A sporting good time

My friends showed me the seats they bought to go see the USA vs. Poland football match while I'm gone, and I'm jealous. . .road trip, fun times. However, they did bring up a great counterpoint: I should see a European football match. Tempting. . .

P.S. - I'm gaunna really miss baseball every night.

Getting closer by the minute

I'm at work right now, 6 days away from being in flight. My whole body is getting jittery, anxious; I am stuck between disbelief and amazement, with a sprinkle of nerves, that I am actually headed to Europe. This post is being typed on my iPhone, which will be similar to the iTouch that I will be posting from during the majority of my trip. . .and the small screen and keyboard isn't as terrible as I thought it would be.

I keep thinking about what work will be like while I'm gone, but amtrying not to. During my last three shifts, though, I keep realizing how shittily understaffed the cafe is going to be while I'm gone. . .and even when I come back.

P.S. - State fair traffic sucks.

You were the first one. . .

Buongiorno to all who have stumbled across this blog, and welcome to the annals of my trip across the strange and foreign lands of Europe.

The Plan:
On September 2nd, I will begin my journey to Europe with Kristi B. to Italy for a month of leisure and culture.  Near the end of the month, she will return home, and I will start leg two of my trip: off alone in a new continent.

This is the record I plan to keep of my thoughts, travels, and experiences, something everyday.  I hope you come back and follow me as I travel the continent!
