a little march vacation never hurt anyone

Tuesday, March 16, 2010
i'm going to try to not rub in the fact that today is my last day of work this week.

you read that right, i'm off wednesday, thursday and friday.

between st. patrick's day (which is a company paid holiday for me), the CIFF gala, and my DC road trip with AJP and lara, this week/weekend is going to be quite the debacle.

throw in the fact that i'm going to NYC next weekend for my sissy's birthday, have teen's bachelorette party and wedding and muffin's 30th birthday celebration filling up my april and a trip to the kentucky derby for kate's bachelorette party as the cherry on top i'm contemplating how i'm even going to catch my breath.

but i wouldn't have it any other way.

do i maybe wish my wallet wasn't going to be so stressed these upcoming months?

perhaps, but you only live once.

i'm a lucky girl who has the best friends in the world.

now, if i could just trick find a smart man to keep up with me....

I love that St. Patricks Day is a paid holiday for you. I'm also excited to read about the upcoming weeks you have. You're going to wear a big hat to the derby right? Ohhh, I think you should incorporate plums on to it.
