Jay and I went to the Spal game, the Ferrara soccer team, on Sunday. We bought 10€ tickets, placing us behind the goal in a nearly sold out section (the game was not sold out). With very little breeze I experienced some of the worst second hand smoke since I have been here. My eyes felt like I had been making S’mores around a Rocky Mountain camp fire, my clothes smell like I was at an Irish pub drinking Guinness till sunrise, and, well, my lungs felt like I chain smoked five Camel Lights—Do not ask me how I know what that feels like.
I picked up my formerly chainless bike on Monday. Riding here has become nearly the same money pit that is in the states.
Black Bella: 70€
New silvery rear wheel: 30€
Yet to be named bike: 45€ (I got the home boii hook-up)
Big red lock: 12€
New chain: 25€
That’s 182€ or $268. 437, obviously the dollar has been dropping like a eight pound bowling ball out of the third story window. Thus I have spent marginally less than the aforementioned $268. 437.
I am going to Innsbruck, Austria tomorrow (Thursday) till Sunday. Do you know that means? Besides the obvious cultural difference, an inability to communicate, liters of Germany beer, and Bratwurst, I will get to rock my man bag allll weekend. Ciao.

Inquiring minds want to know: What are bidets like?
I am yet to use one. It sits in our bathroom taking up floor space and collecting dust. But when I do you will be the first to know, Brian.
I was, er, asking for a friend. Sheesh.
Being European, I have used, like, thousands.
