Ireland..Part I


for eating..not for playing.











I like to leave an impression wherever I go..
my American stamp if you will.

On this particular trip to Ireland I

a. got a severe Kidney infection and had to go to the doctor twice
b. Thought my lady time was over so wore white pants then proceeded to have lady time all over them.
c. could not flush the toilet in the house I was staying at and had to wake up my friend to flush it for me. more than once.
d. wore flats and a white blazer to a farming fair.
e. all of the above.

  3. Sounds like you definitely left your mark! lol. I found your blog from "one can hope"'s blog. I am from CA too, but Northern CA. I really like your pictures! How much longer will you be overseas?

  4. oh WOW. kidneys are ok now right?
    the toilet not flushing is one of those nightmare things. at least you had a friend with you who could help you out, and not have to call, like, the concierge. (i swear that didn't happen to me.)
    oh, euro toilets.

  7. A kidney infection!? :( I am so sorry Megan! I have had kidney stones and that was the worst pain I've ever experienced. I hope you are feeling better! Lady time always complicates lives doesn't it? Screw her! But on a good note, you still look beautiful. Xoxoxo.

  13. I'm with the others, I don't even know what to say! Gosh, what a terrible time.

    Trust me, Ireland really is wonderful. :)Go back...sans white pants.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Ouch. The kidneys. Hopefully you are better now! On all accounts... lady time and kidneys.

    I love the picture of the piggies, and how they all look like they are wearing teeny white tee shirts.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I am absolutely in awe of this post. The blazer, the umbrella, the piglets....i want.

    but mostly, i'm just hungry.

  16. you always have to out-do everyone else don't you? :) sorry you were sick during your trip, but at least you were sick in IRELAND. I would take that if I could!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Oh my gosh, sounds like the trip has had some bumps! But ... you remind me of Kate M (Duchess) in that first photo!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Ahhhh. Rogue kidneys and every white pants' arch nemesis. I think it could be a book. xoxo

    ReplyDelete
  19. Oh no, Megan...you did not have lady time on your white pants. Well, if it makes you feel better a friend of mine sharted on her white pants. Yes...sharted I tell you! The trip looked amazing from your photos. Hope the kidneys are doing better!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Has anyone told you that you look slightly like Kate Middleton? Love your pics and even though you had some issues, you will always remember this trip!

    ReplyDelete
  31. the photos don't even look like real life they are so amazing. sorry about the kidney, guess real life had to pinch you in someway...

    ReplyDelete
  32. What awesome pictures! But so sad to read about a kidney infection! That is the worst.

    I hope you were able to bring that castle home with yo :)

    ReplyDelete
  33. Quite interesting...loved the last part of your post girl. ;) Not that it's funny. Sorry. And kidney infections suck big time. :( Hope you're feeling better now!???

  34. Love the horse and buggy. Keep the pictures coming and before you know, the kid is yours.

    I'm in amazement you could leave such a stamp there. I'm thinking C was a #2 kinda stamp, and for that, there's no words. (reminds me sorta of the time I had my 'lady time' at my parents, removed a certain something, toilet clogged, had to call my dad (who's very NOT into that) and unclog it for me.)

    I'm thinking you and your friend are a little closer now.

  35. did you know that you always make me laugh out loud? right now i am at work, giggling away in my little corner. undoubtedly getting strange looks.

    ReplyDelete
  36. haha! OH NO! I hope things are better now! I'm sure you still were able to enjoy some of it!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Oh dear. For your sake I really hope it's not the white pants/lady time one :-/ eek.
    I want to eat those whips. And ice cream.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Ouch, Kidneys... are you okay, now??

    And you definitely left your mark lol

    ReplyDelete
  39. You will forever remember Ireland.

    ReplyDelete
  40. welp...left your mark you did. holy smokes! the lady time one kills me. i've never had that problem and can only pray that i never do.
    also, i want to cuddle with those little piglets, they are too much!
    can't wait for the rest of ireland.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Well I love your white blazer/khaki pant ensemble in the first photo! Sorry you had such a rough time! Does it make you feel better that I once had lady time while wearing a jersey knit skirt...on a date? "Oh! I must have sat in something..ha ha haaaa silly me" Hmmm...we didn't last very long...xo -Jet

  42. You're always so cuteeee. Excluding the lady time on white pants part probably! That's the worst. Happened to me freshman year of high school one time in science class. I freakin almost died. I'm getting red just thinking about it!

    ReplyDelete
  43. THOSE PIGLETS!!! I neeeeeed one!

    and i LOVE that outfit in the first picture. you are precious!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Dear me, Meghan! I am sorry! At least you were in one of the most beautiful places ever!

    ReplyDelete
  45. Kind of makes me want to move there! But I must say I dearly want those kakis and when I moved I couldn't figure out how to flush the toilet. It was a button on the toilet. LAME.

    ReplyDelete
  46. AND I really love the blog makeover. LOVE IT!!!

    ReplyDelete
  47. i have said this before but i love reading your blog. you really make me laugh out loud. usually at work. which only makes it a little awkward around the cube farm. esp since my work isn't funny.

  48. Rest in peace, sweet, sweet, white pants. It's always to see them go like that. But Ireland looks like a very good place to visit! And that icecream looks DELISH.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Lady time can be such a b*tch! At least your umbrella is cute! :)

    ReplyDelete
  50. Oooh, I love those giant whip things - didn't know that's what they are called, but I used to spend most of my pocket money on them as a kid!
