it's coming to the end of my european vacation. sad. face. sort of. while it was a good time being out here and doing different things, i didn't do a TON of things that i wouldn't be able to do at home. and really doing these things and experiencing these things is really about the company you're with and sharing these moments with them. not that i didn't (mostly) enjoy the company i had - but these aren't my good friends, just people i met on this trip. so i had a good time, scratch that, a GREAT time. but i did miss you. sort of. :P in the sense that i wish you were here with me, not me with you.

either way, this last week or so has been kind of a whirlwind. since after st. patrick's day, i've been all around ireland, going to the south and west coasts, went to scotland, and now i'm in paris. i got to run around and drink wine and have desserts underneath the glow of the eiffel tower and it was awesome. sitting in the metro on the way up to the tower, i was like "oh, it's like the one in vegas." walking up to it actually, was inspiring. scotland was very pretty, and my new goal is to find an irish boyfriend so he can take me picnicking in the burren and the cliffs of moher, and then i've found the castle that sits on a lake that i'm getting married at. doesn't have to be an irish man for that, but i guess it makes the most sense because i wouldn't fly all the way over there to get married to someone who wasn't irish.... or would i?

i've taken over 1000 pictures or so, most of them i'll probably need to filter out. had more jameson and beer and beef stew and sausages than ever, and my clothes seriously need a washing, and i desperately need a haircut. oh yea, and then i have to find a source of income because my bank account is probably drained and my credit card bill is going to be ri.di.cul.ous. but it was worth it.

see you kids soon.
