"Dad must have been drinking the night I was conceived, a flailing lost delirious sperm, a seaman lost at sea" - 'Die In Your Arms' - Soul Asylum
Well hello my children, I hope you feel privileged that I got up early today to write in my blog before going to Sligo with Niall, Don & Trev (my brother got called into work). It's even more impressive when you consider that I was woken up at 4.30 this morning by Don and Lorraine because Lorraine wanted to see how I was... :-/ Tired and irritable at that hour Lorraine! And Niall, who had the good grace to stay downstairs didn't help much because he gets progressively louder the drunker he gets. Oh and he bailed on our jog last night too! Twice in a row. Clearly his commitment to improving his fitness is already on the wane. Tut-tut Niall. You may be Person of the Week but this type of attitude had better be improved upon or else somebody else might take your crown. Like Don. Or Bob! Well ok, maybe not Bob! :-p
Anyways, I haven't got a whole lot more to say. Sligo is a long journey and a crap town and Limerick always tend to lose there (especially when I bother to make the trip) so I'm not expecting a huge amount. Against that we are on a comparative roll at the moment so who knows right? And we're picking up some new gear so I'll gt first dibs on that too (well along with the other three lads but that's not a major concern cos we're all different sizes anyways.
You know somebody said the other day that this blog reminded them of a reality TV show but personally I prefer to think of it as a sit-com. It could be called 'The Dar Show' or just as simply 'Darspeak'. Or 'Deadtime'. Naturally I would be the 'star' in the broadest terms in the same way that Jerry is technically the top dog in 'Seinfeld'. But bless you guys because I honestly think that Niall, Bob, Don and occasionally Brian (when he turns up) easily match Elaine, Kramer, George and the sporadic appearances of Newman. My show would have a much better soundtrack too and appeals to far more demographs. We have my quartet of Bangladeshi workmates to corner the Asian market and now there's even an American interest. And somebody from Achill Island to lower the tone of things... Oh and Dave T's from Waterford which must count for something. Oh the possibilities are endless. Though it would probably just wind up being episode after episode of me and Niall sprawled out in my room... though that could be interesting too.
