so i tried buying tickets on orbitz. found out that it's the most difficult thing to do. went through the whole process, went to another website to find hotels and stuff, came back to orbitz to finish with purchase of tickets and when i hit the PURCHASE button, i was timed out, BUT they still took my money. if i'm timed out, shouldn't they NOT take my money? anyway, now I have to wait till Tuesday morning to have the money released to me and i can then try to buy plane tickets again. bastards! they were good tickets to. from Houston to Philidelphia to Rome and back the same way. i couldn't beleive that i was actually purchasing tickets online for rome.

went to the greek festival yesterday. boought a bottle of wine, shared it with a woman and ate good food. she's such an extravert. where i would keep to myself, she talked to strangers. i would have needed DLC there for that. anyway, met a travelling woman who told us that rome was more a two day event. BUT, if we really wanted to expereince italy, we needed to travel to florence. she made it sound interesting. hell, i was enthralled. anyway, seems that we will stay two days in rome and then head to florence. i already told my travelling companion that i will have to pay a visit to Anzio. sorry, it's a history thing. need sand, but that's a story for customs.

someone talk to orbitz for me and tell them that i want tickets NOW. have a good weekend. waiting for a good movie to preocupy my time so i don't think about the money that's in my account, but not of my acount.
