Fishing and Other Ventures

This weekend I spent my nights in the discotech, one in Modena and one in… some other city I don’t know the name. We had fun but I need to watch my spending if I’m gonna make it through March.

I went fishing out in the country on Saturday in San Antonio Marcadello with Paltro and the guys. I caught two fish consecutively towards the end, and that was my brief hour of fame. But, I had a great time lounging in my chair drinking scotch. Life is always good when you’re drinking Scotch (save the recovery, hours later).

On Saturday before disco I went to a restaurant for a drink at the bar and to visit a friend while she was working, when I was invited to dinner with a few Napoliatano’s. They were very generous, and we had intriguing conversation about mafia (American vs. Italian). I never realized how much the Mafia actually had to do with WWII and the fight against Mussolini, but we talked about how Lucky Luciano served as a liaison between the two sides.

Paltro, Riccio, Chuiuga, Enrico and some others may come along with me to Stockholm, which would make for an exciting trip. We’ll see what happens. I am excited.
