The past four days have been a typhoon- literally. With less than 4 hours of being in Venice under my belt, a summer rain storm came in to drentch the entire city. Joined by thunder and lightening it took 2 days to clear up. I am going to think of it as the city taking a bath for me before I got here so it could be all spick and span.
San Marco welcomed me with a rainbow after the rain.
There has been some wandering so far, more food shopping, and a ton of beaucratic paperwork. Everything from getting my citizen card to health insurance, water bus pass, and even the library takes at last 2 forms and a copy of my passport. Robin, and instructor at the school, says everything is still done on paper, so the conveiance of computers, AKA the 21st century, is not in play. Also, I have found that every woman behind glass in Italy is a bitch. Just a raging mean person. There is lots of big arm motions when the two girls who speak Italian get envolved with the public servants.
The school is excellent. For how crappy the apartment is the printing room makes up for it 9 folds. I'll write big long blabbing post about both these places later.
To bed with me- I have school in the morning. HA!

I need to be checking this blog more often, and commenting on it too.
Beside that, all I have to say right now is i'm loving you.
Viri checks it, though, and says you need a video blog.
