Hey Y'all..well is Thursday evening and I am still at work.,.but not working..and not on the clock. Just waiting to meet up with JEn so we can godo something especially unique to SCotland..shop at the mall!! There is a mall about three mins walk from where I work..I've avoided visiting it during lunch..namely due to my dedication to blog writing and email and lack of funds to spend at any shop.  Yep..but tonite, instead of seeing CATS or going to Glasgow, we've opted to go mall shopping...

BUt can you blame us..we've got a big weekend ahead..Tomorrow nite one of hte girls from work is having her leaving do so drinks are to be had uring the day at local pub and into the night. Tom Jones is also playing just outside the castle so may take a wander over to listen to the SexBomb king do his thing.

Saturday - this Shanadian's first (and last?) driving experience in the UK. It just occurred to me that I will have ot shift with my left hand. Shifting (wink wink to those who know the doublemeaning there) has never been my specialty..lets just jope I catch on quickly....

We're driving around Scotland..up to Iverness and through the Highlands..lots to see, plenty of miles to be clicked. Return to Edinburgh Sunday evening. Me thinks its time to call in a sickie..you know in all time I've worked anywhere..I've only ever called in sick once..and I wasn't sick, but had good reason to miss work.

My exciting news for the week is that my friend Pam, who I met in Dublin, but is Scottish and has spent last year in Australia..is returning to her home country tomorrow!!! Just in time for flat-warming next week..Plan of Action..how to convince her to move to Edinburgh (At moshe lives in Pitlochry..about halfway between here and Inverness)...

I need A Plan..Jen is Plan Queen..we will strategize, but where is Don Wagner when you need him??

K..off I go to shop..wish me luck!
