It’s been a busy couple of days. Had a great time over Thanksgiving vacation, and being back at work is a little “less than cool”. But whatever… it’s less than a month until my next vacation, and this time it’ll be more like 2 weeks. big w00t.
Wednesday I went down to NYC with a Korey and Erica to see Infected Mushroom at Avalon. Avalon was very…. “Avalon”. IM put on a great show though, so it was worth it. The whole deal was a bit of an adventure from a logistical perspective… a little too much walking and not getting home till 9:30am on Thursday (and no, there was no sleeping in the mean time =P ). I did the family thanksgiving at 1:00pm, and later I went to another Thanksgiving glutton-fest at Prity’s place. Hung out with her and her BF, Ed (Sirkbac), and his brother, Jim (fishguy). I don’t often get to see both of nabisco’s “Evil Twins” at once so that was pretty cool. Later I went back home to pack for Friday. Finally zonked out at around 11. Wednesday/Thursday was one loooong fucking day.

The next, and certainly more anticipated, bit of traveling was a spur-of-the-moment jaunt down to FL to visit Teresa. In all honesty, it was planned out a couple weeks in advance…. but it was spur-of-the-moment when it was planned, and if you’ve ever tried to buy plane tickets for a holiday weekend only two weeks in advance you then know exactly how spur-of-the-moment it really is =P. Many thanks to Nick for giving me some very good advice on picking plane tickets. It made the trip much more enjoyable.
I spent Friday and Saturday with Teresa at her home-home in Boca Raton. Got to meet her Mother, and it seems she thinks highly of me… so that’s one bullet dodged. Win =D. Sunday we drove back to her away-from-home-home in Orlando. My (far too short) visit ended on monday… My flight left at 7:30. Thankfully I wasn’t on it. Missed the flight due to slacking, and picked up a ticket for a flight 3 hours later. I say thankfully because I got to spend a little extra time with Teresa. I love you, sweetie. Thanks for showing me a great time while I was down in FL. Can’t wait to see you over Christmas.
That was t3h vacation. It was the best time off I’ve had in as long as I can recall, and was far too short.
i’m quite sick of avalon myself. unfortunately, they book a lot of good acts and charge way too much. how’d you do in that wonderful thanksgiving rain?
the rain wasn’t all that bad on Wednesday night, actually. It was mostly just cold and damp with the occasional drizzle passing through. unpleasant, but at least it wasn’t all-out raining.
friday morning here was nasty.
next time you come down, lemme know and i’ll buy you an overpriced beer
sabs’s younger brother was at the same show, said it was quite good.
glad to hear you had such a great weekend…
limber up your transmission muscles, because I’m pretty sure we’re going to be “go” for Dec. 11.
BOOYAM.
