And so. I'm excited yet strangely dubious. I'll perhaps find out I've scheduled us to do something oddly European. Oh well. It's paid for, I have a job, I'm turning 40. It's all good.
Thank you and good night.

math and stuff
So. I've had three glasses of wine in four hours, plus lots of fun company (Hi Jen & Dave & Joy & Kyle! You're awesome!), and I've finalized my our trip to Europe this summer. Even though I've obsessively painstakingly, lovingly researched the logistics & cost of this fabulous 40th birthday extravaganza vacation (including variations on London + Paris vs. London + Paris + Amsterdam vs. London + Paris + Amsterdam + multiple locations in the vicinity, et cetera) for many months, somehow I got to the final JUST BOOK IT phase without double-checking where and when we'll be flying in & out. So apparently we're leaving from Seattle (which is closer to where my parents/child caretakers are, fine) but flying back into Portland (15 minutes from our home) then on to Seattle. Huh. Yet I've f*cking booked it. Finally.
And so. I'm excited yet strangely dubious. I'll perhaps find out I've scheduled us to do something oddly European. Oh well. It's paid for, I have a job, I'm turning 40. It's all good.
Thank you and good night.

So you are going! Holy crap, you doing it all.
I need to get me one of those jobs I hear about...
Glad you had a great time.
Green with envy here.
How exciting to nail down the deal. It really sounds wonderful. Are you taking Stu and the kids?
Oh how exciting!! Now that it's booked it seems all that more real. FUN FUN!!
Yeah!! I just went to Italy for my 40th last November!!! It will be a trip to remember! :o)

Somewhere, in Los Angeles, a woman just turned green. Her name is not important.
Thank goodness. Now the individual activity planning madness can start... STONEHENGE!!!!!!
Mrs. G.: The kids are staying with the in-laws. Right now they are wowed by the pool at hotels. We are not taking them all the way to Europe just so they can reminisce about the pools there.
-Stu
seattle + london + paris + you + stu + childcare that isn't in london or paris + back to portland = yay you!
GRRR!!! I'm happy for you- just jealous as can be!!
wow - that's awesome! whatever combination you end up with will unravel itself into a fabulous journey!
