w00t! Mini-Vacation!
filed under: Stuff you never, ever needed to know
That's my "ticker" from the message board where I've been fanatically researching our vacation destination this weekend. It's a trip that has been billed to the family only as "The Mystery Vacation," because I kept the location a secret.
Until two nights ago, when apropos of nothing, talking about something else, our conversation went like this:
Me: I can't believe I have to get a show open two weeks after we get back from Mexico.Lisa: [sits up, blinks, stares at me]
Me: What? [realization] Aw, g*d d*mnit!
So now she knows we're going to Mexico. Flying into Cancun, but not staying there - renting a Jeep (which I'm unduly happy about) and driving elsewhere. And no, despite what the ticker says, it's not Playa del Carmen - that's just the website that hosts the ticker-maker.
Yes, so we're leaving the country tomorrow morning, returning Monday night. Short and sweet, just a chance to plonk down on the beach and complete the decompression that hasn't really had a chance to happen since the huzzurah of the Youngblood show in Feb/March and the end of Lisa's school term (in which she pulled not only a pure 4.0, but the top-of-class award! Way to go, hon, perfect game!)
And, hopefully, some actual Procrastinet posts will come of it...
