caithreamThis time next week, my butt will be on a plane to Germany. I planned it last summer, bought tickets in August, and now it's a WEEK AWAY. Cannot even/rainbow vomit/rocket-fueled cartwheels. AHHHH.
I think it'll be good for me to get away for a while too. I've been having some... LJ and fandom-y issues lately, so hopefully going away for a little bit will snap me back into place. I really think I just need a break from LJ, fandom, and technology in general. Force myself to step back and actually enjoy other things!
Because I'm stupidly excited, and because I'm a super nerd who loves nothing more than to itinerize, HERE IS MY LISTY OF THINGS:
- March 9: arrive in Frankfurt, Germany at 7:20am; pick up my irl friend E who will be joining me, work our way to the ever so wonderful![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
stargazertook's place; maybe gallivant around the city until jet lag kicks in
- March 10: sightsee Wiesbaden and Mainz
- March 11-12: sightsee Heidelberg/Rothenberg/Ulm
- March 13: drop E off at the airport; downtime day; possibly walk around Frankfurt again by myself
- March 14: sightsee Nuremberg
- March 15: meet up withgeckoholic (yaaaay!) and sightsee Hannover
- March 16: sightsee Wurzburg
- March 17: sightsee Trier
- March 18: another downtime day, or possibly just hopping on a train to wherever, depending on how tired I am from a whole week of doing the same
- March 19: sightsee Bad Homburg withstargazertook and family
- March 20: sightsee Cologne withstargazertook and family
- March 21-24: fly from Frankfurt to Amsterdam, and then take a train from Amsterdam to Groningen in the northern part of the Netherlands, where my family lives; stay with them on their farm omg
- March 24: take train back to Amsterdam and then to Leiden, where my good friend whom I've known since kindergarten is studying and stay with her
- March 25: go to the Keukenhof Flower Festival omgomgogmalkajdlsa;jsf
- March 26: sightsee Amsterdam
- March 27: sightsee Haarlem/The Hague
- March 28: fly Amsterdam back to Frankfurt
- March 30: fly back to the US
...YEAH. And you'd better believe I'm going to annoy the crap out of ALL OF YOU with my neverending posts and pictures of it all, sry2say. Okay, actually I'm a little bit sorry, JUST KNOW I WON'T BE ABLE TO HELP IT.
Alsoooo it's this guy's birthday. YOU KNOW. This guy. Who I am generally fond of.

Date: 2011-03-02 03:02 am (UTC)I feel SO tied down to the internet/LJ/twitter as of late, and the more I'm on them, the more I want to be on them, which is a horrible circle to get into. So break away for a while I must! I'll still have my laptop with me to get on every now and again (and check in with my parents on Skype so they don't think I've died, ha). OMG PICTURES, BB, SO MANY PICTRES.

Date: 2011-03-02 04:52 am (UTC)I feel like this is currently my life! And it's driving me crazy! I get home from work and I'm all, UGH, WORK, and all I want to do is sit down and read some fic, or whatever, and then my whole evening is gone and I haven't done anything productive. And then I feel MORE blah and then I read MORE fic, and etc etc. So yeah, hopefully I can kick that habit. The internet is like my indulgent carton of ice cream after a bad day, but now it's just part of my routine. SIIIGH.
But yeah, like you, I just want to use my laptop for storing/maybe uploading some pics, and keeping up with a liiiitle fandom news, haha.
Ack, I hope I don't have to call home! I FINALLY got the unlock code for my old phone, so I'll be buying a SIM card over there. Would be expensive! But much obliged for the tip, all the same. :D
IF ONLY I HAD A PRO LIKE YOU TO COME WITH MEEEE. Next time for sure! <3
