Summer Continues...

Simple remedies when life feels like lemons:

1. A full pitcher of pina coladas.
2. A bestest friend from college who thinks you're awesome.
3. A sea food feast.




I had to leave our place in Miami Beach. Period.

And I had the bestest offer from my bestest friend from college. Come stay with her in Nags Head, North Carolina and then go on a road trip next weekend to Princeton, NJ that will snake through Washington, DC, down to Charlottesville, VA, to friends in Charleston, SC then detour to Savannah, GA on our way back to Miami.

Simple. Buy ticket, have great Miami friend take me to airport, fly away.

First day in Nags Head = just what the doctor ordered.

Things I've done so far today:
1. Slept in. First good night's sleep in awhile.
2. Drank a lot of ocean trying to boogie board. Only thought I lost my bikini bottoms twice, and luckily never did. Waves here are totally different.
3. Caught up on my cosmo reading by the pool.
4. Jogged on the beach and did a p90x ab ripper extreme video (thanks, lindsay)
5. rode 14 miles on a pink beach cruiser and bought my first bag of pretzel m&ms

More pics to follow. More poems, more stories and more adventure. Two weeks until I have to go back to work.
