Suffice it to say that things have been hectic. I leave for Prague tomorrow evening; there for a week, then on to Budapest for another week. This is a study abroad program for school. It's going to be great; will have laptop with me, so theoretically can post to the old COP. But only if you are really nice. And say pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!!! Then I will think about it. Below, in concise bullet form, are some of the things that have been going on since we last danced:
- My boss fucking quit. With -1 day notice. Very likely so that she would not have to pay back her sign-on bonus. Classy and oh so very ethical.
- I got poison oak. In lots of places, but the moneymakers were my ASS and eyelids.
- Didn't get my US passport back from renewal until YESTERDAY. Many tears have been shed and many pants have been shat.
- In addition to getting ready to be out of the office for 2 weeks and scrambling to recover from boss' failure to return from maternity leave, I have had class in prep for this study abroad from 5-9pm every night this week
I am worn and wrinkled but pushing on. By this time tomorrow, I'll be. . . well, I'll be packing most likely. But then a few hours after that, hopefully sitting on a plane with a cocktail. Hmm, won't that be nice!
Kisses, darlings--what would you like me to bring back for you???

E! I went to Budapest and Pargue a year a half ago. Am sitting here in a hotel room in Florida with my friend who was living in Budapest. We recommend you go to the Parliament, Margret Island, House of Terror (if you can stomach that sort of thing) and the Turkish baths for sure. I enjoyed seeing an American movie with foreign subtitles. Also don't miss the castle in Prague and drink giant beers so every time you have to pee just go get another one. Viscious cycle. Am so jealous have a blast!
