"Finally!" Thursday

Lots of finally's today: fall fashion, my Chicago friend back in Boston for a night out on old stomping grounds, and booking our Palm Beach trip!

Yes, that's right folks, we are heading to gorgeous Palm Beach for 5 nights/6 days in just three weeks, at the Marriott Ocean Pointe Vacation Club!

As you can imagine after a summer without visiting the beach, my toes are aching to squeeze some warm sand.

All I want to do is lay on the beach and soak up the rays (this girl needs a tan pronto!). I'm looking forward to a bit of water fun as well... maybe some jetskiing or a catamaran sail with snorkeling?

And some serious sleeping in enjoying our one-bedroom villa(!). Maybe room service breakfast in bed is called for???

Between changing jobs and changing addresses, I need some major relaxation. I think the daily grind has been getting to Jed and I, so a little R&R and adventure is just what we need.

Oh don't you worry, this girl will be packed with itinerary in hand within a week!

For now, I'm super looking forward to getting out of work in a half hour and heading into Boston to see my Chi friend and meeting his new girlfriend! I love visiting college haunts and throwing back a few with old friends. Sadly, I will not have pictures as I rushed out of the house this morning without my camera.
