Think back to the very first training session you were ever in. All you Andersen people think of that very first Sub C meeting. Everyone else imagine that first meeting where you had no idea what was going on, the subject matter was way over your head, you tried to stay awake because you could not follow along, you thought there was no way you would ever know as much as the person presenting and you thought for sure you had picked the wrong career. Are you back there? Now pretend the meeting starts at six o'clock at night and it is in a foreign language! That is how I wrapped up my day today. Every week the studio has a meeting to discuss recent topics, issues, and clients. It seems (as this is only the first week) that these meetings begin at six and typically last two and a half to three hours. Can you imagine the head of an American company calling a meeting every week at six?
Other than that the day was relatively uneventful....oh wait I have a good dinner story that may make you chuckle. I have been craving a salad for the past two nights. Last night I got home around eight and walked and walked but was not able to find a shop that looked like it had salads that I was willing to venture into. I ended up at No Solo Pizza. I acutally walked by my place twice and the second time Paolo unlocked the door for me...he probably thought I was ready to come in since I had been out for a half an hour and already walked by the place once. On a side note, I still have not figured out what Paolo's hours work. He was here on Sunday when I got here, he is here at seven in the morning and also at nine at night. Maybe he lives here! Last night I ended up ordering what I would describe as a soft and small calzone. I noticed they had salate (I think that is how it is spelled) on the menu so I decided to go there tonight (oh and also b/c they had crepes with Nutella). I asked for a salate (which said it had prosciutto and mozzarella) and a crepe. For the record salate is like a crepe...not a salad. Either way it was amazing (Dad you would have LOVED it...ham and cheese wrapped in a crepe) as was the Nutella crepe. Tomorrow...I will find that salad. Which if you are wondering is insalata...which I knew but just thought maybe it was spelled differently at this place!
Oh I forgot the best part of the day...seeing a little Cork in a window as I was walking (don't worry not for sale she was in a bed in a beauty shop window). Don't worry Cork she was not as cute as you!

Tara, I love reading about your adventures! You are doing so well over there - I predict that in a month's time, you will have learned so much that you won't even be able to believe it. Oh - and I am DEFINITELY coming to Tuscany for my friend's wedding at the end of July, so let's please discuss travel plans! I know it's a little early for you to think that far ahead, but hopefully you will keep it in the back of your mind. You are doing so great - and keep up the wonderful stories!
