So, like, I don't really want to update. But I have nothing better to do at this very moment. I just got back from grocery shopping. Yesterday Simon did it, but he came home with a whole bunch of crap. Amazing amounts of candy, cheese and beer.
Very good stuff, I'm not really complaining.
Scotland's pretty spiffy still. I've already made friends apart from the ones I had in the first place. Such as Ewan, the crazy Highlander, who runs around in a kilt every day and speaks of Mel Gibson as his national hero. As well as the insane witch from downstairs. I somehow think she sacrifices sheep or something. She does lots of drugs, however. So many, you get high just from stepping out of this apartment and taking in the fumes. Simon and I like to sniff on her door to see if she's been smoking shit again. It's always the case. Splendid lady.
One of these days Simon and I are going on a roundtrip. We'll start here in Glasgow, move on to Ayr, Kilmarnock, West Highlands because of castles and various lochs I want to see, Edinburgh and back to Glasgow. I'll have to come back for the Shetland Folk Festival next month, hopefully I can take some time off again.
Last night a ceilidh happened. Fortunately, Simon's a great dancer so we rocked the kilts and whatnot.
It's really good to spend some time away from what I'm used to. Germany and the people there really got on my nerves lately. Not to mention the stupid situation I'm in. I can't talk about it, but it exists and ugh. With a strange Scot around me all the time, I'm getting a new outlook on life, and I believe that's just what I needed.
Less cryptic stuff will come up. Maybe.
That's it. I don't work half as much as I should, but whatever. There's more important things than working. Sometimes.
