I made it back from vacation! California was awesome. Totally better than NJ. :)

It's crazy, but I'm actually glad to be back in my old work-meeting-home-service routine again. I guess that's a testament to the fact that I really needed a vacation, because before we left, I wanted to punch all my co-workers and just stay home under my covers.

I thought some of my co-workers might have sticky fingers while I was gone, so I hid all my pens, stapler and tape dispenser. However, someone took my mouse extension chord if you can believe that. I sent a note around asking who took it, and everyone responded: "What's a mouse extension chord?" so I think the computer guy must have seen it and thought it belonged to the firm, but it doesn't - it's mine. Strange thing to lose while away, huh?

But happier thoughts: The inn where we stayed in Napa was amazing. It was the most comfortable night I've spent not at home ever. And the town was adorable - like 2 square miles with 5 fantastic french restaurants all in blocks of each other. We walked to dinner each night through this little rose garden in the center of town.... ahhh... it was wonderful.
