hooray! it's friday.

*the cure- friday i'm in love*

i'm always happy when it's friday + a holiday weekend to boot. no solid plans for the festivities yet, but i know it will include some sparklers and some yummy dessert!

happy friday and hopes for a safe and fun-filled fourth!

opportunity knocking.

*i left my heart in s.f.*

i've been propositioned to fly back to the bay area next week to pick up my niece so that she can spend a month or so bouncing between our family and oma + poppa. my sister and best friend will buy my ticket, i'll have a place to stay, i can have a relaxing couple of days to roam the city and visit the beach. i'm waffling a bit because i was just there in march for a family vacation (which was very, very fun but also very hectic and jam-packed). i was glad that we were able to fit in multiple trips to the city, but as a result only squeezed in a 30 minute stay at the beach- which in my books is a crime. so i'd be able to get some quality beach time in...

trips are already planned this summer for d.c. + nyc, so i'm not sure i can fit this in my already hectic summer already...but i'm sorely tempted!

should i?
or
shouldn't i?

ay yi yi...
