Celebration Vacation: Part 2

Even though I had already done plenty of celebrating during Part One of my trip back to the States, the real party was about to begin: My Sister's Wedding!! I'm not going to lie, there was still a lot left to be done for this event when I arrived back home.  But thanks to the help of friends and family, everything got done and the wedding was spectacular!  The weather was great, the party was rocking, and most...

A Little of This, A Little of That

First of all, sorry for being so absent lately.  It's a 9 hour time difference between California and Montpellier and last week's jetlag just about killed me!  I've always prided myself on being able to adjust to the time with minimal problems.  I was fine on the way to California, but an epic weekend of late nights combined with no sleep on my flight home led to an entire week of being totally screwed up.  I...
