i'm getting really nervous about catching this bus to the airport at 3:40 this morning. i have to walk there by myself with my big ugly travel backpack... it's an issue. i'll be fine, i know, but it's 3am in london, right!? i can be nervous. anyway, i'm really intrigued thinking about how these next few days will go - being in italy alone for 6 full days. i'm sure i'll meet people at the hostel. it should go well - i've loved the past 2 being in the apartment/london alone...well, besides making a trip to oxford circus the other day. oxford circus never puts me in a good mood.

i went to anthropologie today and it felt like being at home. i just sat on a couch and took it all in...it felt so good.

except, this was like the mecca of all anthropologies: it had a 3 story wall with live plants growing on it, a huge stuffed sperm whale hanging from the basement ceiling and cupboards + cupboards full of gorgeous teacups.

i bought a pretty coaster and a huge mug to put my coffee in...

Cheers!

anyway... dear florence+pisa... be nice!
