V-Day rundown / Europe 2009
It has been too long, folks. What’s keeping me from my keyboard? I’m pretty sure it’s the lack of a desk, here in Buffalo. Sitting on the floor with a keyboard on one leg and a mouse on the other is miserable… especially if your legs fall asleep as quickly as mine. 
Justin had to work on Valentine’s Day, but we managed to catch a movie late that night, which was really nice. I’m on a restrictive buckle-down diet, so going to dinner would have been a no-no. I’m happy I got to spend the holiday with him, because we didn’t spend Christmas or New Year’s Together, and I was starting to feel boyfriend-less.
The even more exciting part of this entry (although it might be a bit premature?) is what Justin and I keep high-fiving about: EUROPE 2009, muthafucka! Justin, myself, Chris (Justin’s childhood friend) and his girlfriend, Brandee, are planning a 1-month trip across Europe next summer, together. We’re all thrilled, but I think I’m definitely most hyper about this. It is at least 16 months away and I am already staring at my atlas and routing an itinerary and outlining how much this would cost. I FUCKING LOVE TO TRAVEL!
Some of you have been my friend, affiliate, or reader for a long time, so you might remember that Justin and I traveled to Barcelona, Spain in the summer of 2005. However, it was more of a vacation (not too much tourist stuff) and we’d like to go back to Europe and see other countries and travel by train and sleep in crappy hostels instead of 4 star hotels. In Barcelona, we were only kids. I was 18 and he was 19, and I don’t think we were very smart when it came to spending, planning, or transportation for those 2 weeks. My excuse is that we had just recently met in-person at the time, so we were obsessed with each other, and didn’t pay enough attention to our lovely surroundings. Anyway, more to come on this topic in about a year, haha.

Ooh, that sounds amazing! I’m hoping to be able to do a load of travelling once I’ve finished uni, which is wayyy in the future, but it doesn’t stop me planning it already xD
Glad you had a nice Valentines Day

Oh, exciting! Take me with you. I always tried to plan a trip to Europe with some of my friends, but it never ended up happening because we all suck at saving money. :( I’m excited to hear about this in the future, though!

Sorry that your lacking a desk, funnily enough i can relate to the conundrum, but i have a laptop, so it’s not as much of a problem.
Wow, a European trip would be so amazing though :)
