For the record, Sam, Jennifer’s now blogless husband, makes a wicked kick-ass margarita. Yummmm, yum! So the three of us are sitting here at the dining room table, each with our own laptop – Sam had two out earlier – wait, you think I’m kidding, right? I’m not. We had South Park on and were talking about Robyn and Todd and enjoying the moment (good things of course, just how much we adore you guys and wish you were here). I am here in Geek Nirvana, and we’re considering videotaping the naked guy surfing the web (it appears to be porn) on the second floor of the building. Shirtless, and we presume bottomless because of what Sam & Jenn witnessed last week, with large photos on his monitor right next to the window.

Oh, and their daughter Rachel? She’s a little angel. Too adorable for words.

My stiff and sore neck is gone, not even a glimmer of a headache today… life is good.

If I’m rambling, blame on the Jose Cuervo. God, I needed a vacation, and Sam makes a good margarita.

My flight from Houston to Boston was pretty uneventful – after we sat on the runway for an hour waiting to take off! Long flights of course mean in-flight movies, so that helped the time pass of course. Landing in Boston is scary at night! You’re flying over water, over water, over water… boom! You’re landing on a runway! Yes, for a few fleeting seconds I was nervous that we were going to land in water. But we didn’t. I got in sometime close to 1am (thanks to our delay in Houston) and Jenn came in to meet me at the baggage claim. Then it was off down the *cough* interesting road system of Boston – with these tiny roads and little exits and makeshift signs. I’m glad I wasn’t driving!

I don’t know why I worried about packing – there is a Wal-Mart not that far from here. If I don’t have it, I can get it there! The only things I have realized I left behind were the card reader for my digital camera – but Jenn has an Oympus too and has a card reader for it so I’m set – and the docking station for my Handspring, but I can probably live without it so no big deal.

So now I’m at Jenn’s house, writing this on Sam’s laptop since mine isn’t cooperating right now with their wireless network. As soon as I send an e-mail off to the boss and we get ready it’s off to do touristy things Boston! I have the digital camera with me, but I brought the “real” one too, so I can take a variety of pictures!

Don’t you just *love* packing? Yeah, RIGHT. I always end up worrying that I’ll forget something, but Jennifer has reassured me that they have stores in Boston. So the last load of clothes is in the dryer, the suitcase is pretty much packed. I have a dentist appointment at 1pm. I still need to get the cats a giant cat food dispenser and get the keys to Kymberlie so she can check in on them. Other then that? I think I’m ready to head to Boston tonight!

What are you doing for the 4th of July? Me? I’m going to Boston to see Jennifer! Whee! Sam and Rachel too, of course! Tuesday night, I’m Boston bound. So much to do! So little time! We’re working on coordinating getting together with Susannah and Erika and it might just have to turn in to a Boston Blogger party! (I owe Jess and Brian e-mails about this still!)

Speaking of e-mails, I’m having a hard time using the laptop this weekend. I turn it on, and about 5-10 minutes after it powers up the monitor goes dim, 1/3 of it almost dark gray. Oh, wonderful. Just what I need this week. It has happened once before, but I just thought it had overheated. That was back in May. Since yesterday, it’s happened every time I turn it on. Grumble, grumble…

Ok, positive thoughts. Back to Boston. If you were going to Boston, what are some of the “must see” things that you would just have to visit? If you were my tour guide, where would you take me? Suggestions, feedback, all are welcome!

I have a migraine and I’m tired of working on this proposal. Just thought I’d share that moment with you. Meanwhile, the purpose of this post is to say that if you’re one of the 8,000 people that I owe an e-mail to from earlier this week or maybe even last week (ok, not really – more like 10 or 12), my apologies but I promise I’ll write you back within the next two days.

There is a full moon right now. I had a strange dream last night, Kymberlie had a strange dream last night, Todd had a strange dream last night, one of my co-workers (Krista) had a strange dream last night. What’s up with that? Did anyone else have strange dreams? I don’t get it. Full moon and yet no new posts at Snarky Bitch. I have a migraine and I want entertainment. Hopefully someone will post something there soon – I can’t believe no one feels snarky anymore… I know *I* do!
