It's about 11:30 pm and I am tired but so excited for Italy that I am wake!!!! I feel like a kid about to go to Disney World for the first time. I love to travel and seeing new places, it's all so darn exciting and changes my worldview every time.

Traveling (whether for work, as it is my other duties as assigned or for fun) is like having children, it's expensive and it makes time go by fast...
As a person that works in Higher Education, I often find myself doing things in the "Other Duties as Assigned" category which basically describes my life. In fact, this picture is of me counting down after I just shoved 23 students into a volkswagon bug... like I said, other duties as assigned...
