Rain rain go away and take the wind with you.

Today I slept really late (shocking I know). But it was also really really gross out. After trying to video chat with my parents and Dylan multiple times (and failing of course) I decided it was time to go to the gym. I ventured out in the awful weather to the gym and quickly regretted it. It was beyond windy out and the rain just kept coming down. I made it to the gym though and made it back to my apartment where my frustration with my internet continued. We barely get any service in our apartments. We have complained to our landlord but it hasn't done much. The other people in various other apartments around Galway seem to be having a similar problem.

I have yet to go out to dinner so my two roommates, Meredith and Krissy, along with our friend Megan decided to try a place called Couch Potatoes. It was so good. I had heard that it was delicious and have been wanting to go since I got to Galway. I pass it everyday on my walk to school and after I posted my first set of pictures to Facebook Devin commented telling me to try Couch Potatoes if it was still there. Boy am I glad I listened! At Couch Potatoes the menu is basically only potatoes (shocking from the name of the restaurant). They place various ingredients into the baked potato. I got chicken and cheese on my potato so it was a baked potato filled with chicken and topped with cheese. SO YUMMY!! I was going to be more adventurous and go for an Italian type of baked potato that is filled with chicken, cheese, and tomato sauce but decided to play it safe. I will have to have the Italian potato next time I go. Mom and Dad I cannot wait to take you here.

After dinner it was still raining and we decided to watch a movie and hang out. It wasn't until abut 10p.m. that we decided we wanted to actually go out so we finished watching the movie and headed out. We went to a place called Coyotes which mainly has a younger crowd. It was a blast.
