Thursday. Still cockeyed, mad at the social welfare board.

If anyone from the social welfare happens to be reading this, I need another means test, I’m living on 30 euros a week here. Fuckin’ broke as shit.

Hair had a bit of funk to it… shower time.

A little crazy eyed.

Oy… This whole 365 project is tough, and moving is really screwing up the schedule.

Here’s today’s picture.

And for today, have one of my favourite pictures of me.

I call it the Prize-fighter.

“I’ll have at you, you scoundrel!”

Guess who got mentioned on national radio?

That’d be me. I was mentioned on the Ray Foley Show yesterday.
On Today FM, one of the national radio stations of Ireland.

So there you go. Minor fame. Don’t discount local publicity outside of the internet.
Hundreds of views in a single day, due to a little mention on the radio.

Thanks Ray.

Well… that was an interesting week

Ok so first off, I haven’t been able to take pictures this last week, haven’t had a camera or Internet. I’ll do something to make it up to you in the coming weeks, I’m open to suggestions. It has been a seriously tough week, being without Internet, scraping by on what little money we had, just trying to stay warm in the coldest house in Letterkenny during the worst weekend (weather wise) in years. It’s been hard, but it’s been worth it.

I’m out living with friends, we’ll have Internet very soon, and a phone, and my money will be sorted out very soon. It’s all going to be ok…. I’m sure of it. Right?

Oh yeah, my pocket watches arrived during the week. They’re nice. A little small, but nice. Good, solid… bullet proof.

When all my shit is sorted out, and I can settle down for 5 minutes I’ll get everything back on track.

Filler day 6

It seems as I get more and more into this, I realise (No American spell check I will not put a Z in realise) that I’ve missed quite a few days. I’m really going to have to take my camera with me everywhere.
