Dreaming the Impossible Dream

I am currently planning a roadtrip around southern France and Italy. It's only, like, 16 hours of driving through twisting, toll-scattered roads in a teeny, european rental car. Yes, I may just be insane.
But I miraculously got 6 days off work, including 4 PAID days, so now I have to go!! The only questions remaining are how much I'll actually get to see, and if my co-pilot will make it across the ocean in time to join me on this wild adventure...

My daily dose of Grey's

I have this strange new obsession with Grey's Anatomy. I never watched it in the US, but now I LOVE it, and watch it every day I can - but in french. I seriously feel like I know these people. I laugh out loud and cry with them. Perhaps it is my substitute for my real friends who are a million miles away. Or maybe it's the refreshing hour of American mentality and relationships. Or maybe I am just one of milllions sucked into the drama of Seattle Grace Hospital. Whatever it is, I can't seem to get enough!
So today I did a personality quiz and it turns out I match Cristina. I never would have guessed her, but after reading the profile, it really fits:
Very few people have, or can understand, the sheer determination and drive that propels you, but you’re just as fiercely protective of your friends as you are of your own hopes and dreams. If they’re smart, your friends already know that. They also know that you’re more vulnerable than you seem and are only glad to offer a shoulder to cry on.

Except that I would have married Burke if I were her...
