Wedgie On Tour
Love Many, Trust Few, Always Paddle Your Own Canoe
#WedgieOnTour
Wedgie On Tour is a wild ride from Dublin to Dunsmuir, collecting tales through airports and backroads, with plenty of quirky characters along the way. What began as a simple travel diary has transformed into a mash-up of adventures, cultural rants, and “Did that really just happen?” moments. Here, we mix travel fun, humor, and community stories with a dash of political spice, proving that even the most absurd headlines can make for great coffee chat. So buckle up for a journey where we laugh, raise eyebrows, and remind ourselves that loving fiercely and demanding better can go hand in hand!

#TBT to the night I willingly walked into a culinary war crime.
She wanted comfort food, so naturally my brain went, “What did Mom feed us growing up?” And then… like a Vietnam flashback… creamed corn.

Monday Madness Vet Runs, Family Appointments, and a Rough Start to the Week
Dog to the animal clinic by 8. Mom to the doctor by 10. Physio by 11:15. Waiting on a call about the dog. Manchester United playing at the weekend like they’ve been assembled from spare patio furniture. The headlines lurking out there somewhere, probably holding a folding chair.

AMSTERDAM: THE 24‑HOUR MAYBE
Two aging chaos agents. One upside‑down map. Infinite snacks. We’re taking our feral timeline to Amsterdam — and anyone’s welcome to join. There are easier ways to celebrate turning 60, but none of them involve boarding a plane you’ll regret halfway through the boarding process. So here we are: one Ballyfermot native, one American import, both now legally old enough to make terrible choices internationally. Thirty years of friendship. Eighteen years of shared madness in Chesh

**🚗💥 The No‑Show That Wasn’t: A 130‑Mile Odyssey Through Corporate Nonsense
There are customer service mishaps… and then there’s driving 130 miles for a confirmed appointment only to be told it can’t be done, getting marked as a “no‑show” for the appointment you were physically standing in, and waiting over a month for a corporate response that spells your name wrong and tells you to “contact the store.”
This is not a Karen story.
This is a story about doing everything right and still getting swallowed by the black hole of corporate shrug energy.

THE WEIGHT YOU CAN'T NAME.
There’s a kind of grief that doesn’t make noise. It just sits behind your ribs and waits for the next moment you’re alone.

CALL ME IF, PART TWO: WHEN “FAMILY” MEANS DRAWING A LINE
After the first post went up, I got two comments that stuck with me. One said, “Thank you.” The other asked for part two. And I’ve been sitting with both.

Why “Call Me If You Need Anything” Isn’t Help
Why Caregivers Don’t Ask

From PCT Dreams to World Cup Cheers: A Journey from Trails to Goals
Change happens fast. One moment, you’re lacing up your boots for a partial hike on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT), dreaming of the quiet wilderness from Soda Creek northward. The next, you’re booking flights to Los Angeles, trading trail maps for stadium seats at the World Cup. Life has a way of surprising us, and this year, my plans took a sharp turn from rugged trails to roaring crowds.

HOW FAR IS TOO FAR? A WEDGIE‑ON‑TOUR RANT ABOUT POWER, NONSENSE & HISTORY YELLING “HELLO???”
There comes a moment in every nation’s life when the collective population pauses mid‑Target‑Starbucks sip and goes:
“Hold on… is this normal? Or are we in the prequel to a documentary no one wants to star in?”
