I'm headed back to Elmhurst tomorrow. This time it's a very short trip, Thursday-Sunday. I'm going back to help my dad paint the bedrooms, see the Bulls/Timberwolves game (in amazing seats I might add!), and of course....drink! I don't drink much when I'm here in Minnesota, but having a lovely bar a few blocks away from our house in IL makes an evening of drinking hassle free. I think Andy gets mad when I won't go out drinking here...but frankly, I'm too lazy to drive all the way to St. Paul to have a few drinks, when once of us needs to stay sober enough to drive home! I prefer wandering to the bar, drinking as much as I want, then stumbling home avoiding skunks and possums at all costs. Perfect right?! I'm very much looking forward to my short vacation! And, if that isn't enough, I'll be back to Elmhurst December 26th-January 3rd! Seriously, I travel so much sometimes I get confused as to where I am. A few weeks ago I came out of Target, and as I approached my car (with an IL license plate) I noticed that on each side of me were cars with Minnesota license plates. I was shocked at the coincidence and kind of found it funny. Then after a few miles of driving I realized I was actually in Minnesota, not Illinois. And that isn't the first time I'd have to stop and think, wait, what state am I in??? So yeah, probably a sign I should stay in Minnesota a bit more.
As much as I love going home, 2007 will be the year of little travel. Well, with the exception of Florida in March and Mexico in May! I really have to stop going home all the time though, I'm becoming super spoiled.

I am soooo jealous that you are going to the T-Wolves game. Can I go with next time? I love going to those games, and with good seats man you are spoiled! And about all the traveling, it is a bit much. Tori probably goes through withdrawls.. not to mention Andy! Have fun and don't drink too much or one of those random possums may take advantage of you! And why are you going to Florida and Mexico? Man I want to go somewhere warm, will I fit in your suitcase!
Mandy, you can totally come with me to Mexico and Florida! Start stretching now so that by March you can fit in my fanny pack.
Wow, I was at least hoping for your carry on, but I have no fear I will fit in the fanny pack by March! I am so excited, I have never been to Mexico!
