Red Eyes

It’s been a month to the day since I landed in France, and I haven’t updated at all.  (See? I told you I suck at these things!)  My only excuse is that I’ve been busy living life instead of writing about it.  I’m trying to catch up as quickly as I can, but until that happens, posts will probably be longer with less detail.  Unless something extraordinary happens that warrants mucho detail.  I know the first month is the most important, and that’s why I want to still write about it even though the info is old. Anyways, let’s pick up where we left off, shall we?

Red Eyes

For some reasons unknown, I could not comprehend that it was so late in September that I would be leaving soon, and so I kept pushing off everything I needed to accomplish: namely calling my credit card companies, talking to my bank about transferring money, buying toiletries, packing. . . .  I made multiple mental lists which only became physical lists two days before I left for France.  I may procrastinate like a pro, but I make up for it by catching up at warp speed.  And first on the list?  My first good-byes.
