Most of you know that I get really obsessed with certain things for a short amount of time until something new comes along and needs to be obsessed about. These are my latest obsessions.
1. reading biographies...mostly about missionaries that lived a long time ago like William Carey, Amy Carmicheal and Patrick of Ireland (yeah, took me awhile to figure out that was ST. Patrick. He was really interesting.)
2. the candy corn pumpkins! I dream about these all year long and now it's the only time of year when I can justify eating an entire bag of them. you know it's an obsession when caroline and i break into nicole's classroom just to steal some of these pumpkins from her estimation jar. oops! your class might need to re-estimate that.
3. running. I feel really weird when I skip a day. so I even ran the 1/2 marathon with a fever yesterday. probably why I'm home sick today.
4. Jimmy Eat World's new cd. "Chase this Light" I listen to it about twice a day. I think that justifies an obsession.
5. Looking up international schools and then researching the city and getting obsessed about it. Currently I am obsessed with Cairo. I just go over my obsession with Madrid.
6. My trip to Ireland!! Yes, it's really happening. 20 more days!

I AM OBSESSED WITH CAIRO ALSO!!! and you're going to ireland after all?!
hehehe...funny you should mention it. i found a cruise from argentina to antartica the other day :)
Yeah, I guess I should add Antarctica to by obsessions.
ok glad you're obsessed so now you can figure out where you want to go while you're here! we can either choose to head all the way up north to the giant's causeway OR we can stay down southwest-ish and visit galway, dingle, killarney, etc. we may be able to do killarney and the giant's causeway but i'm not sure if we'll have enough time b/c they're opposite ends. keep up with the research and tell me what parts you'd like to see! (we will definitely do both cork and dublin)
