I'm baaaaaaack!!

Itinerary, sort of:

Dec. 22nd: took Greyhound to the Boston airport. Arrived 10 mins late for the checkin deadline because the bus was an hour late, and wasn't allowed to check in even though I could have made it. Spent the night in a hotel in Boston.
Dec. 23rd: get on the plane this time. Fly to Amsterdam.
Dec. 24th: chill out in Amsterdam all morning (highly recommended; lots of pot and coffee, good art, awesome city and everyone speaks good English). Fly to Vienna to meet my family and stay in an apartment with them for Christmas.
Dec. 28th: change apartments.
Dec. 29th: fly to Sicily, spend a week moving from hotel to hotel based on crappy directions in a guidebook and without bothering to buy a map. Have a blast talking to cute little kids and trying to order meals in Italian. Mostly successful, except for the time Adrian ended up with fruit salad covered in raw shrimp and grated chocolate. That was bad.
Jan. 6th fly to Seattle, hang out and do nothing for 2 weeks
Jan. 21st fly to Minneapolis
Jan. 29th fly back to MA

I probably already ranted about that. I'm too lazy to check. If I wasn't a complete dumbass I'd be posting you pretty pictures of Europe, but naturally I left all the files on the computer in Seattle.

classes start on Monday. boy oh boy.
