I think it's a much better approach to let loose on vacation/trips and walk the line most of the year, than to let it all hang out most of the time-- with occasional stints of exercise/accidental vegetable ingestion. I've missed you, lady. :-) Your cross-country trip looks like it was amazing! I never got over my fear of blogging to actually publish my musings, but so grateful that you do. Hope to see you soon!

Not because I'm right and you're admitting it, but because you are such an admirable person, and I'm thrilled that this experience has been good for you in a whole variety of ways. I like having you for a suite mate. You're a rock, but in a good way.

Enjoy every darn crumb! Lick your fingers clean and then order another beer!" Really, you know the whole drill of 'When in Rome, blah, blah...'. Now it's 'When in Prague...' and that involves mandatory consumption of cream pastries, real sugar, butter, meat and beer. By the way; do the Czech chicks strike you as having anything but fab bodies? I just saw a bunch of them in Provincetown and they all looked like super-models...<BR/><BR/>I suppose a lot of it is due to miles of daily walking/bike riding, not like here in the US where it would be nearly suicidal to attempt to bike ride to the Stop& Shop (even though the distance might be manageable).<BR/><BR/>Have you gone off to Budapest and/or Berlin yet? <BR/><BR/>I love to read your blog and it seems you're having a most interesting time. Let's go wild and go out for a drink and decadent dessert when you come back! <BR/><BR/>Happy and safe travels!<BR/><BR/>JessicaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
