Gateway to Hell
This is a photo taken at St. Audoen’s church where the famous 40 steps are located. We visited this place the evening before during the Dublin Ghost Bus Tour the and walked back the next day to take some pictures. While these are not the famous “40 steps” I think it is one of the the passageways between the interior of Medieval Dublin to the area known as ‘Hell’. To give you some context about Dublin’s ‘Hell’ and how cool this area is...

It is pretty much the only spot I will sing one song, usually near the end of the night once I have a bit of liquid courage. Since it was a Friday I did not have much time to really get ready. I only ran home for about...

Every now and then I like to give myself a mini challenge where I force myself to wear something that has been languishing in my closet. You see this particular dress is actually much longer and unfortunately when I wear it at its full length I feel awkward. I just feel that the proportions are all off for me. So, after playing with it for a bit I remember seeing Audi do some amazing things with shifting dresses around and securing them with belts. I thought what the hell and after a few...
