I officially have a fixation with the emerald isle.
First of all, my dad's family's Irish. So, therefore, I have Irish blood in me. Strangely enough, I feel much more Irish than I really am... my great grandparents were the last pure Irish blood in my family. But as long as I can remember, I've had a strange fascination with the place, and I've had an intense longing to visit there ever since a was a small girl.
Perhaps it's partly my love of fantasy, or more specifically, love of the Faerie culture. Ireland is so rich with stories of the Downe Sidhe that the whole country is a mix of ancient and modern. There are high rises in Dublin, but you won't find many people who will willingly build anything on a Faerie mound. In Ireland, children aren't the only ones who believe, most adults will not ever willingly give up their heritage.
I love Ireland with every bone in my body, and I have yet to go there. If I could go to any country as an exchange partner, or to a a foreign school, I would go to Ireland.
Tiffy the Pink Fluffy Yellow Llama came from a long and complicated joke made up way back in elementary school by my friend Richard. It had something to do with a strange writing assignment from our incredible english teacher. And yes, it is possible to be a pink llama and a yellow llama at the same time. Just don't ask me how.

That's pretty cool. Do you have a little Leprechaun in the same way some people have guardian angels? :P
Yep :) HIs name is Patrick :)
That is awesome! Does he have a little pot of gold too?
Yep! And a rainbow :)
PS, I like your new pic better. It's pretty sweet!
Rainbow's are awesome. :) So you must be siting on a pretty good spot. You got the little guardian angel-like thing, the money, and an amazing view.
What this black one versus the single eye one?
Yeah!
Nice. Lucky you.
