Time for a Vacation!

In just a few short hours, we will be headed here:


I am very much looking forward to this little getaway. It's time for a small break from the fast paced life of reality to just sit and enjoy some time together.

You see, as most of you know, I work night shift. This means going to work at 6pm and coming home anywhere between 6:30 and 7:30 in the morning. Don't get me wrong, I really do love working at night, it definately has its benefits. But, there is one main downfall: when working multiple days in a row, I am pretty much secluded from the world. My room-darkening shades make our bedroom a dark cave (although I absolutely love them), and during daylight hours, you will find me snuggled in the darkness getting some sleep.

Because of this, Joel and I will literally go days without seeing eachother. Aside from me coming home in the morning and getting a quick, sleepy 'hello' on his way to the shower, and maybe even a quick phone-call from me on my drive back to the hospital, we don't see eachother.

So for the weekend, we will be spending some quality time together. We will be meeting my parents and some friends in Las Vegas, and I am really looking forward to it. A few days to kick back and relax. There may even be a suprise in store . . . Stay tuned.
