[9:43:27 AM] Troy Symington: Good! We just got back from Pisa, and now we're making dinner and I'm going to do lots of homework right after we're done eating.

[9:43:57 AM] Katie Symington: Ah, do you have a minute to tell me about how Pisa was?

[9:54:38 AM] Katie Symington: TROY!

[10:13:22 AM] Katie Symington: DUDE.

[10:13:48 AM] Katie Symington: Generally people say "brb" or even "gotta go" before they disappear

[10:24:56 AM] Troy Symington: I'm soooooorrrrryyyyyy!

[10:24:57 AM] Katie Symington: YO

[10:25:14 AM] Troy Symington: We just finished making dinner and now we just sat down to eat!

[10:25:41 AM] Katie Symington: Next time would it kill ya to SAY SO forty minutes ago???

[10:26:10 AM] Troy Symington: ...yes. I"m seriously sorry, but I got caught up in making dinner.

[10:26:28 AM] Katie Symington: You go eat, I'm watching the long Sense and Sensibility. When you come back to do hw I expect to hear about Pisa, k?

[10:26:48 AM] Troy Symington: Okay, bye!

[11:13:16 AM] Katie Symington: hiiiiiiiiiiiii!

[11:13:36 AM] Troy Symington: Yoooooo!

[11:13:52 AM] Katie Symington: pisa?

[11:15:15 AM] Troy Symington: Such. A. Tourist town. We didn't even go up into the tower because it was SO FREAKING EXPENSIVE!

[11:18:35 AM] Katie Symington: how much?

[11:20:32 AM] Troy Symington: 20 euro! It's ridonculous. We did pay 6 euro to go to the babtistery and the cemetery which were pretty cool, but probably should have cost a bit less. The coolest thing was the cathedral! (which was free).

[11:21:07 AM] Katie Symington: lol sounds awesome! tell me more about your weekend.

[11:24:02 AM] Troy Symington: We went to Fiesole on Saturday. Which is a tiny town on a hill above florence. We saw some roman ruins there and a pretty cool church and the veiw of florence is amazing! Then on Sunday we went to Lucca which was really cool! It's the only Medeival town with a fully intact wall that goes all the way around it! We went to a bunch of really cool churches and their Duomo was awesome! Then we went to the top of a tower (that had trees on the top) and veiwed the city. Then we saw the house where Puccini (the opera composer) was born and we walked all the way around the city on the wall!

[11:24:45 AM] Katie Symington: wow, amazing!!! I did homework. ;)

[11:25:02 AM] Katie Symington: And went to a drive in movie theater, it was awesome. Be jealous.

[11:25:28 AM] Katie Symington: waait they have another Duomo? What is the Duomo?

[11:25:56 AM] Troy Symington: I've been to a drive in before! What movie did you see?

[11:26:14 AM] Troy Symington: A Duomo is.... a cathedral with a dome on it.

[11:26:29 AM] Troy Symington: The one in Florence is the most famous.

[11:26:46 AM] Troy Symington: But we've seen 3 so far and they've all been fantastic.

[11:27:16 AM] Katie Symington: Wow!!! I didn't know that.

[11:28:02 AM] Katie Symington: We saw I am Number Four and Tron. They were fantastic, and it was very very fun. You get to see two movies for 7 a person, so we paid 14 bucks for like four hours of entertainment. Awesome!

[11:34:22 AM] Troy Symington: That's awesome! There are actually movies in english over here (or with subtitles) but I've been told that they suck.

[11:34:49 AM] Katie Symington: boo

[11:34:55 AM] Katie Symington: So what hw you doing?

[11:36:13 AM] Troy Symington: Soc Sci. We're writing journals about the museums we've seen so far. Nothing too difficult, it's just time consuming.

[11:36:46 AM] Katie Symington: fun!

[11:37:40 AM] Troy Symington: Yup, I'm gonna need to go to work on them soon. I'm uploading photos from Pisa right now though!

[11:46:15 AM] Katie Symington: YAY! onto photobucket???

[11:47:51 AM] Troy Symington: Ummmmm... no. Freaking stupid Piccasa won't let me drag photos into a folder unless it's a folder in Picassa! It's ridonculous!

[11:48:10 AM] Katie Symington: yes it is.

[11:48:24 AM] Katie Symington: I hate picasa

[11:48:42 AM] Troy Symington: Didn't you tell me to use it instead of iPhoto?

[11:48:43 AM] Katie Symington: I think on picasa you can select upload at the bottom though...right?

[11:48:49 AM] Katie Symington: Yeah, sorry.

[11:48:53 AM] Katie Symington: I LIED

[11:48:58 AM] Katie Symington: On accident

[11:49:27 AM] Troy Symington: Where on the bottom?

[11:49:54 AM] Katie Symington: one of the buttons

[11:51:08 AM] Katie Symington: ...nevermind, I just looked at Picasa and couldn't figure it out. Freaking picasa.

[11:51:18 AM] Troy Symington: Freaking Picasa...

[11:51:23 AM] Katie Symington: Can you open up the camera on your computer and just select the photos there?

[11:52:20 AM] Troy Symington: No, you need picassa to get them from the camera. Wait, maybe. I just realized I brought a usb drive that you can plug sim cards into.

[11:52:31 AM] Katie Symington: yes! try that!

[11:53:51 AM] Troy Symington: Next time. I just uploaded some pics onto FB so my work here is DONE!

[12:10:47 PM] Katie Symington: pbbbbt
