LIFE IS GOOD RIGHT NOW... and then monday comes, work begins, and total mayhem ensues! live it up while you can!

THE MOUSKETEERS WOULD LIKE TO WISH YOU A
HAPPY EASTER!

HELLO FROM 3 AM... AGAIN


once again i find myself wide awake when it seems as though all the world is peacefully slumbering... well not in the eastern part of the world where they're already well into the day.

the only difference between this time and the last time that i was miserably unable to sleep is the fact that this time, the insomnia is not drug-related. that's good right? or not so much.

i am so keyed up right now that my muscles actually feel like they are vibrating. lame.

guess that means it's time for a word vomit!

- i, once again, have said YES to too many things. i have been, unsuccessfully, trying to work on 5 different projects... so it always seems like i am 2 steps behind. i'm behind on calling people back, responding to emails/facebook stuff, trying to reschedule dinner dates or other such social exploits because i had to cancel. i feel like NOTHING is getting the attention it deserves... and that includes some of my favorite relationships. then it makes me feel guilt-ridden, and that NEVER does a body good!


- i feel like i have had more than my fair share of people snafu's over the past few weeks. i seem to either be putting my foot in my mouth, doing the wrong thing, not doing what i need to be doing, forgetting something or someone, or somehow being rude when i didn't know i was being rude. i just can't get it or keep it together this month!


- i'm worried about traveling in new countries all by myself. i've had two separate nightmares that i got lost in an airport in france and couldn't get to my connecting train on time... in one of the dreams i then had to sleep in the airport until the next day and i got stalked by a homeless man that sort of looked like PRINCE! anyone want to travel with me to italy in june?


- i'm worried about money for this summer. i know i shouldn't fret... the company will pay me each week and i should be just fine with the amount i'll have saved by the time i go... but i can't help but worry about the unknown.


- i sometimes feel trapped here in utah. i can't figure out what about utah makes me feel this way, but i feel it nonetheless. so the thought of staying here after i return from my summer 'o' fun, gets me a little moody... even with really cool things happening here that are on the horizon.

okay, i think that's enough for now. do we think this vomit has helped? i am hoping that the minute i push send it will also send along some lethargic vibes to my synapses and tell them to chill out so i can sleep for just a few hours.

i guess if this doesn't work, there's always counting sheep... right?

LA MIA PROSSIMA AVVENTURA GRANDE



oh, i am so sorry that i won't be here for your birthdays and weddings and bah mitzvahs and baby blessings... i'll be in italy... all summer... soaking in the sun and traveling through europe on my down-time, and my heart is breaking! HAHAHA! or not so much!

i really hate to brag, but let's be honest, there hasn't been much to brag about lately in the life of peggy... so i am ALL OVER this one!

have you heard this story before, it's a good one:
once upon a time this girl named peggy applied to teach english as a foreign language through the use of the creative dramatics and drama. then, after weeks of hard work, blood, sweat and tears... she heard from the amazing people at ACLE... they told her to COME ON OVER and be a teacher with them! and the world rejoiced. okay, maybe not the world... but she did, for sure. oh and so did all of the amazing people in her life that have been supporting her this whole time!

so it's official. i'm out. wish me luck.

they changed a few of the start times for camp, so i will now have to be there by june 8th for my teacher training and then i won't be back until the end of august!

guess who's turning 30 in ITALY!!??
what better way to ring in the new decade, yeah?

what's cool about this camp is that we start off in a small coastal town called SAN REMO , if you look at the map above, it's really close to GENOA. then, once i start, i will be sent ALL OVER italy, camping at places like tuscany, rome, venice, milan and many more!

this is the kind of life-changing experience i needed right about now!

BEING A DO-GOODER


so i'm driving along... take the ramp from i-215 to i-15 north when all of a sudden i am slowed down from a brisk 45 mph to about 5mph.

the car in front of me was clearly having troubles.

i marveled at why he didn't feel it necessary to pull off onto the shoulder and let others pass him by whilst he tried to figure out his situation.

but he never did and finally, after about 1/4 of a mile after the on-ramp, he stopped cold turkey, smack in the middle of the far right lane.

at this point, other cars are now veering around him and whizzing on by and i'm in the most awkward position to get myself out into traffic.

so i take a moment and decide that i am not in any rush and can at least ask if help is needed.

so i gently pull up to the side of his car, praying i don't get side-swiped, roll down my window and peer into his now open window.

"hi, did you need any help?" i ask the man at the steering wheel and the 4 young adult boys he has in the car with him.

"yeah, we ran out of gas. do you want to get out and push us to the side?"

(okay i am so laughing out loud as i type this story)

i was shocked. here are 4 boys... probably around 15-16 years of age. they all look to be in good health... no visible defects... all appear to be of sound mind. and then there's me... weakling, has-no-upper-body-strength peggy, being asked to push a car full of MEN!!

hahahah!

so i start giggling as i pull off to the side of the road, ready to roll up my sleeves and help these dudes, when in my rear-view i see that a police man has just pulled up, thrown on his lights and taken control.

with a little wave, i shut my door and head on my way. it's funny because i was totally willing to help... but found it rather odd that they weren't really willing to help themselves... hysterical!

next thing i know i'm going to ask an old woman if i can help her cross the road and she's going to ask me to pick her up and take her to las vegas on foot!
