Monday, Monday, la la, la la la

I think my heading came from a song by the Mamas and the Papas. But I digress....

It's Monday morning and I am back at the library using the internet for a minute. I am suppose to be on my way to the General Records Office to meet Aunt Joyce, so I will make this fast.

Yesterday we went to church. The people there were very nice. There was this short Middle Eastern looking man that just happened to by coming to Mesa of all places in the next few weeks. He really creeped me out! He would ask me a question and then after I answered him as nicely as I could, he would just stand there and stare at me all intense and creepy. I don't know if he was waiting for me to invite him to hang out or what... but I think I'll stick to my new match on eHarmony. His name is Jamie and he's from Ohio. He's 36, 6 feet tall and works in Insurance...I think. I'm sure we'll be married by Christmas, so be sure to save the date. (I'm kidding Mom and Dad.....we'll wait until at least Spring Break!)

In the morning we ate breakfast with our same friends from Saturday. Ryan, the teacher from Wisconsin, and Paul the Lounge Singer from Dublin. There was also another guy that showed up both days, but he was anti social so he doesn't count. It was fun to just sit around and shoot the bull for a little bit with friendly people. I won't be going to France anytime soon. Not lovin' the French these days!

After church we had the cab driver drop us off downtown so we could eat lunch. We ate at a Chinese Buffet. Those of you that know me know that I don't usually allow those two words to be said together in my presense, but it wasn't bad. After lunch we headed back to the B&B for a long day of relaxation. You gotta love those Sunday afternoon naps! (CF8)

I will have to share a funny thing I saw on Saturday night. First off, everything here in Scotland in the towns I have been so far closes at 5, minus a few pubs. So night light is almost non existant unless you're a big drinker...which I have considered taking up, but have refrained. I think I would hate to drink alone. But anyway.....

So, Saturday night we're walking along and I saw this fairly tough looking bloke walking towards us. He had on a black ski type hat. A black wife beater, a chain around his waiste holding his wallet and keys, black socks and black boots. BUT.... was he wearing black pants, you ask? No. That would be a black kilt! You don't ever want to mess with a man wearing a black kilt!!!! I laughed out loud, but refrained from taking a picture.

Tomorrow we rent a car and head to Banchory. That is the place where I will spend 5 nights in a hotel. I will surely let you know how a hote differs from a Hostel or a B&B. I can't believe that one week from today I will be on a plane coming home. I take that back....I can't believe that a week from today I will be on three different planes coming home. Uggghhhhh! Just the thought of that many hours on a plane makes me airsick!

Ok. I am late for the records office! There is a phrase I don't ever want to use again! TTFN!
