no TJ for me

I am saddened deep down to my belly button lint. Being on spring break in southern California--yay for WARMTH--I was hoping to con one or more of my relatives into going south to Tijuana at some point. It seems very unlikely that this will happen. Why? Because all of my family are boring and they seek not adventures.

Granted, TJ is apparently not that great. Why would I want to go there? It's dirty. It's crazy. It's dangerous. Half-naked drunken college students go there. Precisely why I want to go! (Except I could pass on the half-naked drunken college students...) I even brought down my passport with me in anticipation of a random hop across the border.

But sadly, having no transportation of my own and being subject to the beck and call of my relatives at this point, I am unable to go on my own. (Oh my mother would die if she heard that I went to Mexico on my own...oh and my sister, and my brother-in-law, and my grandma would skin me alive.) So TJ is not going to happen this break. No Mexico for me. !Que triste!

In other news, the rest of my break is booked. Wednesday, I'm heading down to Rancho Santa Fe to have lunch with one of my mom's sisters and her husband. Wednesday night we have dinner plans with my sister and brother-in-law who are coming down from Woodland Hills. Thursday, I'm spending some quality time with my sister. Thursday night, we're going to see WICKED at the Pantages. Friday, nothing during the day, but dinner plans with my mom's other sister and her husband. Saturday afternoon, I fly back to Seattle.

Boy, I'm booked. I guess it's a good thing that all I've done the rest of my break is sleep. Course, this means that I haven't gotten my homework done. But I've spent some good time with the cats and with family. I just want to sleep a whole lot more now...
