Imitation is the Greatest form of Flattery

Lately I have three obsessions:

The White Stripes,

the Dead Weather,


and the Kills. (especially Midnight Boom) Let's just say Alison Mosshart his my new idol.

That and I have a new found desire to learn Italian, to move to another country, to stop being lazy about making art, and an addiction to sandwich shops in Florence such as Antico Noe and I Due Fratellini.

It hasn't quite set in that I will be returning to the states soon and I don't think it will until I am on a train to Rome the morning of December 19th, or when I find myself freezing to death when I walk out of the airport later that day.

I have quite the list of aspirations to fulfill and a head full of realistic fantasies and ideas, that should last me through the winter.

I'm ready to start a new life when I return, or at least take the steps towards it.

We shall see what happens.
