Heeeeeeeeeere I go again!

Spent my last night in America at Kelley's house and we randomly discovered it was the anniversary of the birth of our love!  So I ate a lot of chocolate, sang along to my iTunes loudly as possible for a long time, and generally annoyed her and her roommates.  Then Kelley and I burst into an unexpected dance party to Song for a Lunatic and No Good Deed, which is a really strange combination but hey, it's my iTunes.  Then I coerced her into watching Amadeus with me.



I hadn't seen the movie since all this MOR stuff started happening to me, and it was a lot of fun to watch it and randomly be like "Et pourtant... sa musique est sublime..." We laughed at Salieri's obsession with food (it's actually hilarious if you notice how often he's eating and/or giving other people something to eat--he's like Lupin.  We decided we needed to go visit Salieri and get some chocolate) and at that big wobbly fat Italian guy's facial expressions and at the way Constanze never uses contractions.  Except you should never START the director's cut of Amadeus late at night, because by the time you get to that epic last scene you're having a lot of trouble staying awake.  Still.  Fantastic movie.  One of my top five for sure, costumery fail aside.



Anyway! I booked today's flight out of NC and into New York that's quite early in the morning, meaning I'm going to have an eight hour layover at JFK.  TOTALLY WORTH IT.  I will take NO CHANCES this time and I WILL NEVER EVER EVER spend the night at the JFK baggage claim EVER AGAIN.  I also don't want to take an unplanned vacation to Iceland please.



So!  Hopefully next time you hear from me it'll be from my little yellow garret room in the suburbs of Paris and not stranded in an airport somewhere weeping. :D

JUST FOR THE RECORD, my love for you blossomed LONG before January 18... but it at last became a MUTUAL love on that day. :P
Nonetheless, it was a LOVELY anniversary. :) Next year we should go to Coney Island or something. haha

You're probably full of travel stories to tell me. It sounds like you've been through alot of adventures or shall I call misadventures? to last a life time lol. I'd love to hear about your trip to Iceland one days. Do you live in Paris?

I live in Paris this year because I'm spending my senior year abroad. The Iceland thing was basically a small disaster in late December wherein a tiny amount of snow in Paris made them shut down Charles de Gaulle on the day I was supposed to fly home, so the next day Icelandair came to get us but couldn't take us all the way back to the States. They ended up putting us all up in a Hilton for three days, free meals included! It would have been so cool if it hadn't been so stressful. And if I'd had a coat.

Oh you lucky person. I wish I could trade places with you I am very jealous! I'd love to live there some day, the atmosphere, culture and people are all lovely and very enticing! Yikes! I remember seeing that on tv, was so glad the weather was okay when we were there. It's nice that put you in such a great hotel, and took real good care of you. But I know what you mean about it being cool if it not been stressful!
