My memories start to wander off

Tomorrow I'm leaving for Italy with my mom and my dad and my little sister and this big ball of stress floating around in my stomach that shouldn't be here because this is supposed to be a vacation.  Airports stress me out, and packing stresses me out (I actually managed to forget to pack my pajamas last time), and my parents stress me out.  I remember being miserable the entire time we were in Hawaii a few years back.  Now, whether that was due to the high sand-to-Natasha ratio, or the amount of time spent in the vicinity of my parents, or the week spent in the same room as my sister, I don't know.  But family vacations have never been my favorite things.

But in the meantime, until I get on that plane and pray that it lands where and when it's supposed to, I'm going to watch Shaytards and eventually maybe go to sleep, and then wake up too early and take a shower and get into a car that will deliver me to the airport.

The most exciting part of this for me, I have to say, is the new stamp that I'm going to get on my passport.  Also, the Florence Cathedral.  And the Sistine Chapel.  And all the pasta.  I practically live on pasta. 



He reminds me of my daddy.

On my way back home

Here's a recap of last night:  went to bed at midnight, woke up at 2, got out of bed at 3, went back to bed, read for an hour, finally got up at 4 am, went to the airport, went out to breakfast with mom at 6, went back to bed at 6:30 and slept till noon. 

Tonight's going to be the same, I can feel it.  I can't force myself to go to bed because I don't have anything to do tomorrow, or the day after, or the day after.  That's my least favorite part of summer, all this sitting around, acting like a vegetable.  All I did today after I woke up at noon was drive my mom on all her errands.  At least driving's getting easier.  But changing lanes is beyond terrifying.

Maybe I should go to the library tomorrow, find something to read.  Then instead of watching "The OC" and "Friday Night Lights" I can read something besides The Princess Diaries and Pride and Prejudice again.  God, I'm such a sap. 

And I failed the 30 day challenge.  I'm a sap who's spending her summer rotting away and can't even finish a stupid 30 day challenge.
