Some days, it all just clicks
One thing that I have never really found a way to explain to people who have never visited here, is how much time we can spend on simple errands. At first I thought that we were just inefficient since we are foreigners. But I’m slowly realizing that Italians are just used to things taking a long time.
But some days, everything just clicks. The other day I had several errands that I had to run. I needed to pay some bills, fill out some forms at driving school (look for plenty of blog entries with that one!), and send a package. And somehow, I was able to get all of them done in record time. In just a few short hours I whipped around town. And on my way home I remember having this little grin on my face because I felt like I had accomplished so much.
I know it sounds like a silly thing, but it really made my day!
