Hi, I'm here to brush the cobwebs off this thing.

You're probably a little fed up with me at this point.
I mean, all I do is promise that I'll post this and that, and that I'll be better about actually blogging once in a while, but in the meantime I just look lazy because I haven't accomplished a single thing (blog-wise, that is).

The truth is... I always get kind of scared by my own absence, as I may have mentioned before, because I'm not sure how warm my welcome back to the internet will be. Everytime it's longer and longer in between posts. And to be completely honest, I'm not even sure how many people read this anymore. If you do though, you are AWESOME.

I've been in Italy for the past 11 days, and then in bed for another 2, haha. I'm pretty jetlagged right now, going to bed at 7:30 sharp (not voluntarily) and waking up anywhere from 2:30 am to 5 am. So I think it goes without saying that I'm a little mixed up this week, hahaha :)

I am so amazed that I had the opportunity to go to Rome, Pompeii, Florence, Venice, Verona and Milan surrounded by friends and eating like 6 gelato a day. I saw so many incredible sights that it almost feels like a dream. I'm so happy that I went, and although I sorely missed all my loved ones near the end there, it was a completely mind-blowing experience and it was probably one of the best experiences of my life.

So nerds, if you're still along for the ride, there really is more coming and I'm so grateful to you that you're sticking around. If you're not, well...thanks for playing along and you will be missed.

LET'S GET THIS FREAKSHOW ON THE ROAD! :)
