So I have been to London, and I should be in Ireland right now, but I am terribly ill, so I am recovering slowly but surely, cooped up here in Oxford. Luckily, they sell what are essentially narcotics over the counter in this great country- God love 'em.
London was brilliant- so much to do. On top of all of the year round funsies that exist in this great city, we were lucky enough to walk into Trafalgar's Square during Gay Pride weekend. Needless to say we watched the parade and took tons of photos with drag queens. There was also the London Eye, Big Ben, phone booths, Tower of London, Tower Bridge (AKA London Bridge...the actual London bridge is rather anti-climactic), and all sorts of other England icons. Oh and Herod's- I touched a $20,000.00 designer dress. That place is out of control- they even sell fossils and dinosaur bones (for hundreds of thousands of dollars, mind you, but the people who actually shop there are so obscenely rich they don't know what else to do with their money other than buy bones...)
For now, though, I am drinking gallons of water and sleeping every few hours. And watching sappy love movies. All in all unproductive, but we all have those days.
This coming week holds midterms and a visit to Birmingham to see the platonic love of my life- Tatum. And then, hopefully disease free, I am off to Scotland!
To see the drag queens mentioned above (and other, less interesting euro- photos) go to www.picasaweb.google.com/mollybeth35/ and enjoy!
I am beginning to feel homesickness creep up on me, but I blame my drug induced drought of activities and human contact- but for now, I miss everyone at home and I can't wait to see you in a few weeks! I love England, but something must be done about this weather- hopefully they figured out something good at the G8 Summit.
That will be all for now, it is time for a nap.
Cheers,
Molly
