Today ended up being a pretty good day. I ended up heading out to pick up a few things around my usual going out time (5pm). I wanted to pick up a magazine for my trip which was definitely a treat as the Cosmo I bought cost 10.10euros. LOL can you believe it? Wow can they jack the prices up on things when they want to.
I finally decided to go and make my purse purchase today. I just couldn't not get it. I thought about it for 5 days and decided that yes, I needed this purse/bag. I am calling it a bag because it is huge, but I so love it! I can't wait to use it. :) After my big purchase I was just in such a good mood and I am not even sure why. Maybe it was because it wasn't overly hot out today. It was overcast and the wind made for a nice breeze, maybe it was my upcoming trip or maybe it was just my new bag. I guess we will never know.
So I decided to keep walking around for a bit and I ended up walking a few streets that I had only been down a few times. I stopped and went into a church because I heard organ music playing. It was small but the art work inside was beautiful and then to hear the organ playing as well...well it was very uplifting.
I guess this is the part where I should tell you all that I have finally started walking with my head up looking ahead of me, instead of watching where I walk (mind you this is still a good idea sometimes). So as I was walking down one of the streets head held high, I was just about to take another step forward and all of a sudden a pigeon came flying out from under my foot. LOL I didn't even notice it there and was about 1 inch from stepping on it. It went crazy on me flapping its wings and yelling at me. I was stunned for a bit and then just started laughing. I'm sure the other people in the street thought I was crazy, laughing to myself but I didn't care, It was funny.
I decided to go into the lush store they have here just to look around and as I walked in one of the sales reps said ciao to me. I said ciao back and continued to wander. He then came up to me and rattled of something in Italian which I can only guess to be Can I help you with something, when I said Oh, I'm sorry, I don't speak Italian. He then gave me a great compliment and said that he was sorry but I looked Italian to him. YEAH! Does that mean I am fitting/blending in? He spoke english a bit though so we talked for a few minutes and then I headed on my way, but I thought that was totally cool.
So, it is already after 2am and I am still not in bed yet. I had every intentions of going to bed kinda early tonight but would you believe that I haven't packed yet for my trip tomorrow? I know...shocking! lol seriously, I don't think my procrastination habits are ever going to change. I always find a different excuse why I can put it off just a little while longer. Anyway, I really should at least clear off my bed (meaning my attempt to pack) and get some sleep. I am soooo excited about my trip tomorrow! I am not sure how much internet service I will have when I am gone but still, email me everyone. I'm taking my laptop with me, just in case. :)
Temp high: I actually have no idea
