... and my is it rainy.

So now I've moved from my sleepy old town in Massachusetts the bustlling hub-bub of Glasgow, Scotland, aanndd I'm freaking bored.

I've made friends with a Greecian, a Norwegian and a Kenyan, but I don't have a cell phone so I've no way of contacting them for going out for drinking or dinner. I guess that just means I'll have to be social and meet other people. Maybe I can pick up a french or italian girl.

Saturday! I shall get a cell phone... then... THE WORLD!!!!!!

Lovely weather though. God save me.

I actually do love it here though.

Ia! Ia!

have some haggis on toast down at the kilt'n'bagpipe

tell em i sent you, and sit in the corner under the coat-of-arms

wait 12 minutes, then start whistling the theme song from 'sanford & son'

you will be approached by a large woman carrying a newt in her cleavage

you're on your own from there

First thing's first - even if you don't, pretend you like Scotch whiskey. They'll kill you if you say the J word.
Nextly, it's not a cell phone anymore. You're in the real world and they say mobile.
Haggis isn't really eaten by anyone all that much any more. You're more likely to come across a deep fried Mars bar than a haggis. You know what else is a dish invented in Scotland? Chicken tikka masala.
Even if you've never seen a football (which now means soccer, by the way) match, Wayne Rooney will be villified. Join in.
Your 'pants' are now worn on the inside.
It's spelt 'theatre' - if you're going to visit Edinbrough that's pretty important.

Get used to the rain. And the cold. Scotland makes you want to piss. A lot.
And for the love of God, don't ask about the monster.

Hah. I do spell it as theatre and I bought a bottle of Jack Daniels without offending anyone. I'll keep it in mind though.

Jameson's.
And seriously, no one eats haggis in Scotland. In fact, I'm not sure it's even really Scottish.

It has oats in it, that makes it scottish. anything with oats in it is automatically scottish.
