Ciao, suckers!
June 7, 2010
The kids and I leave town tomorrow to grab Mom and head out on a road trip that will surely not end with me driving us all off a bridge. We’ll be exploring DC and NYC and I couldn’t be happier about it, mostly because it involves a substantial amount of socializing with people I really like. It’s not weird that most of those people are from Austin and I have to go on vacation to see them.
In case you were thinking you’d break into my house while we’re gone, you should know that I’ve got a house/dog sitter staying there for the duration of our trip. Plus, we really don’t have anything worth stealing, so please stop casing the joint.
We’ll have very brief time in Indy and I was foolishly thinking I could somehow cram in some visits with folks there, but then I looked at our schedule and realized we’ll be there for all of about 8 hours on the front end, and a good 7.5 of those will be spent sleeping. . . and then I’ll maybe have another 12 hours on the back end, and sorry, but my baby sis gets that time. So, once again, I suck and won’t stop to say hello to my Indiana friends while I’m in town.
I’ve really become a crappy long-distance friend. Sorry!
That being said, you’re more than welcome to come visit me in Austin, and I’ll have a month and a half of kid-free time to run around and be silly with you. So, it’s really YOU who is the crappy friend now, isn’t it? Unless you book a flight. Then, you’re fine.
Anyway. Happy vacation to me! The end.
