birthday present to myself


Yesterday, while following my usual pattern of internet wandering, I stumbled upon an incredibly inexpensive plane ticket to Paris. Considering there were only four remaining seats on the plane, plus my inexplicably spontaneous nature, I bought one. I have wanted to see Paris for, primarily, my entire life. I am going to Paris! 
Also, I've been having dreams, recently, about Rome (my mother and I went when I was ten and both feel an intense connection to the city).

Since I'll already be in Paris, why not take the train through the French and Italian countryside? I am going to Rome! 

Of course, I'm always recruiting people to come with me on my adventures: Lisi, Ellie and my mom are all candidates, but I am heavily considering going by myself.
