Lesson 1 - Sleeping in

I am not good at sleeping in. I shall need to practice during my wonderful week off. First, I need to not think about work. Second, I need to learn how to sleep walk to let the cat out in the morning.

I have been up for hours, drinking lattes and puttering. It is already glorious.

And the day looks beautiful: spring sunshine, cool but so bright. I am looking forward to getting out into it.

Day 1 - An excellent start

Last night, the start of my vacation:

- Jamey and I went to dinner and a movie. She is fun to hang out with, and it was a really nice time.

- After, we did some drank some ciders and beers and did a little beginner's drumming with Russ, Shane, Shannon, Rob and Lindsay. Russ and Shane are still hilarious together, and I enjoy teasing Shane and watching him blush.

My first day of my week off:

- Slept in a little, drank lattes and puttered.

- Went grocery shopping with Russ, which was fun because we don't do it together often.

- Russ and I had a luxurious lunch: baguette with baked brie, peach jam and roasted garlic, eaten in the sunshine outside.

- Elaine and I hung out, wandered 4th St for a while, played "Worms" with Russ, watched a DVD, ate eclairs. Yummy!
