Well, I didn't get a chance to properly respond to you earlier because I was so damn busy.

I'm taking tomorrow (friday) AND monday off work to get a much needed vacation back to the wonderful and receiptionless Jalama Beach

It's also my 23rd birthday on Monday and I refuse to be stressed out by work on my birthday.

Unfortunately, although this trip has been planned for about a month now, a couple unforeseen things at work have happened leaving the entire building essentially management-less. So all the little worker bees have been running around trying to make sure we have everything handled, calling on accounts that we know we have stuff due but don't know what, etc.

It's been hectic and chaotic. Honestly, it stills feels like it's Monday. That's how little downtime I've had. It's pretty much the worst time to bone out for two days, but what can you do.

On a happier note, I am sitting, planning, packing. We are going to leave around 4am (it's 8:30pm right now) and then NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO CONTACT ME. I can sit and relax and get a tan with my lovely boyfriend and we can catch up on some much-needed time together. Real relationships are hard when you both have lives. If I hadn't already fallen in love with him and moved in together, this relationship probably wouldn't be.

But I prioritize time together and love nothing more to waking up to him every morning. And I look forward to spending an entire weekend without a computer screen, a phone screen, or a vibrating email from work.

So. There you go Cortez.

How about you? How are you doing this fine evening?
