scotland forever a month

on saturday, i leave for scotland. i’ll be there for a month, working on a top secret project. work is sending me. though scotland is not a country i’ve ever really considered visiting, i’m excited to be going. i don’t think i ever considered visiting because it’s not warm and it’s kind of expensive, re: weak dollar. so to my mind, there were already two strikes against it. oh, and the hard-to-decipher accent was the third. the scottish mouth and the american ear don’t seem to line up, or at least their mouths don’t line up with my ear. though pc mentioned that if i can understand them, they’re from edinburgh; if i can’t, they’re from glasgow. i’m considering myself lucky that i’ll be in the former.

so over the next few days i’ll be boxing up my bike, getting my computers together, and putting some clothes in a bag (hiking, biking, running, regular). and then gone. i’ll let you know how it goes. there will be blogging.

    i’ve heard excellent things about edinburgh. you need to ask emma about glasgow, and em&lo getting booed offstage by a bunch of angry scots. i think it was for mentioning s-e-x.

    anyway, have fun–looking forward to updates!
