should have known better...

one bitten twice shy friends.

today is the feast of the ascension so the random thursday off. love the religious folks. no one works so most people stay home or wander around town. starbucks is of course open but i have coffee and internet and home.

today i woke up early and walked over finally to the 'three country corner' where i stood in germany france and switzerland. this was a 20 minute walk from my house.

i had a dream the other night that my friend dave sent me a book in the mail and in the pack it was a book he gave me before i left DC.
i also dreamed that corey's comments on his blog were in the hundreds and mostly from his mom about squirrels that were given valium.

i am pretty broke. okay not broke but really watching my pennies for my trip in which i have to change my francs to pounds and to euro.

i have written to some people on couch surfing to see about staying with someone in naples....i think the train rides home will not be super expensive. i think once i get back to milan i can use my swiss half tax card to get a 40 franc fare back to basel.

next trip after this i wish to go to paris. it's only 80 francs round trip.

i also have to save to get a ticket back here from my trip to DC in october!

i am going to zurich this weekend again and will go to Baden switzerland where there are some hot springs. it is also a very old town. probably costs 5 francs with my card to get there. i love this card.

today i plan on gluing my art and then hopefully watching frost/nixon

goal: not to spend hardly any money in the next few days. i leave thursday night!

i am so so so excited. i think winter will be in england this weekend which is odd but not surprising as he has been planning a european trip for starbucks anyhow.

just funny that we'll both be in england...

okay. not much to update. the weather is getting nice and warm. i think i have a bit of allergies but not too bad. chris and steph are sending me rosetta stoned for german so i hope maybe this will help too. the berlitz is really good with the work book....meesh just has to actually USE it more!

i am excited to get my pack from the family! i hear that my rain boots might be in there....ooh and tons of ibuprofen!

time for more coffee and gluing!

have a good thursday my peeps!
