Another day...another dollar spent... So things are still goin' pretty good...can you believe I've been here two weeks already!?!? I can't...Jess called last night and she had tried the night before....that was awesome...so good to hear from you hon! Definately wish you were here! Talk Dave's mom into the frequent flyer miles! haha....Good to see the posts from everyone too! I feel so loved...ahhhh.....*tear* I found out the sausage thing...I asked my teacher and NO it is NOT called Vienna Sausage! hahaha...I win! She told me what it was called instead but I don't remember it right now...I'll put it on tomorrow if I remember to look...I wrote it down...and I have witnesses too! So Brian just like I've done to your twin...I've proved you wrong! haha...you boys need to go back to school ;) Just kidding! Lets see...what's new...yesterday we went to go on the tour of the Hoffsburg which is this huge palace with a 1000 and some rooms that I went to a lecture on the night before...but nobody remembered where they were meeting and we thought it was by the state opera house....but it wasn't....so we made our own tour....we went through these beautiful gardens that had all these statues...and we went and checked out times and places of when to go see the Spanish Horseshow...which is suppose to be phenomenal....it's on Saturday morning that you can see the practice...so i think we're gonna go do that...we basically just walked around looking at stuff and taking pictures yesterday...Tom and I went on a seesaw...haha...pictures of that will be available on my photowebsite when I get back home! We have plans of going down the Donau/Danube River this Sunday so that should be fun! Last night we just pretty much vegetated...Today we had a test in class that didn't count for anything what so ever! And our teacher said he wanted to take us to a bar that would have cheaper drinks...he likes us! :D It's the Virginia students last day of class here so there's a little party at Ma Pitom...a bar...for them tonight that I think we might check out...We went and had lunch at our restaurant today...it's all prepaid for...and after the entree I went to blow my nose in the bathroom (too much info) and as I was walking to go back to the back room where we sit the bartender guy stopped me and made me take this shot of some schnapps or something...and they were teasing me...him and two other customers and the waiter and then the cook came and made fun of me...cause I had no idea what they were saying...but then the cook started to translate some for me...I felt dumb....but then he made me do another shot! After that I was just like Danku and ran back to the table...then he came out with a huge tray of mugs full of this stuff...and gave it to us...it was champagne spritzer...it wasn't bad...but it wasn't great either...and then the bartender guy came up to me and toast just me...I think he was trying to get me drunk and take advantage of me! haha...j/k....Ok, maybe...haha....Tom, Stacy, Jaime, and Cat just went shopping and to check out train prices...I don't think I'm going to travel elsewhere...too expensive...and there is already so much you can do just staying in Vienna....plus I plan on coming back to Europe again in the future :D Then I think we're going to the party tonight...and I'm not sure whatelse....we wanted to go to the zoo...but we're going to do that Tuesday because theres a free concert of the orchestra that is by it so we'll just make a day of it...OK, just had a guy walk by and say something in German to me...ich sprechen nicht deutch! Stop starring old man!!!! GRRR.....Ok, I'll stop ranting and raving....I can't wait to go back to Dairymen's...a) the money b) the co-workers c) the money! haha...Thanks for holdin' down the fort for me Amber :) I miss my little Jada-Boo!!!
