~Friday~ I slept in this morning, so happy to have taken a vacation day even though I was back in town, and could have worked. I spent a good chunk of time devising Thursday blog entries from the notes I’d taken on my phone of yesterday’s arduous travel day. I also took advantage of my … Read more
~Thursday~ Today’s entry is going to be mostly downbeat and whiny, as it was the last day of vacation and a not-at-all pleasant trip back to Raleigh over two flights. Feel free to stop here and come back tomorrow. The first thing I did when I got up this morning, which was at about 7:15, … Read more
~Tuesday~ I was up early again this morning, since I fell asleep so early. I’m getting up earlier on vacation than I ever do at home. Bizarre. I only had a cinnamon raisin bagel, with cream cheese, and coffee for breakfast, and I spent some time there in the poolside restaurant making several moves in … Read more
~Monday~ I was up at a decent hour, considering I was on vacation, and Joe and I had breakfast poolside at the resort restaurant and bar. I had their three-cheese omelet, which is one of my favorites, and some wheat toast, along with some coffee of course. I worked on catching up my blog for … Read more
~Sunday~ I was up at 4:45, I left for Joe’s place at 5:15, and we were at the airport at shortly after 5:30. We parked in the #4 (Orange) long-term parking lot, which started our day off with drama. Evidently, instead of just pushing a button to get a ticket in order to be let … Read more
~Monday~ We slept until 11:30, and had bagels again for breakfast. At about 1:30, Kevin headed down for a last walk through the Leather Vendor Market, and we said our good-byes, as he probably wasn’t going to get back before I left for the airport. I thought I’d take a little walk for some exercise … Read more
~Sunday~ I woke up at 11:30 and looked outside to the dreariest weather ever. It looked like it was still dark out. I rolled back over and about a minute later, there was a bang on our window. Well, I turned around to look at the window and about had a heart attack. Did I … Read more
~Saturday~ We slept in this morning, and Kevin and I officially said hello after having slept in the same room, but not having seen each other awake. Kevin checked in with his friend (nick)named Apollo to see if we could stop by his room to pick up some passes that he’d gotten for us, which … Read more
~Friday~ When I turned on my phone by my nightstand while still in bed and the voice mail indicator sounded, I knew it wasn’t good news. As calls in the middle of the night go, that was the case, although in the grand scheme of things, it wasn’t anything catastrophic like a death in the … Read more
~Monday~ We started our final day in Key West with a poolside breakfast. I know you’re: Today I had the mushroom and Swiss omelet with wheat toast, and it was yummy, yummy, yummy. We had to check out of our rooms by 11:00, and since we weren’t leaving for the airport until 4:00 or 4:30, … Read more
