"She apparently started laughing and crying for no reason while serving."
So I'll be sure to warn those around me if I start doing this (more than is usual).
Normal life has resumed after the holidays. We're back to looking for apartments without any luck so far. But I was lucky enough to score tickets for Arcade Fire in the Phoenix Park in October - this time they took 5 minutes to sell out instead of 5 seconds, which I can only take to mean that this time next year they'll be all washed up and performing on celebrity You're a Star. (Or the non-union Canadian equivalent of same). As I write I'm sure unscrupulous people are auctioning their tickets for ridiculous amounts on eBay. Cue Homer voice: "Damn you eBay!"
