Happy Valentine's Day!

We decided to celebrate by working late and eating whatever leftovers we had in the fridge so that they wouldn't spoil while we are gone next week. Luckily, Jason surprised me by getting take-out from our favorite Mexican restaurant instead, saving me from utter starvation--the miscellaneous collection of curry lentils, string cheese, and one sweet pepper available for dinner sounded pretty depressing by the time we left our respective offices after 7:30. I'm a sucker for a chicken enchilada and a man who can read my mind.

We have spent the last six weeks abstaining from sweets (sort of), eating vegetables, and bonding with the treadmill...and exchanging emails with the fam that have subject lines like "Hawaii here we come!" or "29 more days!" or "I want a sno cone!" It all comes down to tomorrow when we board the plane for LA (and a fun day with the Griffiths, Amanda, and (maybe!) Ben), then Honolulu. Jason already has the beach music teed up on his ipod.
