Vado in Italia!!


Sorry to my two, maybe three readers for going m.i.a. recently. It’s been a busy week for me; finishing up work, packing, moving, pretending to unpack, looking at all my shit, thinking about unpacking, wishing I didn’t have to unpack, moving boxes around in hopes that they will eventually unpack themselves…you know the drill. It’s hard work and such a brainless and mind numbing activity that I’m not sure I will be equipped to write anything worth reading for at least a few weeks. The good news is that I leave for Italy in the morning; so hopefully, the brain cells I’ve neglected in the past week will be sufficiently reinvigorated…that is, unless the much anticipated consumption of copious amounts of wine finishes them off. Il vino mi piace! (The latter being the more likely of the two possible results.) For those of you who wish you could fit into my suitcase, or if you actually have any interest in my travels, I will be flying into Milano, continuing onto Cinque Terre (beach!!). We will then spend some time in Florence, Tuscany and the Chianti region and will finish in Roma! I foresee having many humorous antic-dotes from my travels...and hell, if I don't, I'll make some up; so expect some updates upon my return (that is if I even make it back to the States...maybe I'll just stay. I am unemployed after all...)

Now for your listening pleasure I bring you Senor Renato Carosone...
