*cough!cough!*

Since Sunday night/ Monday morning till now...Wednesday night (in ROME!8D) I think I have slept a TOTAL of...6 broken-up hours. Even with my mom's Elavil to help, I could not sleep for anything on the plane from Newark to Rome.

Oh, and btw...I am sick. A LOT sick. Hoping the amoxicillan kicks in by toimorrow...I have a strange fear that I will have èpneumonia soon if this doesnùt clear out.

I have lots to say, as >I always do, but I am just too beat. I all but walked into the Vatican city today looking for dinner with my roommate, Melissa, who is pretty cool. I am almost certain that I will return to the Land-0-Cleves with a mixed Italian-Southern accent. lol

<at any rate, I am alive, and <i apologize to everyone for any typos...the keyboard is really weird here, and my eyes aren't focusing at all. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who helped me get here...I could never have gotten this far without you. OK, early day tomorrow...90+ degrees...not-humid my arse!8P More soon enough...
