Remember how I needed a vacation?!

Well guess what? I'm getting one!! Sort of.

Because someone on my team isn't able to go to a conference this weekend, and because the conference pass isn't refundable, I'm going to SAN DIEGO!



For 5 days.

And TBF gets to come, too!!!

So, needless to say my posts will be few and far between from tomorrow to next Thursday. I've never been to San Diego and I literally had to hold back tears of joy when I was told I could go because I need a getaway so very badly.

I've been working really hard lately and I'm having some winter blues so this couldn't have come at a better time. The fact that TBF gets to come, too is amazing.

I felt kind of like Lindsey Vonn when she won her gold medal yesterday, know what I'm sayin'?

Just exhausted and so grateful.

Ok, she miiiiiiiight have worked a little harder ;)

So yes, it is a work trip, but I won't complain. We have a couple extra days to ourselves and the conference will be pretty interesting.

We're staying here.

Do you see what I mean? Tears. of. joy.

I managed to squeeze in an extra day for us and I'm really hoping (and thinking) it will rejuvenate the both of us.



Temperature right now in San Diego:


In Chicago? About 29*.

Ahhh...so excited.

Yayyy! I'm so happy for you (but also very jealous)! It rose to 35 today here in Ohio and it feels like a heat wave!

I'm also jealous, but super excited for you! I can't complain too much. Even though I would love a break from my job, it is actually supposed to hit 60 today and it is sunny. I am going to head to KS though this weekend into cold and ice - not too smart on my part!!! Have a SUPER time :)

That's a fun area! If you have time, head out to Coronado...it's lovely...especially for a sunset dinner. ☺

That's great news! So glad TBF can go, too! That will certainly be a change in weather for you. Have fun!

Have an excellent time!! Don't forget your SPF and dry shampoo.

And leave emo-boy a note that says to get it out of his skinny system while you're gone. :)
