Vacation

It's been a while since I took vacation from work and actually went somewhere. I've taken a day or two here and there to go to PA for the day. Or took a few days for my friend's wedding.

This time I took 2 weeks off I spent the week at home and then took 4 days and went to Colorado. I freaking love it out there. Billy doesn't understand why I like it out there so much. Quite simply, it's not New Jersey. I flew out on American Airlines on Saturday. I hardly slept the night before. It wasn't my first time flying but I am kind of a nervous flyer. Saturday once I got into Colorado I was sick, I felt awful. I'm not sure it if was food poisoning, we had chili cheese dogs the night before, or it is was motion sickness or altitude sickness.
I was fine the first time I went to Colorado so I am unsure of what was actually wrong. Anyway, so Sunday we just hung out in our PJ's and watched Naked and Afraid XL.  It was a marathon. I can confidently say that if my friend and I were to get stuck in the jungle of Brazil of the desert of Africa, we can survive for at least 40 days. We know what not to eat. And were to go. Ha. Don't eat the fruits no matter how appetizing they look. Monkey and bat poop are on them and that will nearly kill you.


On Monday, we went to Boulder and walked the Pearl Street Market. The people are so nice. They are always smiling. I'm sure most of the smiles are because they are as high as the mountains. I'll never get used to marijuana being legal there. They don't hide it. It's so strange. Here they do it out in the open but more conspicuously.


I wish my husband would go to places like this with me. I get hit with the "Oh they are your friends." "I don't know anyone there. What would I do?" "I hate the mountains." "Jersey has all I need." He doesn't understand that I want to travel the world WITH HIM. I want to see things WITH HIM. I want to experience things WITH HIM. I want to show him Colorado so he can see why I like the place. The air is different. It's not home. It's not like I am rushing to move out there, although that would be nice. But all I want is for home to visit there with me.




Overall, I had a nice time. It was a nice little getaway. I want to go back for a little longer than 4 days.

R, J, A, Z and K, I love you guys and miss you. Can't wait to come visit again.
