first weekend

so the first weekend in Rome came and went, and I did...nothing much at all. Still getting used to the language, the time zone, and my rediculously sore feet. Rome is a small city, and because of that, I'm walking all over the damn place. forget needing to exercise or watch what i eat so i don't gain 40 lbs. my hour and 1/2 of walking each day is gonna have me loose weight if i'm not careful.

as requested by mike,
eating is basically me cooking now as i did the first few days eating from restaurants and small tratorias around the city. that gets expensive though, so many trips to standa, a discount grocery, and lots of poor cooking on my part for the rest of the time i'm here. I'm getting very good at chopping up salami and mixing it with olive oil and fresh mozzerella in a bowl though. throw in some fresh basil and its a good big snack or lunch.

one class down, 4 more to go, and 2 of them later today.
