GUYS! I&#8217;M EXCITED.<\/p>\n<p \/>I just booked plane tickets for our cruise. This makes it totally official. No, I haven&#8217;t booked the cruise yet, shut up. It&#8217;s in January. However, I used frequent flyer miles for the plane tickets, and that made them <strike>free<\/strike>$20. SCORE.<\/p>\n<p \/>The cruise happens exactly a year from the day a bunch of us went to Vegas together. The same group (plus Cindi) is now taking to the sea. It&#8217;s going to be insanely awesome.<\/p>\n<p \/>Friday night, we hung out on the patio of Town Hall with Kris and Orsi. I ate a pretzel there, and took the other half of the order home with me for later. I liked that pretzel so much, I threatened to make Matt sleep on the couch so the pretzel and I could share the bed.<\/p>\n<p \/>Thankfully, this plan fell apart later, when said pretzel got eaten. With pizza sauce.<\/p>\n<p \/>We awoke early on Saturday, hopped in Miguel, and headed off on the <a href='http:\/\/cashbox.livejournal.com\/359323.html' target='x'>SuperSecret Anniversary Roadtrip<\/a>, which Matt has done us the courtesy of recapping, complete with links. So I don&#8217;t seem too much of a slacker, I present you with <a href='http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/queen_of_subtle\/sets\/72157600214787200\/' target='x'>many photos<\/a>, including some of goats.<\/p>\n<p \/>Since we had to drive past the sign to get to the goats, I had a feeling he guessed where were were staying the second he saw it, but that made it no less awesome. I still can&#8217;t get over how great the <a href='http:\/\/www.jailhouseinn.com' target='x'>Jailhouse Inn<\/a> is; I expected maybe a room with bars, and instead got an entire cellblock. With a gigantic whirlpool tub. While we had to supply our own champagne, they provided the ice bucket and glasses. So fantastic.<\/p>\n<p \/>Also, waking up to light streaming between the bars of your jail cell? Hopefully an experience I&#8217;ll only have there.<\/p>\n<p \/>We got home around noon on Sunday, and spent much of the day not wearing pants. I couldn&#8217;t figure out why the hell I was so uncomfortably sweaty until I left to go to my mom&#8217;s, and Miguel told me it was 90 degrees outside. I had dinner with the family, celebrating Mothers&#8217; Day and my dad&#8217;s birthday (today: he&#8217;s officially a senior citizen now. Wow.), and then I hung out and knitted while watching the Twins game. Not so much to watch baseball (though the 400,000-run disparity was kind of fascinating), but to see when Matt would be arriving home. You see, when I set foot in my apartment after dark, my cats try to eat me.<\/p>\n<p \/>Today I&#8217;m very much suffering from weekend-hangover, which is painful coupled with the 80-degree temperatures in the office. Thankfully, I&#8217;ll be leaving shortly and heading to swing-dance class. It&#8217;ll be sweaty, but awesome as always.<\/p>\n<p \/>And, um, plane tickets. For our cruise. Oh yes.<\/p>\n<p \/>Jenni<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OH MAN. GUYS! I&#8217;M EXCITED. I just booked plane tickets for our cruise. This makes it totally official.
