Vacation!
Background image taken outside the Main Building, Roses in the Snow.
A snow-covered parking lot filled me with dread as I left the University this evening, but the giant sun sinking to the West reminded me of the day to come. Tomorrow morning, bright and early, I will follow that sun to the West and bask in it's warmth for 6 long, glorious days with Brandon during our much-anticipated vacation.
Since I haven't had a true vacation in longer than I can remember, I'm going to set up an auto-response for my email, provide the hotel phone number in my voicemail message for emergencies, and effectively unplug for the duration of the trip.
When you see me next, I'll be a little tanner, a lot more rested, and ready to write a summary of my year + outline my expectations for 2012. Oh, and I'll tell you about Hawaii, too.
