I'm leaving for Europe on the 5th! Woohoo! I got a brand-new camera (because some dickhole took my bag in Salem) and it's gonna be SO AWESOME and I'm going to BELGIUM and PARIS and AMSTERDAM and no my mom will not let me buy a space cake while we're there. I am hoping to try some absinthe though. I hope the kids my sister is nanny-ing aren't too bothersome and that we don't have to be around them too much. I can't wait to see the Paris catacombs!!

Then after we get home I'm going on a 45 mile-a-day bike trip around the DC area, so I'm not going to be available for like, 17 days or so. I hope the bike trip is awesome too and that my butt won't hurt like it did the last time I biked 45 miles(Wednesday).
