Hump day and something to look forward to

So I promised to tell you about why I am so excited about this coming weekend. Me and two other great girlfriends are headed to the windy city for a long weekend. Instead of blowing all my Christmas money at Target like I do every year, I am using it to go see a musical that I have wanted to see for about 8 months now. It was playing in New York City last time I went and I wanted to see it but the tickets were not available for a good price. The Musical is called “Wicked” and the music is out of this world! (I have been listening to the soundtrack none stop) It is based on a book and it is pretty much the life story of the wicked witch of the west and the good witch, Glinda.

We leave Friday just after work and come back on Monday (Thank you Martin Luther King for the day off work) We plan to eat some good pizza, shop at IKEA until we are blue in the face, hit some great little local stores and go see the show. I am mostly just looking forward to being together and laughing with two wonderful people.

Not to worry all, Brett is headed to Orlando for a business trip this weekend so this time he does not have to stay alone while I am out hitting the town with my girls. Many of you get on my case about taking off without my favorite guy but it just always works out. I either get a good hook up to go somewhere for super cheap and I have lots of vacation to use up. Although, Brett and I just booked tickets last night to head to Denver for a long weekend in March for a little skiing and visiting some great friends of ours.
