Does anybody out there use Facebook?
I didn’t until about last year when for some reason I no longer remember I thought it might be interesting to try. I had been on MySpace for years and had been quite addicted to it for a long time too and was afraid Facebook would be the same though at the same time I had also heard many bad things about Facebook.

I’d like to start a series of posts about living in Italy… I have been here for about a decade now, but I’m surprised by (and often shocked at) many many things that happen here. Not only things that happen, but also the way many people think and interact.

It’s all fine to say “at least you’re getting your weekend break from work and doing what you want to do”, but the truth is I feel terrible about the rest of the work that is not being done. I wish it would jsut be done and over with so I wouldn’t have to feel guilty about writing a blog post, checking email or taking a walk in the garden.
