no one mourns the bad blogger

wow, i have been a baaaaaad blogger as of late. i remember that i was also a bad blogger last august. i don't know why. hmmm. anyway, i'm kind of in a lazy mood, so i will post a few europe pictures and then take my chicken pot pie to the den and probably watch twelve episodes of the office. 

(p.s. we realized when we got to london that our camera battery wasn't charged and we forgot to bring a charger...and then we realized half way through that we had an extra battery. dumb. so i don't have pictures for some of my favorite days!) 

first time seeing wicked......WHAT?!?!?! we loved it. highlight of the trip! we saw what i like to call the holy trinity of theater: war horse, which is a beautiful, moving play about horses in WWI, wicked (what more can i say?), and.....legally blonde.....ahem. 




ok. this guy is awesome. we went on this walk in the east end where you see all the important sites in the jack the ripper story. the guy who took us wrote a book called jack the ripper and travels all over to give seminars about him. did you know people did that kind of stuff for a living? and did you know that jack the ripper's real name wasn't jack and that he only killed prostitutes? the things you learn when you travel. 

paul mccartney's house. creepy? creepy.

that's-a wizard's chess!

beautiful holland.

sitting in a giant wooden clog in amsterdam. i guess i didn't need to caption that.

nothing screams tourist like a rick steves book.

anyway, it was a fun trip! i managed to get $150 stolen within six hours of being in london, but i have a highly developed ability to forget things when i want, so i chose to forget that the rest of the trip.

also, please read this. it's so true. did you know that i liked harry potter before it was cool? ha. ha. ok, not funny.
