Time To Have Fun, Damnit

I am On Vacation. Away from work for a week, and doing my level best to relax.

I have already been to a beautiful wedding, seen many long-lost friends that I haven't had the chance to catch up with in way too long, met a good friend's SO, and discovered a lovely little restaurant.

Today we're going to tourist around a city I've visited many times but never actually explored, meet other friends for dinner, and then going out dancing.

Sounds perfect, doesn't it?

It probably would be, if it weren't for the insomnia that yanked me out of bed in a deep panic at 6am. Darnit, I went on vacation to get away from that kind of stuff. To remember how to breathe, and how to think about something other than whatever happens to be worrying me at the moment.

Oh, well. At least I have borrowed internet to distract me. And when this is done, I have the new Kelley Armstrong novel, which is even better than the last couple she's written. And in an hour or two my better half will be up, and we will go exploring, and there will be good friends and good food and dancing tonight.

Dancing at the wedding. Dancing tonight. Dancing at Intercon this coming weekend. If this doesn't heal my soul, nothing will.....

Looking forward to seeing you this afternoon!

Are you vacationing locally or have you gone traveling? I know Intercon isn't local...

I'd say, "Have fun on your vacation!" but it appears as though you've already got a handle on that. May it continue to be throughly enjoyable.

Looking forward to dancing with you at Intercon!

Dancing at IMA -- now there's something to be looking forward to! I still don't know what I'm wearing either night -- my Sadie-Hawkinsesque skirts and pants are too darned big now, and I'm not sure what kind of cocktail-y clothes I have that are good for dancing -- but at least now I'm working with a goal!

Thank you for that reminder!

On another topic completely, I can't remember -- what ended up being wrong with your knee? I'm trying to keep from panicking about mine.

Glad you're having a good time. Sorry about the early morning panic, but VERY glad we'd already had the "go ahead, use the Internet" discussion yesterday so you didn't feel like it was an intrusion.

I will miss you guys tomorrow. Seriously, seriously, seriously miss you guys.

Have tons of fun! (And do post your reaction to Dragonhaven whenever you get around to reading it, I'd love to know!)

I want to see you! Any chance you'll be free any time this coming week? I should be around for at least part of IMA, but I'm not sure just how available I'll be…
