I'M BAAA-AACK! Didja miss me?

Well, I'm sad to say that my summer vacation is over. :-(

I returned home from my week in California on Saturday evening and promptly fell into a sleep-deprived coma for most of the day on Sunday. :-)

But the sleep deprivation was worth it to spend a week with seven of my closest friends. We spent several days in the majestic beauty that is Yosemite, took a tour of a gold mine, cracked open some geodes, spent time in San Francisco in the Castro district and also Fisherman's Warf and Pier 39, took in the hysterical musical Beach Blanket Babylon and took a tour through the Winchester Mystery House.

I'll write up much more later, and post a few pics of the more than 300 I took, but I just have to show you guys this - I KID YOU NOT, this is the house we stayed at while in Yosemite - Villa Yosemite. The place was a freaking mansion! Check out the rotating pics of the place on the home page. It was unbelieveable!

I didn't have computer access while I was away, so I'm terribly, horribly out of the loop on what's all going on with your lives, so please let me know if something wonderful or exciting happened to you in the last week. I wanna know! :-)

Many, many thanks to alli_everyday and sen1995 for letting me know about various SPN happenings over the past week. Those new/old pics of Jensen - YOWSA!

I missed a couple of birthdays last week, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my friends alli_everyday and andeincascade. Hope you had lovely days, ladies!

And speaking of birthday's - today is janissa11's! So HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you, Em! Have a fantastic day. :-)

Ok, gotta run and get to work. Ugh. Being off for a week means coming back to hundreds of emails and a mountain of paperwork on my desk. Blech. I wish I was still in California. *g*
