Just Like That San Diego Chick

Today I'm off on a trip. Sometimes I make sort of crazy short forays North. Today I'm taking a couple of buses and at least one subway, maybe some taxis, a car ride and who knows what else. My dad's former students are having a get together at one of my favorite restaurants and I want to be there. Last time we all got together was for Auntie Blanche's funeral and that's too long. Since it's a busy time around here I'm only going for the day. A long day but still able to be classified as such, I think. I'll be home in the wee hours of Sunday and have the rest of the day to reset before a work week that dives headlong into a hell of a Halloween weekend. I could have rented a car and driven but it would have been both expensive and probably a dangerously long day. The other cool thing about this way is that I have around 10 hours of guilt-free napping, reading, and writing as I navigate the proverbial long and winding road with other folks in the driver's seat. I might also have some time to update on the fly. Are you on tenterhooks?

What are you up to today?
