Vacation Anticipation
So we all know the mortgage business sucks right now. When it's busy and I'm making money, I don't have time to take off and have fun. Now it's slow, and I'm not, but hey - at least I can go somewhere and not be working the entire time! Pros and cons, pros and cons.
So first up, I'm headed to San Diego and Las Vegas this week. My seemingly annual trek to leave town during SXSW. Plenty has been said by me on that subject, so I'll leave it at that. I am looking forward to spending time with Mike!
Next - back to the scene of the crime!
Four years ago, on March 3, I was kidnapped by Ben and The Wilburns and taken to Key West. After a much told adventure of finally getting there - the weather was uncooperative - Ben and I got married in the Domestic Violence Room at the Monroe County Courthouse, very near Mile Marker ZERO. Shots and beer were all around... and my now infamous face plant on the sidewalk. Said face plant was a combo of no sleep, heat, a couple of beers, and well, the shock of being hitched! :-) After the face plant (no beer was harmed or lost in said accident) we found a hotel and it's restroom so that I could inspect and clean my wounds. That hotel was Island City House.
Guess where we are staying in April? Island City House! Now, some of the charm and coolness of that idea is a little dampened because Ben and his Bromantical Partner Jon stayed there a couple of years ago, but that's okay. We are all really looking forward to visiting Key West all together. And another Wilburn couple will be joining us to celebrate their honeymoon - a few months after their wedding. (Jon's brother Brent, who was also on the last cruise with us)
Woo Hoo! I love Vacation Anticipation!
