The Pyramids

I would just like to re-iterate the innate divinity of the breakfast meal. Croissants with my own homemade marmalade and pain au chocolat have got me feeling like I could just conquer the world!

I am so jealous of my friend Betsy. She just booked a week’s vacation in Egypt for 7 days. Can you believe that something like that only costs 600 or 700€? Maybe you can all understand, then why I don’t plan on going back to America in August. I want to go somewhere more exotic. I finally have the financial stability to do it, and, because i live in Europe, it is totally financially possible. I am thinking Iceland, Norway, or some little town in England somewhere. Actually, because I have 6-7 weeks of paid vacation, I think I might do 2 different vacations—one somewhere exotic like Nepal and then 10 days in England or something. We’ll see. I’m just busy dreaming at the moment.

I had always envisioned being in a relationship with someone as independent as I am. For the first 2 years of our relationship, though, I think that I was too insecure to really do without Chris. I was “clingy”, I guess one would say. I had always hoped that I would meet someone with whom I could be in love, yet be able to take separate vacations at times. I need a lot of personal space to let my ideas grow. So, maybe I’ll go to Tibet without Chris, but spend the time in England together.

Freedom!!!
