What's the best way to spend a vacation? Stay home and relax, or go somewhere on a trip? If you want, post your answer.
Here's the recap of my vacation over Thanksgiving.
Ok, so I'm back from my trip up north. Here's my greatest accomplishment. Jill and I went jogging around the reservoir, which is like 8 miles, and then we walked 8 miles back. Not a personal record, but still a lot. I'm not thinking of joining a marathon or something, it was just something that I always wanted to do. It takes a long time though and it's so windy that you can barely take it, especially considering that we ran it 3 days before Thanksgiving and it was freezing up there.
After that, we chilled with my friend Mel down at Bonnies and then went onto see the rents. On the day before Thanksgiving, we went to NYC and walked around Times Square. That was a lot of fun. I don't even want to look at my credit card bill. I almost forgot! We went to eat out twice and both times the bill was like 200 bucks. I mean, it was worth it because we took some friends out and grandma and jack out, but still, we're going to be washing dishes to pay this one off.
Funny story - at one point, we were going to the store to get a jersey for me (guess which team) and we had to pay a toll. Mom is digging for change and I tell her to get rid of some of her pennies. She tells me that I'm out of my mind because where she lives if you try to give them pennies, they'll throw them back at you and tell you to front up some real money. Ok, I guess you had to be there. The imagery of one of these guys throwing change back at the car was pretty funny though.
