So, the Beloved headed off today with a few of her gal pals from grad school for a getaway weekend to Sonoma and Napa for a little wine-food-spa fun. Think the “Cashmere Mafia” with PhD’s in chemistry.
That has left me with an unusual conundrum… what do I do with 4 days on my own? I lived for a good chunk of my adult life on my own, so I’m pretty comfortable being by myself, but this is a pretty large chunk of time by recent standards.
I’m thinking that there could be some vox-ing, some scrabulous, piano sessions, finishing that book I just can’t quite get done, perhaps an Arrested Development DVD marathon. Hmmm…
Oh, and I suppose that I could do something healthy like go for a run or a hike…
Stevil 
I vote for all of the above. Seriously. I want to do ALL those things.
Hmmm…all those options sound good. I would be incredibly tempted to find a great reading spot, a fabulous cup of tea and finish off a book or two….
AND DON'T FORGET: Go pick up a box of Golden Grahams now. Cereal at any meal you want for the next 4 days! :-)
Enjoy!
Four days on one's own actually sounds pretty glorious right now. Especially if I lived where you do!Have fun!!
You know what I would do? I would use my big old brain to write a ten-page paper on reproductive rights (that's due tomorrow) for one of my Vox neighbours.
I totally would!
I'm just saying, you might wanna do the same.
I think I do too — i sort of hope one of the weekend days is dreary — less guilt for a big AR marathon…
Dude — you are SO right!! I'm stopping at the grocery store tomorrow on my way home!
Of COURSE!!! That was the other thing I was going to jot down!
Julian. Take a book, tour the wineries, listen to live music, sit in a hot tub, pack a picnic and a camera, and hike the hills; eat apple pie a la mode.
That's what I would do. Just because she's on a vacation, that doesn't mean you need to hold down the fort.
sounds fabulous! have a wonderful weekend!!! (and i'm so jealous! i wanna go for a long weekend up north with my girlfriends!!! hehe.)
"Home Alone", Oh no! ;o)
Hm, how about a boys' night out?
Btw, "Cashmere mafia with Ph.Ds in chemistry"? Hot.
Think the “Cashmere Mafia” with PhD’s in chemistry.
— love it!
Your plans sound great, btw – Enjoy!!!
I want to list all those activities in my schedule too! Lucky dog.
I would do nothing. Absolutely nothing. But since you made a list, I'll be looking for those Vox posts.
btw, love the new picture. You look tough!
"some scrabulous, piano sessions…" Uh…I'm afraid I'm not familiar with this form of piano. You'll have to enlighten me.
