Tomorrow I leave for Italy!!! This will be my first time overseas, and I can't wait to explore all the history, culture, and food that Italy has to offer. I'm going to be taking the fancy shmancy dSLR camera too, so expect some really good photos once I get back. I'll be spending 5 nights in Rome, 3 nights in Florence, and 2 nights in Venice, and get back on March 3rd, just in time for the Texas primary and caucus.

However that doesn't mean there won't be any updates until then. One of the 10 people I'm going on the trip with is bringing his laptop, so I should have some internet access. And I might even be able to post some photos here, so check with the RSS feed to see if I have some travel updates or new photos I put up. And then once I get back I promise I'll have the photos up quickly on this website.

In the meantime I'm horribly unprepared for this trip, so I'm hoping my friends know what they're doing because I'm just along for the ride basically. I have a huge long list of stuff I need to make sure I do before I leave, and I have yet to start packing, but I figure it just makes life more exciting this way right?

I did though make sure to find some best pizza places in Italy because there is no way I could go to Italy without eating pizza.

I'm going to miss all the excitement over the election since I'll basically be cut off from the news, but make sure you

vote and caucus on March 4th

Speaking of which, this article talks about management styles and who is more likely to make gains on health care.

And here's an article about the amazing fundraising that Obama has accomplished, with 90% of the donations being under $100, and a full 40% being under $25. And all raised without a single special interest group or PAC or lobbyist in sight.

Ciao!
