OK, I feel so bad that I haven't written sooner. I'm sure more than a few people probably thought that someone had tossed me overboard on the cruise . . . which would explain why I haven't updated this thing in a looooong while.
Well, I'm pleased to say (instead of gurgling from the bottom of the ocean) that I'm here and doing fine. The cruise was WONDERFUL! Sadly, the great tan I got back in February is probably fading. . . too bad the expanded waistline I got from all of the food hasn't (dont worry, Im sooooo not going to ask if these pants make my butt look big!). Seriously though, it was so nice to be able to visit so many different tropical places and eat, eat and eat some more. There's nothing more relaxing than sunbathing on the top deck of an ocean liner, docking at a port of call, getting off the boat and finding a nice quiet spot to sunbath on a beach! Thankfully, the trip only lasted a week. . . I don't wanna think how incredibly crispy I'd be if I was doing that for two weeks!
Since I've been back, work's been totally busy. . . however, I've been doing what I can to get out on the weekends with my friends. It is always kind of fun to spice things up by checking out new clubs and destinations (which Ive done) . . . I mean its a total downer to be stuck going to the same place every week, know what I mean? OK, back to vacations. . . yeah, I know, I just got back from one (well, sorta. . . back from one in February), but I always like to have a trip on the horizon, which brings me to my next point. . .
I'm taking a week off in June and am trying to figure out what to do. One idea is to pay a visit to friends in the Boston area and, on the way back, stop off for a few days to visit friends in Toronto. The downside is that its going to be tremendously expensive with airfare, hotels, food, etc.
Another idea is to go to Vegas, although, quite honestly, I don't know if I could gamble and gorge myself for a week . . . especially in the summer Vegas heat. Another idea is Palm Springs (which I did last year). The final idea would be to venture down to San Diego. . . while I have many wonderful friends down there to visit, Ive done it more than a few times. So, as always, I'm curious to see which of these ideas you folks like the best . . . or, if you want, hear your suggestions if you think of something cool not on the above list. Ok. . . . discuss amongst yourselves. . .
*hugs*
