Update: November 22nd

It's hard to say exactly when it happened, but sometime mid july 20 Windsor Road was withdrawn from the market. It's taken me months to accept the fact that I may (emphasis on the may) never actually own it.
While feeling somewhat defeated, I got on with life. I traveled...to spain for a week. I restarted college. I finally obtained a healthy balance between work and play. Things were going well. my legs recovered after the quarry incident. I even had a few successful dates not involving scaling rock. In all honesty, things have probably never been better.
And then...last night...I had one of those ridiculously vivid dreams in which I won the euro millions. Like those dreams that are so real that your just appalled to wake up.
Now I know, and am taking it as a sign, that I am not to give up until I own 20 Windsor Road.

Any ideas? me neither.

Update: June 10th

Whilst 20 Windsor Road remains on the market the harsh truth has hit me that I possibly, may not, recieve 2.5 million one euro donations in time. I've been participating in certain activities to distract me from the depression of never owning 20 Windsor Road.
Firstly, I went on a date. Well actually a 2nd date. I went rock-climbing. Things were going very well, as i sat next to a torso baring soldier on the edge of a quarry in Killiney. The views were the greatest I've ever seen of Dublin bay. As i sat there absoring both beautiful sights it occured to me that i could get used to this. There had been no previous spark between I and the soldier but after the 2nd date, who knew? things felt like they were picking up. Hopeful and trusting in my budding new relationship I got eqipped with a harness, very unflattering but at this stage I felt it was perhaps okay if soldier saw the true akward Cassie Delaney. I attempted to climb A QUARRY. a flat wall of solid rock on a swealtering hot day. I never led soldier to believe i was a successful climber. In fact, I distinctly informed soldier that at times my spaghetti arms lack the strength to opens doors, let alone hoist me up A QUARRY. But alas, like a fool, i tried. Honestly, I got about 3/4 of the way up THE QUARRY and died a little. I couldnt even feel my arms. I fell. I shouted up to soldier that I had enjoyed my experience but felt it was time to absail back down. I rock at this. I got to the bottom again and walked up to the top of the climb, which in itself is no walk in the park. It took a fair while, wrestling with bushels and twigs and strange foreigners. I finally returned to soldier, bleeding and scratched, red faced and out of breathe but proud that i had climbed three quaters of a quarry. I was becoming a new person, trying things i never before dreamed of, completing goals i never dreamed possible, enjoying dating people with completely different interests. I bid adue to soldier and hobbled back to my car, taking my time as the climb had me walking suspiciously like John Wayne. I climbed a quarry.

I never heard from soldier again.
Phased out because i was not a sufficiently successful climber.
A QUARRY!
apparently I DON'T have the full package, personality and charm just wont do unless you can shimmey up a wall of solid rock.
Cheers, soldier.

SO my first attempt at enjoying my summer without 20 windsor road has left me accutely aware of the fact that I am single, not attractive to soldiers and still living with mammy and daddy.
Sarah and I have started a book club. I wonder how this one will pan out.

My everest

Love,
John Wayne (Cassie)

Idea #6: May 20th

We trade. Fair and square. One euro/yen/pound for an invite to my house warming. It could be better than a Corey Delaney swaray.

Why my first novel shall read Suck on This Gearoid

WE should have known it was going to be an epic night when it started by us being kidnapped by dublin bus and a run away driver who was pissed off after finding out he had lost his job because of the cut backs. Granted Neil and i saved ourselves by getting off at Dame street, but luckily freedom was not tainted by the loss of the rest of the crew. After a brief heart to heart with the crying fat woman, we were reunited in 21s. Funny enough, the cocktails we had previously decided to be our group favourite were on special at 5 euro all night (sex on the beach? yes please) 5 or 6 cocktails later who did we meet sure only COURTNEY LOVE outside in the smokin area. now even though didnt i pure compliment her, she was a pure bitch totally unsound like and didnt she go and steal my ferosh hat. As i began to get emotional we found Sheilas non gay friend Paul who vowed to find my hat and return it to me. Sheila and i, naturally, concluded that Courtney Love must be in the VIP area soo didnt we just walk in anyway. WELL, that didnt go down well at all, but i managed to take sheila away before she was seriously hopped on by a balding man or very butch woman. We then bumped into some writer who challenged me to a write off which i totally accepted because "not blowin my own trumpet like man, sure im like better than hemmingway" (i am not even close). After my ferosh hat had met the head of EVERYONE in 21s we decided to head to maccy d's. Enter Gearoid a young enthusiatic emigrant of Wexford with big eyes and even bigger dreams. After a turbulant start to a friendship "FYI gearoid, the way to my heart is 6 chciken nuggets" Gearoid blatantly BELITTLED my writing ability and doubted the success of my first novel which in my view "is totally in the bag man". So, a little worse for wear, offended and with quite a large scratch on my arm here i am, inspired. Today i begin my novel. Suck.On.This.Gearoid.

Idea #4: May 13th

Funny story. SO perhaps it's because Adams website was fresh in my mind but coincidently I had my own dream in which i met the man (or men) of my dreams. I'm subsequently about to start my own website. www.themenofmydreams.com. If you recognise any of the following please contact me. 





Small, quite rotund and had a hearty laugh.


Tall and quawky. Quite funny though. not that good looking but enjoyable company none the less. 

Odd accent and seemed a bit drunk but phwoar...

Like I said, if you recognise any of em, just holla. 

Au revoir simone
