It's What?!? May?!

So, in case my subtle blog title did not clue you in, I'm a little more than shocked at how the time as flown. (I won't even tell you how I reacted when I discovered it was almost June...I will say it involved a mop). I have so much to write about, but every day I'm out doing more blog-worthy stuff and then collapsing in my oh-so-comfortable bed afterwards. So I'm going to chug through, but go a little bit out of order.

Currently, life is pretty A-ok peachy-keen. It's been rather consumed with social adventures, like BBQs, hanging out at Floyd (my bar/cafe) or the Gastronemia (my Italian "fast food" joint) with friends, and music. I've wiggled my way into a band and officially living the Italian dream (if the Italian dream involves a band...which it just happens to for me). Also, occasionally I "work." Filippo is fantastic and speaking English like a pro! One day, he just lost all fear and decided to whip out English, and he's a champ.

Next month, Filippo gets out of nursery school for the summer, and the next day the family is shipping off to Greece for 2 weeks. This girl right here will be shipping off to Greece with Tata Allison for 10 days and is so excited! We might also pop up to Turkey for a quick nip into Instanbul (not Constantinople now).

Which of course leads me to my adventures in other exotic locales, like Morocco Marocco Marocco Marocco and Rome Rome Rome.

Nothing Post

It's been a while since I've gotten to update this bloggy blog of mine, but know that my absence has good reason: I'm freaking busy. In all the best ways, I'm happy to report. But you're going to have to wait to hear all about my life the last few weeks.

I spent some time with Tata Emma (Filippo's last nanny), went to Morocco with Charlotte, went to Rome with Charlotte and her brother, hung out in Sala Baganza with Charlotte and Drew, and now need about 4 days to recover. And let me tell you, you can't wait to hear about my adventures. For now, revel in the monkeys:
