Ahhhh…Vacation smells so sweet
The new job starts on April 17, so I decided to give myself a vacation to Kalifornia. There are so many songs that feature California, and they all get in your head when you’re traveling there:
California - Tupac Shakur “Duh, nuh huh nuh nuh, Dun, nuh huh nuh nuh”
California - Joni Mitchell “I’m gonna see the folks I did, I’ll eve kiss the Sunset Pig, Californiiiia I’m coming Hoome!!”
California - Phantom Planet “Calfornia, Here we coooooooome!”
Yeah, I really like it out here. I always get giddy when I fly over, because it seems so incredible that I can get here in less than a week (I have driven out a few times) Not thatt I don’t love the drive. I adore the drive. It’s my favorite in the whole world.
We did an awesome Hike in Malibu yesterday. The mountains are so much larger than I remembered. We took Turbo (who is a very good hiking dog). Quote of the week,
Karen: “I feel like I’m on the first day of ‘The Biggest Loser’”
Yep. I’m out of shape, but by the end of the week it will be all good.
Must get Julie up soon and see what adventures we have. Loooooving the weather. AAAAAAAAA!!! Wish you were here!

Dude, you are so lucky. And like everyone at the office has been saying, you get around fast! One moment you’re in DC, the next you’re in this imaginary world you folks call California.
I’d love to take off another week sometime soon and vacate the premises but that just doesn’t seem feasible. Bills, bills, bills.
Ah, well. Enjoy it while it lasts!
