due (Two)

I realized that my writing may come across as a touch ambivalent to some of you who don't know me so well.

That being said, I can't get through my Rick Steves' Audio tour of Italy fast enough. Really! I'm that excited! I'm not entirely sure how my head hasn't yet exploded into a fiery ball of useless celebrity trivia.

...And to address another quite pertinent question, why should you read my blog? I'm not ACTUALLY going to leave for Italy for another 3 1/2 weeks.

I have no witty, sarcastic answer for that, actually. If you're already reading this, then keep on keepin' on, do your thang, etc... It's because of my pointless, shoddily put-together stories and storylines and driveling commentary that you are coming back for more, isn't it? I knew it. Then keep reading, there is more pointless rambling coming your way.

I was thinking the other day (mainly out loud, and to my mother) that since graduate school will be so expensive and take forever, etc...I should just give up any sort of career path and get a travel show.(Sidenote: Since I'm just so amazing at life in general, I know that it will be very easy to just, you know...GET your own TV show. These things happen. Whatever.) I could go around and look specifically at museums and art/architecture/operas/plays/eat delicious food I don't have to pay for...that kind of thing. However-and this poses a bit of a problem- I greatly enjoy watching foodie travel shows; especially Anthony Bourdain : No Reservations, where he basically drinks, finds a random person from a town, has more drinks, dines, even more drinks with them, swears a lot, and makes fun of other people. The problem isn't that I enjoy watching it, it's that drinking copious amounts of alcohol, swearing like a sailor, and fine art don't necessarily always go together.

Necessarily. I could figure something out, right?

Anyway, would you watch my show? Any thoughts? I'd like to hear them-let me know what you think in the comments box.

It's still crappy outside here-
