Dreaming about vacation

[judecorp]

I wore my $2 Old Navy flip flops to walk around Southie coast with Tim, in the hopes that I would get my feet flip-flop-ready for our trip to Florida. Tim kept teasing me that I was obsessing about my trip to Florida, and that at this rate I would drive myself crazy before the trip actually comes. I can't help it, though. Like I was telling Tim, my life sucks so freaking much right now and I need ANY distraction - and this is going to be a good one!

I am so excited to get on a plane and fly the heck out of here. I am so excited to have a week without work. I am so excited to lay on the beach, read cheesy novels, watch my wife put on a swimsuit, breathe different air. I am so excited for our two nights in Key West all by ourselves, in our little women's resort thinger, lounging by the pool and dipping our toes in the ocean at the southernmost tip of the country! (I love exploring new places.) I am so excited to spend some time without thinking about cleaning out my dad's house and whether his estate will cover his bills.

Really, I just need a break. And it won't be long enough and it won't come soon enough, but I have to hold on to what I can. Maybe I will just refuse to come back.

p.s. Who wants to check in on our cats?

What do you have planned for fun in Reno?

[snack.livejournal.com]

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

so far it looks like bumming around the casinos and seeing what sorts of stuff they have there. i might attempt a day trip to tahoe but i'm there for work, so it doesn't look likely.

hanging out. :)

Hanging out is always good.

I hope you guys have a fabulous time and are able to leave some of your worries at home! William and I were supposed to go away for a night this weekend but the hotel was full so we'll just be hanging around at home. He can watch me read the new Harry Potter book - that'll be romantic. :)

This is going to be a good weekend. Harry Potter AND Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!

Sounds awesome . . . : )

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Can't wait!!

[folkyboy.livejournal.com]

i can check on the kitties if you'd like?

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

We might see if someone with a car can do it first... that way you don't have to T out here a bunch of times which I /know/ is a major pain in the ass.

Thanks for the offer! I am going to try to spare you from having to do it!

I <3 kitties.

(But you knew that already.)

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Come see kitties!!

[eight.livejournal.com]

When are you going to FL? I would totally check in on your little muffin balls if I'm in MA!

ps: I can't say it enough. I. <3. Kitties.

July 30 - August 6. But isn't that quite a hike/drive for you?

[eight.livejournal.com]

You know what, it wouldn't matter because I love kitties -- but that's the exact second week of camp for me ... No kitties for Jenny. : (

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Oh, poo. You will have to come play with kitties another time.

I'll check in on your cats. *snickers evilly*

They miss you!
