Keeping with the theme – I appreciate how walkable Dublin is.
I had a doctor’s appointment today… but instead of driving, or taking a bus, or cycling, I decided to just take a walk. I wasn’t in a rush, for once, and figured that your man here could use the sunlight and exercise.
So I put on my shoes, and walked.

Glen Hansard died earlier in the week.
Now, to be very transparent, I didn’t know Glen Hansard. I didn’t know him personally, nor by reputation… but from what I understand, he was rather famous and quite influential in the Irish music scene… and in the international scene. Really, upon reflection, I have no excuse NOT to know about him… but such is life, right?
It was pretty neat getting to see the hearse and horses, though.

One of the many things I do really appreciate about living in Dublin is the sheer walkability of the city.
I mean… say my brain is melted from job applications, or banjo financials, or who knows what else. What do I do? Just step out the door and start walking. Pretty much anywhere I walk will be vaguely pretty; parks, cute row houses, and pretty doors.
I have my frustrations, no doubt, but… there’s some pretty aspects too.
