Edinburgh

I am in Edinburgh. Internet cafe. The family is waiting for me, so I must be quick, even though I spent the last long amount of time waiting for them, because clearly I am just a better person. I cleaned the mouse because it was being slow and annoying. I'm a silly goose.

Today we wandered around the huge friggin' castle in the middle of Edinburgh. We saw the working cloth factory mill and I spent quite some time staring at the spools of yarn all lined up and huge and strung into the giant loom thing in their pattern and the loom thing spun around a lot. I liked that part. I also liked all the castle stuff. Big and old and medieval and impressive. More on the castle later when I have time. Yesterday we shopped and shopped and shopped and shopped. I got a sweater and crap and extrodinarily expensive souvenirs for every one of my friends so if you get no expensive souvenir you are not my friend. Not really. But we just. kept. shopping. My mom and sister have incredible shopping stamina. We ate at a Scottish restaurant and I had the best food. Venison. Deliciousness.

London was also mostly shopping with a bit of time in the Tate Modern (mmm...modern art. Jill likes modern art). I need to find a photo of Lobster Telephone by Dali to post on here because it was my favorite thing ever. Also I loves me some Jackson Pollock and other stuff. Good stuff. Christmas dinner was nice, too. Christmas day was nicer as we went to Anglican services at the Westminster Abbey and that was gorgeous and amazing and I'll say more about that later, too.

That is all for now. I STILL HAVE NO FOTHERMUCKING NEW YEARS PLANS.

Home tomorrow night.

People no longer email me, they comment on my blog. I have no friends. Obviously.

If you know what's good for you, you'll have a bridie or two while you're in Scotland. Those things are good. Also, remember those eggs-coated-in-sausage things Jeni made once? Also Scottish. Might be called Scotch Eggs, but I can't remember.

Embrace the Scottish food, Jill. Embrace.
