The bungalow, with a lot of tired bungalow mates

When in Pasteum

My bungalow mates have the same mentality as I do: ADVENTURES ALL DAY EVERY DAY.  Last night we didn’t finish up everything until 9:30, but Kristen had really wanted to go explore town.  So, regardless of the time, we decided to venture off.

SOOOOO….CHANGE OF SUBJECT!  I JUST WENT TO GO GET BREAKFAST AND WE ARE REALLY TIRED BECAUSE LAST NIGHT WE ALL WENT TO EXPLORE TOWN AND WE MET NEW FRIENDS AND I WENT ON A VESPA (JUST FOR A SECOND, JUST TO SAY I DID) AND WE SPOKE ITALIANO AND WE GOT LOST AND REALIZED WE WEREN’T EVEN IN PASTEUM ANYMORE BUT DON’T WORRY BECAUSE THE GIRL I AM SHARING  A ROOM WITH KNOWS ITALIAN SO WE FOUND OUR WAY BACK AND I DON’T THINK WE GOT IN TROUBLE BECAUSE TECHNICALLY WE WERE BACK BY CURFEW BUT I WENT TO GET BREAKFAST AND HAD TWO LARGE CUPS OF COFFEE BUT THEN I FOUND OUT IT WASN’T COFFEE IT WAS ESPRESSO AND NOW I FEEL LIKE MY NERVES ARE ON FIRE AND I FEEL LIKE I AM TALKING A LOT SO I WENT BACK TO THE BUNGALOW TO TRY TO REGAIN SOME SEMBLANCE OF COMPOSURE BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE I AM ON CRACK (NOT LIKE I’VE EVER DONE CRACK BUT THIS IS HOW I IMAGINE IT).  I HAVE 15 MINUTES UNTIL WE START OUR WARM UP THINGY BUT OH MY GOSH I REALLY DON’T WANT TO GO I WANT TO JUST SLEEP BUT I DOUBT THAT’S POSSIBLE NOW ANYWAY BECAUSE HOLY CRAP I JUST DRANK LIKE 15 SHOTS OF ITALIAN EXPRESSO.

Ugh. Kristen just informed me that she is wired from half a cup of this “amazing espresso.”  Why am I the last to know everything?
