Gotta get outta Dodge

Let me preface this post with this statement: I love Las Vegas. I really do. It's fun, convenient, the weather is always beautiful, I have a great job and awesome friends. 

That being said.... I REALLY need to get the fuck out of here for a few days. 

Nothing is worse than feeling stuck some place. And one of the downfalls of living in a valley is the feeling that you are stuck. Mountains on every side of you is beautiful...MOST of the time. Right now I just feel like they are closing in on me. 

What I really need is a weekend at the beach. San Diego is a five hour drive from here and we have a reliable place to put the dogs. 

BUT, work and other things always get in the way. Right now my poor husband is working every day because of the tournament. The last day of that is the 18th but he can't take any real time off because of trainings and what not. 

We do have a room booked for our anniversary at the MGM Signature. I can't wait. Sometimes a stay-cation can help. But I'll tell you this, as soon as he can get a Friday-Monday off we will be out of here. 

I need to reach the beach...with just my husband, my (NEW!) Kindle and my flip flops.....
