Darrell, and I all work together tomorrow. Reflection (from October 5) – Leeds was madness! We missed 2 trains within 5 minutes. Drank in the train station bar for 30 minutes while we waited for the next train. Met a kid named … Continue reading New Plan [October 1, 2009]
