Mikayla&Milan

Hey dudes.
Well, surprise! I'm kickin' it solo in the apartment again--it's ok though. This is the last installment of planned chill-time for a while. It will be nice to move quickly again. This state of activity (or lack thereof) breeds laziness, and I don't like that feeling.
Sadly, we still do not have the allusive care-package from home. :( Not only will it cost an additional 135€, but it is now out in Milan's warehouseland and it must be rescued before it journeys to the downtown post office on Friday. Well, being the the cab-fare alone could rival the value of the packages contents... ugh. So we're just going to wait until Friday and pick up our package at the downtown post office. Oh, but wait! Now that can't be too easy either, though! Why, you might ask? Well, because there's a planned public transportation strike on Friday! Si, claro! Dios mio!!! Por supuesto hay una huelga de trabajadores a viernes, cuando necesitamos transporte público!!! Dios mio... fucking típico.
I digress, just another "bump along the way"... kinda like 84 before that, but hey! We're still bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and nothing can get us down (except bankrupcy)!
I really wish I weren't so obsessive about finances. It's ruining my fun. I need to "Live in the Moment", damn it. I keep telling myself that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and I need to savor it, but I'm too worried about something going wrong and costing us even more money.
Well, my oh my I am just a ray of sunshine today.
Sorry about that.
Things really aren't too bad. I'm glad I have such a positive partner to share this with. Even when I'm dead-set on being a downer, she perks me back up and makes me laugh.
We're good at that somehow. Thank God for Kjelsie. :)
I think I'll throw in some pictures just to keep this from looking boring. They're a bit old (from February) but KJ and I weren't blogging then. Kjelsie and I had rendezvoused in Barcelona for a weekend that will no doubt go down in history. ;) Enjoy.
Peace and Hope,
Mikayla
