CHICAGO !

I'm heading to Chicago - walking out the door of my office in 10 minutes!

There I'll be seeing the husband, hanging with friends, meeting up with awesome bloggers, and seeing Motion City Soundtrack play their discography!

Updates to come - though, per usual, on-the-go blogging is much easier via my tumblr!

I know I was born to lead a double life.

Last night I had to bid farewell to one of my dearest friends. We were definitely crying as we hugged each other, and I can't write more about that now, because I'm at work, and I don't need a flurry of concern over me from my coworkers at the moment. Here are some pics of the girls last night - Curbside Gang all together :

Erica and I came home to catch Motion City on DeepRockDrive.com last night, and besides the technical difficulties at the beginning of the show, it was great. It's an interesting way to present live music and it's highly interactive. At the same time, the sound itself was fabulous, along with the music. Erica and I got geeky and sent in a couple of "shout outs" to Jesse, who definitely saw one, and raised his arms in excitement. Yay!

In about two and a half hours I'm heading to LaGuardia to head to LAS VEGAS! I'm going out for the remainder of the Honda Civic Tour, which ends on Saturday in Anaheim. Then Jesse and I are taking a few days in southern California to relax. And I need it. And sleep. And Jesse :)

I've never been to Vegas, and while I don't think it'll be my fave city, I'm excited. We're staying at the Palms, his mother is also flying in, and we're seeing the Cirque de Soleil's tribute to the Beatles show. YES! The fianz knows how to do it right. And the best part? Next Tuesday when I fly back, he'll be right next to me. YAY! I'm really glad this tour is over: it was RIDICULOUSLY long. He's been gone since April! If it was long for me, I can't even imagine how long it must feel to him. But now I get him back, and for those three weeks, we already have a full itinerary. It's called FUN.

I'm stoked.
