...For Kraft Macaroni and Cheese! Yes, it's true. At this very moment I am eating Kraft Spider man shaped mac and cheese, and I am loving every minute of it. Mmmmmmmmmm. Ah, life's guilty pleasures. But today, I refuse to feel guilty.
So, I'm home! Man, it is so good to be here. I had a really wonderful time in Scotland, but the last few days I was just wanting to be home. And now I am. Yay! I caught a cab from my hostel yesterday morning (which was a loooooooooooong time ago-- longer than the average yesterday morning), and had a good chat with my cabbie on the way. I told him that I was really excited to go to America and see my friends and family, and he said, "you'll probably get spoiled rotten." I just laughed. But I am already getting spoiled rotten, starting with mac and cheese, and high-speed internet, and cable television, and a really nice warm shower, and my parents' incredible library of books (not to mention all of my old books that I grew up with) and the best -- seriously, the best-- pillow I have ever slept on. All that on top of seeing my parents again, and being in a country where people are not always asking me to repeat myself.
It's a little bit chilly here (who would have thought that Scotland would be warmer than Portland?), but that is totally fine with me, because I have been dreaming about green bean casserole for like a year and a half, and it's the perfect day to have a warm dish like that! My life is amazing!
I have already attempted to drive, which was a little bit dangerous-- especially after logging a thousand miles on Scottish roads. But I only turned onto the wrong side of the road once, and it was in a parking lot, so no big deal.
So... that's me for now. I still have some photos from Scotland that I will post soon, and I have some decisions to make looming in the future, but for this week, I am just going to relax and enjoy my ridiculously blessed life. Later, alligator!
