Kristan 2 people, 6 months, 13 trips, 4 countries, 14 cities, and way too many frequent flyer miles to count. After all that, it’s official: I miss my bed.
Since August of last year, Andy and I have been traveling constantly, both for business and for fun. It feels like we’ve slept in every bed but our own, and I think our dog is starting to consider the kennel his real home. Our condo is just a place he visits sometimes, although its amenities do include complimentary chew toys.
At first, going to so many different places was exciting. Vegas, Europe, the Carolinas… Andy and I flew everywhere for everything: to attend events, see family, work on a business project, and of course, take a real vacation. Pretty soon we finished all the airline crossword puzzles. Then Andy started saying the flights felt too long, but since I often fell asleep before takeoff and woke up after landing, I really had no idea what he was talking about.
Other than visiting our families in Houston and Rochester, NY—which are always our favorite trips (Are you reading this, Mom and Dad?)—I think there were 3 vacations that stood out from the rest of our Crazy Travel.
The first was Ireland. Read the rest of this entry »

Angie I took a photo of this building when I first moved to New York. I thought it was very different and unique, and I really liked it.

Just tonight did I realize I live on the same street as this building, in fact, I live quite close by. This is what happens when you finally look up at what’s in front of you.

Angie Sometimes I’ll email my parents things I like, such as I sent my mom an email about a great Kate Spade Spring 2010 saltwater taffy dress and some bangles that she was looking for. However, it was my dad who replied, stating frankly, “I like this.”
Yeah dad, I’d like one too, except I can’t park it anywhere in New York.

Angie Since I don’t have work today, I thought I’d share some gems from my coworkers. Since I’m the baby they tell me such wonderful things that just make me laugh:
1: Angie, your face looks fat.
1: I mean it looks good. You’re so skinny normally. Must be all that food you ate yesterday.
2: Your shirt is wrinkled.
3: Angie I found a doctor for you!
4: You need to date a lawyer. Get some lawyers to take you to some nice places and pay for your dinner.
5: There’s something wrong with you. I haven’t figured it out, but I’ll let you know.

I once had a garden filled with flowers that grew only on dark thoughts, but they need constant attention, & one day I decided I had better things to do.
