But that was family, and since I didn’t have an actually
vacation planned, I went out to New York
for almost two weeks to hang out, shop for my birthday, spend some time on the
Jersey Shore, see some friends… it was
wonderful fun! I was starting to feel
really decadent after buying both $35 purses and visiting the most
amazing, Asian chair-massage, again. And
there was a hurricane!! Well, not
really, but I was the last train out of the city before they shut it down. There was enough rain to flood the only road
out of town where we were staying farther north. Little did I know that the snowball was just
starting down the hill…
Instead of getting in the plane to fly home and get to work,
I suddenly had a week off and the opportunity for a new car, so I got in my new
car and drove home. Yes, from NY to
LA. Holy crap, a new car! With more than one working speaker! I took my time, covering 300-700 miles a day,
staying with friends when I could, totally enjoying the ride and scenery… I can
now jack my phone and computer into the stereo!
My own music in the car?!? I was
either going to blow out my ears or my speakers. And I was transporting gear for a friend that
included a mixing board… I had so many
fantasies about bringing that Macky up to the passenger seat and just mixin my
way West!
