dude. this one was hella sweet.

first, Bush was all "mmm uhhh ahhhhh wuh?" and Kerry was all "I OBJECT!"

Then Bush was all "WHAT KIND OF LOTTERY DID MY NOSE JUST WIN?!" ... and Kerry was like "DUDE. SWEET."

Then Kerry totally turned into a giant moth and flew away. Bush burst into flames. It was awesome.

god i'm jealous of your trip! everything in Itally sounds madly romantic...even the simple things. "Drank some white wine, had some limoncelle with dessert..."
AHhhhhhh!
Also, FLEA MARKET! Whoo hoo!
Italian Puppet show! Whooo hoo!!
Take pictures woman!
we miss you, but i'm loving your posts tooo much!!
Hey, how's the Language barrier?

even the heckling men sound much nicer because of the italian.

the language barrier is fine. you just have to say things like mi italiano es non molto bene and smile. they smile back. everyone is so nice here. i ran out of money on my cel phone and had to buy a ricaricard (recharge card) and handed my phone to some italian guy at the tourist booth and was like "help!" because the directions were in italian and the number i dialed to recharge was very fast italian and he laughed and helped me. im pretty pathetic, but atleast im trying. most of the americans im seeing just immediately launch into english, which i think is rude.

the flea market was insane. im going to the capitilone museum right now, but will post tonight about the market. INSANE. thats all ill say.

miss you too! give wolfie a hug for me!!!

hey,

i thought kerry looked waay better, but the stuff i read pointed towards a draw, with a little bit in kerry's favor... having leafed through the papers at work today, most new sources said things like:

"both candidates played to their base"

"won't effect either candidate too severly"

and of course

"no one watched it"

cause it was friday night, and only nerds like me watch pres. debates on friday night. in my defense though, as soon as the debate was over i did immediately crash a coke party, make out with strippers and have rough sex with robert downey jr.

i made a painting based off of "martyrdom of st. matthew" in college, btw...
