it's true: i don't like eggs; but i do have a taste for adventure ... and telling stories. here you'll find two parts truth + one part fiction (embellishment is an art, after all), which adds up to an account of a long-awaited, 22-day, european holiday.

... a video says a thousand words ...
so. t-4 days until departure (gentle (and swift!) passing of time, indeed!). since i've been struggling to find the right words to update this space, i decided to create a little video to do the talking (er, writing) instead. before you watch, though, three things:
yes, even though i am not all dressed up with a special place to go, i am wearing red lipstick. that's because wearing lipstick (in any color) is not something i typically do; so, i'm practicing. and considering i am most comfortable plain-lipped, the red lipstick is a major diversion from my norm. but, it's still "the season of yes" and bold travel plans call for bold lipstick. done.
this video does contain a bit of mild profanity. and by "bit," i mean one word, which is barely audible, towards the very end of the take. you see, the record button on the flip camera (who even uses a flip camera any more? this girl, that's who!), which starts and stops the recording, decided to stick (hence the ~7 seconds of table footage) at the end of the video - a mild source of frustration, which manifested itself in one tell-all word: dammit.
i apologize in advance for the poor visual quality of this video (and the voice-ups); i am certainly a better writer than videographer ...
