shopping weekend

Ahir em vaig comprar el neopre mes bo de la marca O'neill, en la versio de 5/3mm, o sigui que no hauria de passar fred ni en l'epoca mes freda, aqui a un parell de mesos. Avui he anat a l'Ikea a comprar llencols, un nordic i elements organitzadors per l'armari, i tan aviat com el pintor acabi de fer el pis, em mudare : ) La meva habitacio, el passadis i el menjador ja estan fets, pero dema el meu company de pis haura de dormir a la meva habitacio perque la seva sera insuportablement pudurenta.

Yesterday I went to a really cool surf shop on a boat and bought a 5/3 Psycho 2 wetsuit. Yes, it was expensive, especially because I paid it in euros, but I'm sure I'll be happy to have in a few months when the water is freezing. On Wednesday I'd bought a fleece-like rashguard to wear under my other wetsuit, another super-stretchy O'neill that I've loved since the very moment I tried it on a couple of seasons ago.

Later I met up with a friend at Stephen Green's mall and looked for bedding and such, but I didn't get anything. Dublin center was packed, like any city center on a Saturday afternoon before Christmas, I guess. It was drizzly but not too cold (for me anyway, now that I have built resistance to 2+ degree temperatures ; ) There were Christmas lights hanging between buildings on Grafton st. and more musicians than usual played to make money for good causes --or for themselves.

This morning I took it easy, and after a late breakfast in the hotel a friend picked me up to take me to her place, where I picked some nice clothes for the black tie Christmas dinner coming up. I then went to Ikea, had lunch and bought all my linen and organizers for my huge closet. I also got a furry companion --will show a picture of him when my room is all tidy and ready to show : )

It was cold today! Sunny but cold, with a freezing breeze. Good thing I stopped at Boots (a pharmacy) to finally buy detangler and a hair brush, because my hair was all over the place today...
