Mission Valley
I'm at work and the main project that I need to do is being discussed in a meeting right now. So I could be doing other things but I just don't really feel like it. I'd rather blog.
Good to hear from Mike and Mom. I really hope that Mike & Brooke get to go to Monterrey. I would most definitely be taking road trips up there to see you guys. :) It is just gorgeous up there.It was pretty nice here this weekend. Although we were warned of thunderstorms, it ended up being fairly nice although a little cool. We made it to the water for part of the weekend and it was lots of fun to just sit and people watch in Del Mar.
On Saturday I got to go to the Aviara Spa at the Four Seasons in Carlsbad. It was very, very nice. Totally full service. Anything I wanted, they would get it for me. There was one woman whose only job was emptying the towel bins - which she did about every two minutes! My alarm didn't go off so I got a somewhat stressful start to the day but I was only 15 minutes late so it wasn't too bad. I had four different "treatments", lunch rolled to me on a cart in the women's lounge, strawberries after each treatment and chocolate covered strawberries to finish it off. I got to the spa at 9:15am and didn't leave until 6pm. It was pretty amazing. Not something I would save up for but quite a luxury. I definitely appreciate my company valuing my work on the website enough to treat me to that.

Otherwise I mostly just played with my new computer this weekend. I have named him Alfred after the butler in Batman - cause he is like my butler. I love him and it is pretty hard to tear me away. I think I am having separation anxiety right now actually. Can't wait to get home and play some more. My friends have commented that it looks like an Apple store in my bedroom. And that's the way I like it. :) I'll have to post a picture of him later.
This week, among other things, I'll be preparing for what I like to call my "Fumigation Vacation". Apparently, the condos where I live have termites and so we have to leave our homes for 2 days and 2 nights at the beginning of next week so that they can tent the entire building. I have to clean out my kitchen and bathroom and bag all my food and medicine....gonna be tons of fun. I started yesterday by just cleaning the door of my refrigerator and that pretty much wore me out. I am just scared of our pantry. Luckily my friend still lives at home and they have a guest room that I have made reservations for. :)
The LOST season finale is also this week, which I am very excited for. I am continuing to avoid almost all spoilers this season and I quite like it. Makes the show more fun. I am sad that it won't be back till probably next February but I will hopefully get to see the writers and some of the cast at Comicon in July to hold me over.
That is all I can think of for now. Keep blogging people! We all like to hear what you have to say even the supposedly "boring" stuff. :)
