I'm laying in bed now, recovering from my spontaneous trip to Vegas and SoCal. I just woke up from a 10 hour sleep. I can't emphasize how important it is to invest in good bedding. For there are times like this when you are out and about in hotel rooms, sleeping on a friend's couch or even on the floor, it feels insanely good to just come home to your own bed. A queen sized all to myself with clean and cool 500+ thread count sheets, plush goose down pillows and my fav- the Nap blanket. The last two weeks of the December always seem to be the most chaotic time of the year. The birthdays, Christmas, and NYE popping up out of nowhere. NYE at Disneyland was brilliant. Who would have known that there'd be soooo many people going! It was crazy packed. We got the hopper pass for Disneyland and California Adventures and stayed there from 9am-1am and only managed to get on about 10 rides. The midnight countdown was insane. The entire park was an outdoor club and 2 sets of fireworks went off at one time. It was worth the aching feet and lethargy I had the next morning.
Vegas never disappoints! Except for the buffet at the new hotel of City Center: Aria. Don't go there. Actually I don't know if the City Center overall is worth visiting. It's a city within a city. Bleh. Anyway, I left Vegas as a winner and not a loser. For once! =)
What I love most about this time of year is reuniting with my lovely friends who live afar. I cherish the fact that even though I don't get to see them that much, we just pick up from when we left off. Nothing awkward, nothing different. It just comes to show that our friendships are solid and real. Another thing...guys come and go, friends stay forever. True. But there is always that significant person who stands out from the rest and stands through the test of time. I'm one lucky girl to have not lost that. I have a feeling that 2010 is going to be great.
p.s. Welcome home Annie!
