La Vie En Rose for 2006 September 21

I was just randomly thinking a thought trail on my way back from the gym today when I started thinking about the ferry from Corfu, and some group of backpackers who were on it from another hostel, and they were going to Athens, I thought. ATHENS. Suddenly I was struck with such a longing it was all I could do not to drag out my backpack and head for the hills (the hills of LAX). Now I am looking at flights to London for ten days in December with a whirlwind tour of phd programs in mind. I'm hopeless. =(
