Not to get too California about it, but this week has been a pretty huge lesson on how you can't ever get what you want unless go out and get it, or at least ask for it...

Anyway, I'm going on a dream vacation soon, in three weeks (!) to be precise.

I'll be jetting first to Berlin to visit Constanze and Ulrich and Josephine; then via train to Paris to hang with Erika for four days or so, and from there the two of us will find some sort of glamorous high-speed train to take us to Bonn, where we'll hang out with our parents for a few days.
I'm still sort of in shock about the whole idea. It's been far too long since I've gone on any kind of vacation at all, and this new plan is just too crazy. whee!

I'll steal an idea from Neille:
if you want a postcard, email me your mailing address, and I'll see what I can do.
