france was amazinggggg and i'm so thankful to have been given the opportunity to go. I've always had a bit by a travel bug itch to travel the world, but im pretty sure now im a bug bite covered crazy lady seeing feverish delusions of places i want to go flash before my eyes: barcelona, nice, italy, india, japan, eygpyt, thailand, i want to see em all! so even though im a little depressed to be home, i'm determined to travel again soon.
i also wanted to thank everyone who followed my blog. so many times i found myself wishing my friends and family were there to experience things with me, and i hope everyone felt they were, even just a little bit. to be honest, i thought no one would even read this, and i cant tell you how happy it made me to know this was actually something people looked forward to.
and don't despair if my blog was your main source of entertainment this month. i have a ton of pictures i didnt post that i can occasionally update with. plus, a charleston vaca with the ziesche crew is not far off. vacations past have made backstage at lenny kravitz look like a tea party. even though i had originally planned for this to be a blog about my travels i think i'll update it with someone of my everyday happenings as well. of course gainesville isnt as exciting as france, but i have an overactive imagination and a way with words, so im sure i can spice up my everyday adventures for you.
love you all! lee

Things i am glad to have back:

*the pop tart effect is term i have coined to describe when something is scarier because you know it's going to happen, but you don't know when, like when you are waiting for a pop tart, eagerly anticipating its warm gooeyness, but are still startled when it pops out of the toaster. the pop tart effect can easily be used to describe situations like playing perfection, or going to a hunted house and you know some creep and a ski mass will jump out but you don't know when.
**though i am fairly certain his magical presence will be a guiding force in my life along with the aid of my two previous guardian angels, karen carpenter and freddie mercury.
