Party Gras! So I ran twice today.
You heard me, did I stutter? I ran twice today, once in the morning, and once in the afternoon. So 10.6 miles (17.5 km) total, not bad for a day off right? Tomorrow, put in a few miles, then a busy day of work. Gotta look out for my coworkers and try and help out, get my stuff done and do all the adulty things like make foods and whatnot.
Made a lovely frittata this afternoon, sweet potatoes and regular potatoes. Threw it up on the Instagram, which got hacked recently, but I seem to have gained control of it again. Hopefully, that all works out.
So the important thing about this post, I’m sitting in my apartment, at my computer. It’s a crap connection that I can’t even Skype on, but it’s working, more or less. With any luck, this weekend the TIM store down the road from me will have in some new mifi devices that will run much better. My phone is working gangbusters on my TIM SIM card, and I have an Italian phone number!
Things are coming together and every day I get a little closer to being fully settled. Met one of my students today at the grocery store I’ve been shopping at, and it turns out he owns the place! That was very cool, he took me around the store and got me everything I needed. People are amazingly nice here and it really makes it very easy to get comfortable. Also got some amazing Buffalo Mozzarella for free, can’t wait to have a little. This weekend, I have to find out where to get my hair cut, and I have to buy my ticket up to Denmark for my friends’ wedding! They should know the exact date on Thursday, luckily it’s not too long of a flight, and not too expensive. What a crazy month it has been. In fact, tomorrow marks exactly one full month I have been in country! There’s been ups and downs, one thing is for sure I can’t wait to see what next month brings!
Have fun, keep running, and remember; If Gil can run then so can you! Ciao tutti!
