My Redhead

Today I had my second class of the semester, and so far I'm two for two with loving the classes and professors. Monday was "The EU and Business Environment" and today was "Mgmt of Innovation & Change." Both professors seem active and passionate about the subjects, which always helps. Tonight is the inauguration of President Elect Obama. I can't say I'm excited, but I am hopeful. He's taking many pages out of Lincoln's book, and if he continues to do so, perhaps this won't be so bad after all. UCD is hosting an event for all American students to watch the broadcast live and provide us with (free!) food, so I am excited about that.

(Us at Oliver St. John Gogarty's; the BEST pub in Dublin)

Nothing compares to my excitement about being this close to Susan though. I'm sure everyone around us will get completely sick of us, but feck 'em. (Or frak, since BSG has started back up...YAY! PS, Ellen as th 5th cylon?! WTF?!) It's gonna be hard to fight the urge to see each other constantly, but just having that desire is such a welcomed change for me. It's been forever since I've wanted to spend time with my significant other. And for the first time in my life, I'm actually the one bringing up the future. It's really true; when you know...you know. =)

OK, I should really get going. I have to get to Argos in the city centre and back before 6pm for the inauguration speech. And we all know how public transport is ALWAYS on schedule; things are no different here in Dublin.
