Countdown: 7 days.

Dear Reader,
This being my first official posting, i would like to first and foremost welcome you to the wonderful (albeit slightly crazy) world of Eliza's brain. Here you will be able to track my days in Italy and the many adventures that are sure to ensue (told by yours truly, of course). My countdown is rapidly diminishing, a thought that is both exciting beyond belief as well as nerve-wrecking, panic-inducing, and yes, slightly scary. Never fear though, I shall prevail. To quote Hitler, "Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live." Okay not really, but you get the idea. Unfortunately, I am not nearly close to being ready for this trip and what's worse, I have no intention of doing anything about it. While my mother productively searched flight schedules, made hotel arrangements, planned out weekends, and prepared other details of her ten day visit to Italy in mid-July, I spent the majority of my day sleeping on the couch. I tell you, the life of an aspiring dictator and world-conqueror is hard work.

  1. As a fellow dictator of the lush and tropical Southern California region, I can assure you that being a world-conqueror is difficult, but for those as talented as you or me, it is but child's play. Ha. I eagerly await accounts of your conquest of, to put it fondly, "The Boot".
