ignore the rambling, I’m kind of tired.

"Yeah so I know I’m like totally behind on my Italy updates. I only made it to Day 2 so far. I’ll get there.. just be patient! I need to savor it and draw it out as long as possible. I’m still trying to get back into the insane swing of things with work and my [...]"

Italy: Day 2

May 25, 2006

"Monday was our first full day in Italy. We went to bed early the night before so we’d be recovered from our flights there and ready to go! Our morning started with a guided tour of the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. We got little headsets so that we could listen to our guide and still [...]"

Italy: Day 1, Addendum

"I forgot one good story from our Day 1 adventure. Remember the screw? It’s officially gone. I went into the bathroom at JFK airport before our flight to take out my contacts and put on my glasses. When I took my glasses out of their case, I noticed the screw was missing. I smiled of course. Then [...]"

Italy: Day 1

May 24, 2006

"We left for Italy on Saturday (May 13) from Pittsburgh. We flew to New York’s JFK airport, where we had a 4 hour layover- fun! Especially since the airport hadn’t turned on the A/C yet so it was nice and steamy. We hung out in a bar and ate sandwiches and waited until it was [...]"

"argh. Without going into too much detail so as not to get myself into trouble, one of my close friends at work was fired today. I come back from vacation to that! And it was for really no good reason… just a crappy, crappy situation. She’s doing okay though and thinks it might be for [...]"

home again

May 22, 2006

"We’re ba-ack! We had an amazingly fantastic week in Italy. While we were there, I kept thinking about how I would write about everything here… and really, I can’t. The only way I can try to do justice to the trip is by showing you pictures (still working on that) and sharing tidbits from the week, [...]"

arrivederci!

May 12, 2006

"I am officially on vacation. I have my vacation messages on my email, at work and at home. I am pretty much packed, except for the last minute things in the morning. We even have time in the morning to relax, since we don’t have to leave for the airport until around 11AM- so I can [...]"

dragging

"Forty-five minutes of work left. Today was looooooooong. And I have not yet packed a single, solitary thing. EEK! More posts like this: good points October 26, 2006 another day, another sleepless night.

let’s all gather for story time, shall we?

May 10, 2006

"Instead of blogging about the fact that I cried on my way home from work yesterday, and instead of blogging about how I am in dire need of a break from EVERYTHING and it’s a damn good thing I leave for Rome in 3 days, and instead of blogging about how I feel like the [...]"

my brain needs a break

May 09, 2006

"One of the funny things about web programming is that I am learning how my mind works. For example, late at night (late being like 9pm.. yeah I know I’m a WILD WOMAN) after I’ve been coding all day, and I’m still coding away for my ‘second job‘, my brain can start playing tricks on me. [...]"

going through the motions

May 06, 2006

"You know it’s been a while since you’ve posted in your blog when you can’t even remember what you posted about last and you have to check first. So yeah. Still busy and insane and COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS until we leave for Italy (just seven to go!) This week was ridiculous, I won’t even go [...]"
