Ten things I learned this weekend
1. No matter how long you're gone from somewhere, there are always people who remember you and are glad to see you again.
2. Only one working elevator in a 7-story hotel building makes for very long waits and very short-tempered tourists.
3. There is absolutely nowhere to get home-cooked vegetables for dinner when you're not in your own home....unless you go to a Mom and Pop's place (which can be sketchy).
4. There is nothing that a little bit of chocolate can't fix.
5. When Ken and I put our minds to it, we can "clean up real nice." (previous quote said in a heavy, Southern drawl)
6. There is never a silent moment in the car with two people like Ken and I. You'd think we'd have stopped finding things to talk about after this long....but five years of marriage later, we're still just as interested (if not more so) in what the other has to say. Talk wins over radio or CDs any day. :)
7. Weird he-she's driving El Caminos with small, yappy dogs in the backseat who pull up beside you while you're filling up at a delapidated gas station should be avoided.
8. The most fun part of wedding receptions (or any other big event) is the people-watching.
9. Don't put food on your plate that you can't recognize....the little ham-sandwiches canapes that you spotted on the tray might just end up being sushi.
10. When you're least expecting it, childhood flashbacks of friends appear in your memory, and suddenly it violently pulmets you over the head that time really DOES fly. Make every second count, and don't wish your life away.
