Is it bad that I want to go back already?

All the kids had a great time in South Carolina (see exhibit a, above). Such a great time, in fact, that Lucy is now depressed to be back in the concrete jungle that is Manhattan. (In her defense, it is cold and rainy.) I stood on the subway on my way to work this morning, chilly from the rain, smushed between other grumpy commuters, trying to figure out a way I could move there and not have to be a waitress or something...gonna have to work on that.

Is it Friday yet?

I have a one-track mind this week. All I can think about is vacation. I'll do my best to post about other things, but they may be South Carolina-related. It was cold in NYC this morning -- like sweatshirt-weather cold -- and all I could think of was, I'm not ready for summer to be over yet! I need one last vacation to savor the sun, beach, sleeping with the windows open, fresh fruits and veggies, white wine, sundresses, sandals and iced coffee. Then maybe I'll be ready.

Can. Not. Wait.

I have a ten-day vacation to South Carolina coming up exactly one week from tomorrow. That means lots of dogs, beaches, wine, good food, laughter, sleep, family and hopefully lots of sun. Shift will be coming too. Yay. Is it August 29 yet?
