Hi everyone. As you’ve probably noticed, I may or may not have taken a small (4 month) hiatus from posting anything. I’m not going to make excuses or even offer an explanation, but just know that I’ve missed you.
I’m sitting in the San Diego commuter terminal as I write this. Snooping around, listening to peoples’ conversations (the lady next to me is meowing into her cell phone…), unfairly judging horrible travel outfits. I’m about to embark on an adventure of a lifetime. This flight is going to take me to LA, the next to Houston, and after that, Buenos Aires, Argentina and finally Cordoba, Argentina. Hey thieves, try my condo, I won’t be home and I have lots of electronics!
My brother and A2 (the girlfriend) are currently waiting for my mom and me to arrive in Cordoba in a couple of days. They’ve been down there for something ridiculous – like three weeks – now and have been doing and seeing and eating their way around South America.
Truth be told, I really need this trip. I’ve had a bit of a heavy and rocky start to 2011 and could use a little adventure to escape the reality of every day life for a bit. My personal life has been flipped upside down and slammed on it’s head, and I’m at the point where I could really use a reward for keeping my shit together and not absolutely losing my mind. So here you go, Me. Go see Argentina.
While I’m there, I’ll be eating, seeing, talking, laughing, jumping out of planes (I KNOW!), and thoroughly enjoying. You’re jealous, I can sense it. But in the meantime, take a look at what’s been happening since we last visited.
Nick graduated!
I was there to witness it.
Christmas happened.
The fire department paid a visit.
I saw an amazing sunset.
My mom came to visit and we ate dessert.
A whole bunch of us went wine tasting.
Downtown exploded! Not really, but there were 14 fire trucks out one night.
San Diego got some new street art.
Here too.
I went to a car swap meet & saw this fixer upper.
Laura made an amazing King’s Cake. She also got married.
I got a rose shaped like a heart for Valentine’s Day.
I did NOT get to go to this, but it would have been awesome, I bet.
I got these for Valentine’s Day from my parents, and I’m not done eating them yet. They’re too pretty.
