Missing France

I am not in France anymore(in case you couldn't tell from the subject of this post.) This is a problem. Jennifer and I are trying to make a Europe trip after graduation. I'm really hoping this works out. Because, unfortunately, and also probably inevitably, I have become what my friends call a "Europe Girl." I'm assuming this means that they're sick of me bringing up France (or Italy, or London, or Switzerland... you get the point) at least once a day. Although I know that secretly they find it endearing. The problem is, I think about it probably at least half of my waking life. Freud would probably think that this is going to cause some form of abnormality because my desire to spend every penny I earn on plane tickets, train tickets, hostels, and every type of wine, cheese, and pasta under that magnificent soleil europeen is in conflict with my need to start saving for my real life. You know, the one you're supposed to start after college with car payments, mortgages, a 9-5, and preferably someone to make an honest woman out of you. So, in order to save my sanity, I'm thinking that maybe I can put off that real life for a little longer and finally make it to those places I need to see, even if it is for a second time.

Also, I clicked on a link to this without being logged in and realized that at least half of my posts are not visible. For example, the rest of Italy... where did that go? So, not that anyone besides me is going to be reading this anymore seeing as I've been back in the states for 8 months already (8 MONTHS?!? How did that happen?)it would still be nice to have everything out there in the open.
