NOW I'm a happy professor
I typed sono molto contento the other day, but this morning is better. It's Sunday in Rome. It's chilly. I have a cough. I'm footsore from walking too far in wet shoes yesterday. I was not in the mood for the Porta Portese market this morning. However, I was out of bed and ready to go at an appropriate hour. I texted the group for whom I have telephone numbers so far.* Moments later I get a call saying that they organized themselves last night and are standing on the platform for the number 8 tram on their way to the flea market.
On their own!
Self-reliance!
Yay!
That's a good sign. I raise a 2nd cappucino to a less stressful day.
*Grrrrr...though they now all have cellular service a few of them haven't given us their numbers! Nick's latest group email on the subject used all caps - readers who know him can interpret that!
