Mia: The fancy beach house works with a lot of women, doesn’t it?
Charlie: Honestly, it’s like a G-spot with two mortgages. -Two and a Half Men

Carmel was incredible. We had sun almost every day, which is unheard of for that area. We played on the beach, we took long walks at night, we lounged around doing nothing. We put together an insanely hard puzzle. We shagged on the floor of the guest room because the twin beds were way too squeaky. In short, it was a great vacation.

When we first got there, I was preparing myself for a sort of beach shack, because most vacation rentals aren’t typically all that luxurious. Match already warned me that we’d have to sleep in twin beds, but we’d push them together (ha!). When we got there I was floored by how nice it was. It’s an older house, but it’s beautiful, see?

Pacey: This is just one assignment. Its not like your flunking out of school.

Andie: Yeah, I know that. But you get behind by one day, and then you’re always struggling to catch up. And you become more and more confused, and then the next thing you know, you’re out on the streets drunk and pulling around a shopping cart. -Dawson’s Creek

Whew, vacation has got me so behind in everything back in the real world. I’m sorry for the lack of blogging. I’m still trying to catch up on my commenting too. If people ever tell you keeping up a blog is not work, they’re lying. With school, and this pesky thing called work, I haven’t had time to relax since I got home on Monday.

I came home to a full inbox since I didn’t open either my work or my personal laptops while I was away. Go me! I truly relaxed, and now I’m paying for it. I realized that the guys over at The Guy’s Perspective featured a little paragraph I wrote them about my thoughts on kissing.  Here’s a link to the post,  go check it out and tell me what you think!

Ok, I’m still working on my blog post for Carmel. All I can tell you right now is that it was AMAZING. I wish I lived there.

Ok, I’m off to comment and catch up with all my blog friends and your fabulous lives. Then it’s off to night class where I’m supposed to stay wide awake for four hours, after working a nine hour day. Yeah…that’s gonna happen.

Kitty: Picture yourself on a beautiful beach with a dolphin and a margarita…

Rob: What are you wearing?

Kitty: This is not that kind of massage.

Rob: Well, that’s disappointing.

Yesterday Match and I had Old Married Couple over for dinner and to hang at our new apartment. They were telling us about their upcoming trip to Cancun that they’re taking, to an all inclusive couples only resort. I’m pretty sure Match and I just starred at them drooling. How great would that be?? (more…)

Rachel: No way! The most romantic song ever was The Way We Were.
Phoebe: Uh, see, I… I think the one that Elton John wrote for, um, that guy on “Who’s the Boss?”
Rachel: What song was that, Pheebs?
Phoebe: Um, Hold Me Close, Young Tony Danza.

As some of you may recall from my Christmas post, Match’s parents got us round trip tickets to Seattle as one of our gifts. We’ve both been stressed with Match’s grueling schedule, and we really needed some time away for just the two of us, without visiting family or friends, a vacation just for us. So this Wednesday we’re headed to The Emerald City in search of fun and a little time to relax and be together as a couple.
