The T

I went to the work party on Friday, Ubering there on my own, and stayed 'til about twenty three of sixty something in the white elephant gift game. To my great joy, there was a side exit out of which I slipped and Ubered right on back home. This counts as one of the good things about my old boss retiring as she most assuredly would've kept tabs on me.

In addition, I'm in the midst of a rather productive vacation. I even went to the gym, whitened my teeth, and cleaned the kitchen yesterday; and cleaned the bathroom, including scrubbing down my vile shower, today. Teeth whitening and gym to follow.

I wisely mapped out happy hours with two groups of friends while I am in SD, have my nephew's birthday party to go to, dinner with mom and her new boyfriend, and, of course, Christmas and Christmas eve. One of those friends is Rachelle, who I haven't seen in ten years, and Raina, who I haven't seen in over ten and a half. Raina had been living in the Bay Area, but moved back to SD after her mom died. So the days are rather accounted for, not that that's a bad thing. Since my grandma is unable to come, which is both a bummer and a relief, I'll still have sufficient freedom to do my own thing, including checking out the old gayborhood, even though I've been doing that daily via Google Maps.

Stretching out every lovely minute of this vacay.
