dream apartment update
The resident of my dream apartment came in to speak with my boss (who was elsewhere today) about breaking her lease on August 31st. I was busy so I only could speak with her for just a bit. I very briefly mentioned how I wanted to move in. Mid-September’s reallyreally early. I just don’t…
Italian Experiences and Recent Thoughts
This morning I visited Panera to have a cappuccino (in an actual mug!) and a chocolate pastry. I thoroughly enjoyed them while reading some of the latest Budget Travel in this cafe setting.

the search is on
I am considering replacing my comforter. My current comforter set is only a couple years old, but, still, it’s time for a change.

fresh flowers, the giveaway winner, and yet another trip!
This week I decided to pick up a big bouquet of flowers made of different varieties. I figured I would be a natural at arranging them in a vase because I am kinda artsy …but I guessed wrong. I think that there are just too many colors. They’re still beautiful, but I certainly think I have a…
