I just settled into the Bangs’ apartment and how nice it is to be on vacation! Not only am I hundreds of miles away from Irvine but it’s refreshingly cold here (right now at least). I’m wearing the shorts and t-shirt that I went to work in and found myself freezing my tail off as we waited for our ride at the airport curb. Awesome. As we drove through Oakland, across the Bay Bridge, and through SF, I realized how much I missed the Bay Area. Or maybe I’m burnt out of Southern California and the heat. Whatever it may be, I am officially on vacation! I just uploaded the last part of my camp assignments, have a hefty glass of wine next to me, and life is good. Let’s all take a moment to say “Aaaaaah”. Thank you.
