the truth is discovered







So my weekend visits in Belfast further confirmed my earlier suspicions... I am supposed to be a princess. I really think that I could enjoy spending my days reading in the garden and enjoying fruity drink served to me by distinguished gentlemen--- hosting elegant affairs and dancing under the stairs... greeting my guests from the stone staircase... and waving softly... elbow elbow... wrist wrist wrist.... why do I know that if I am not to be a princess someday??? Ughhh... I suppose my patience will only make me better royalty! These are a few pictures that I took on satuday.

I also went to the market on Saturday with Grainne's mom (mum for all of the Irish readers). It reminded me of the north market a bit. I started thinking... having my philosophical moment in the Belfast castle garden how so many things are similar here. Not the same, but close with a different spin on it. It is actually quite comforting. If homesickness ever strikes me, this may be the most difficult part of the trip.. close but no cigar! We'll see. I also started thinking when I come home I need to start taking advantage of the things that Columbus does offer... so watch out friends... you are all sure to be dragged along!

You can drag me around Columbus anytime Steph. You have for the last three years--otherwise I'd be a complete hermit. Glad you're having fun. Chat later?

Once again, awesome pics Steph. Altough maybe I am putting a connection where there isn't one... Do you want to be a princess of cheese?

Well Adam... I was the Dairy princess... perhaps there was a subconscious connection even I didn't realize:)

Wait a minute, you mean you aren't royalty?? Well then I guess we cannot be friends, my mum, Queen Judy tells me that I am not to speak with commonfolk. But maybe she'll make an exception for you, my dad is gone for a fortnight, he's off slaying the dragons again, so I'll work on her. :)

Royally Yours,

Heidi

It's OK Randy, I just realized that I mispelled "although."
