Alright people, as sure as I am that you are just dying to hear, in full detail, all about my intense week at work, I will have to refrain because well, it was an intense week at work and there are far too many things going on. Here’s just a short re-cap for you though:
1) Yes work has been insane. I keep expecting it to slow down but it just hasn’t happened yet.
2) The past week I have tried to fit in as much best friend time as possible (see #4)
3) The Zeke-monster turned 4 and my stepmom turned 21 (kidding, love you Stepmom!!!) both in the past week.
4) My best friend is on her way to the Dominican as your read this…the exact reason why I have been trying to fit in as much best friend time as possible (also see paragraph below for a very mushy, gushy “I LOVE MY BFF” paragraph)
5) I leave for BEA in about 48 hours. I have nothing ready for it.
6) My phone broke yesterday. Clearly I do not want to be wandering around New York without a cell phone. Hurray for using my credit card for the first time!!!
7) My reward for sending in my taxes on time is an EXTREMELY LATE return. Note to self: Do NOT plan a whole trip around your tax return check without actually receiving your tax return check.
On top of me being an emotional basket-case over my best friend leaving, I have also been attempting to get ready for my own mini adventure! In just a couple of days I will be arriving in New York for my very first time. From the second my plane lands I will be whisked off to the Book Blogging Convention and the rest of the trip is crammed full of plans to do BEA and also do tourist-y type things with my parents. It is going to be a week of no sleep but more fun than I can even imagine. So wish Kati and I luck as we each embark on these amazing experiences.
p.s. Due to me being in New York for the next week, there will be little to no posts on the blog. I’ll miss you guys!

Super jealous you get to go to bEA (as I am of everyone I know going) but so happy you have something to brighten your time right after Kati’s departure. It’ll fly by !! :-)
I hope you know that I am EXTREMELY excited to see you in just a few more days. We are going to have an AMAZING time. I just know it!!
