Where to next?

Hello, my four faithful readers. I promise I will put up amazing Virgin Islands pictures soon which will make you all envious and me sad that I'm not there anymore. In the meantime, let me ask you a question. Last winter I took my mom to Florida for her big 6-0. I then took a lovely work trip to Seattle where I caught up with an old high school friend. Since I rode Southwest on both these trips, I received a voucher for a free roundtrip flight in the continental US. The question is, where to? I have to use the voucher before the end of March. This is unfortunate timing, since I'm going to Denver in April for work and would just use the voucher to bring Nick along with me, but that won't work.

Any thoughts? Further south? Out west? What do you guys think?

home for a while

Got back from the Virgin Islands Friday ~ midnight. Wishing I was still there. Spent hours checking my work email yesterday and tonight. Back into the full swing of things, including trying to get the hang of my new position, starting tomorrow. Meant to go to bed early tonight, but Nick sucked me into this Redskins/Cowboys game and now he's fallen asleep on the couch next to me while I feel the need to watch the end.

Pics forthcoming from VI and Chicago. No more work travel until March, I think? Weird.

Sleepy...

So tired! I got in from Chicago around 12:30 last night and struggled in to work this morning. A very sweet man sitting next to me on the plane told me all about his trip to Australia. This made me 1) jealous of his 4-week vacations and 2) so sleepy bc I was planning on taking a little nap.

Also, I totally forgot to take my little baggie of liquid items out of my suitcase when I went through security and no one said a word. Hm.
