A Decade Ago in Dublin…. The journal of a foreigner in ireland. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. August 15, 2001. August 15, 2011. My absolute favorite time of day – weekday noontime alone in a house full of people. I seem to have slept off what was getting to me. I overslept my usual 9AM by two hours – which is very unusual for me. Last night Rafal appeared at the movie theatre five minutes late. 8211; Where have you been, late boy? 8211; Would you mind if I walked you home? My poetry...

A Decade Ago in Dublin…. The journal of a foreigner in ireland. Skip to primary content. August 13, 2001. August 13, 2011. I need to write more often because I’m always playing catch up. And even though Maeve washed the table in her cleaning spree for Fiona’s arrival, it is still really nasty and I’m still using a magazine as a forearm condom. Though the magazine, having been on the table, is not all that much better. And some crackers so it’s back to bread and pasta! For a while, at least. Funny how I’v...

August 12, 2011. 8211; What time did y’all stay up to? 8211; Are you all right? 8211; No. I am not all right. 8211; Um, well, what’s up? 8211; Rafal has just kicked me out of house. 8211; Oh. Well, maybe he’s just hung over. 8211; It is not funny. 8211; How much for the bus, 60p? 8211; What will I do? I have no place to go? 8211; Easy to say. 8211; I know. Easy to say, not so easy to do.

A Decade Ago in Dublin…. The journal of a foreigner in ireland. Skip to primary content. August 10, 2001. August 10, 2011. Two weeks from today and I will be done! Only 11 shifts including this one looming over my afternoon! I am so tired of this job. I am so bored! I haven’t touched by crosswords book or really anything. Mostly I stare out in a self-pitying stupor. When I planned to do this I really thought that 4 months would just swim past. How wrong I was. Watched O Brother Where Art Thou? Since I’ve...

I think, maybe, that I have an affinity for being nobody. Rafal. An affinity for mediocrity. Looking up at that hole in the ceiling is like peering into the spine of my room. Sorry, Aoife, no such luck. 20 days from now I will be DONE with this hated job! 15 shifts to go! August 3, 2001. August 3, 2011. Anyway, had...

How would you like all the El Salvadoreans and Hispanics that we have? 8211; I think as long as someone’s willing to work, that’s fine with me. 8211; They DON’T. I work in a school. They don’t want to work. 8211; Now, my husband’s a foreigner. But he’s a Palestinian CHRISTIAN. And he took the SAT and got a perfect score. That’s scholastic aptitude. The racist had ...
