Another rockin’ night with the slightly crunchy mama

So, tonight the kids are on a short trip to Chicago with their dad, leaving me one peaceful night. I planned to take advantage of it. I wanted to soak in my tub, shave my legs, go to bed early, read for a few hours. I ‘ve been plotting it since we found out about the impromptu adventure at the beginning of the week.

Of course, best laid plans and all of that. I grabbed a quick shower and made a run to the mall with my friend (and VITAL’s very own artistic designer) Joy to look for a text I need for school. After that it was a thrilling trip to Target for kitty litter and qtips. Off to my sister’s for a couple of hours of cruising youtube.com before heading for home. I’m currently sitting at my desk, mostly working on homework at 11:30 p.m. Note: no long bath, legs unshaven, no early bed for a feast of words. Our evening was more fun than anything I had planned, though, and once again I’m grateful to be where I am, with the people in my life.

As a side note – I miss the hell out of my kids. As a matter of fact, I’m “feeding” my daughter’s iDog as I write this blog. Just cause he reminds me of her.
