I'm getting gosh darn excited about this trip. The best aspect of it is not the traveling out of town or the friends I'll be with, but the 7 days without working. Many of you know I work my full time and the do the part time at the salon. I work usually 6 full days a week. It all wears on a person and by right now, I am ready to just not work. I think I'd be just as happy to stay home for this next week and lay in bed all day as I am getting out of the states. Funny isn't it.
Many people are envious of my life style, and well they should be. As a single person I get to do, go and be whenever I want. I control my money and my spending. I also get to be spontaneous. And I love it. I have absolutely no complaints. However, I think it's important for you to know that I am also envious of you, of your partnership with someone. Of your ability to make decisions with someone. Always having someone there. Having a 2 paycheck family (while I know it's not enough, ever - it'd be much nicer to have two than 1). So, as far as I'm concerned we are all even. You are envious of my single rock-n-roll lifestyle, and I am envious of your co-habitating kids eat free lifestyle.
That being said - I have 43 hours till I get on a plane and sit on a beach for an entire week.

Have fun and Happy Birthday!
You know, I'm glad you mentioned that we are even...b/c each time I type that I am envious of you, I feel bad for even saying it. But I have to be honest. I had my time in life to do the things you do, but I chose not to. I was such a boring person in my single days. I don't have regrets though...life isn't over yet. I still have big plans to travel. I'm perfectly content with my life as is...but heck, who wouldn't want to go to Mexico for a week with a bunch of girlfriends? :) Have a great time!
