Hmm. I was going to Galveston for the beach and just veg for a day or so, and then Lake Charles because it's midway between Galveston and New Orleans. If selling you on New Orleans would be easier than selling you on Galveston, I could just meet you there and cut the first part of the trip short.
Eta, as Dana pointed out, Lake Charles is just a casino, which I already knew/mentioned wasn't your thing at all. If Galveston does interest you, we can find some other place to break up the trip or just do the drive in one day.
One of my goals for the summer is to not start the work week already tired and worn out.
I know. This was a shit weekend for me, and I'm completely drained. And I have a five-day week! (I know, I know...)
New Orleans New Orleans New Orleans New Orleans!!!!!
Add me to the feeling crappy on MOnday list.
plus+ I made an error on something on Friday AND forgot to send in something to my boss by SUnday, SO he is ALL SORTS of PO'd at me. AWESOME.
50 minutes later, and barring any last minute stupidity between now and Friday, this girl has a new cheaper mortgage for the next 26 years! I'm saving almost $120 a month & I may be getting a check, too (depends on whether the semi-annual taxes were already paid out of escrow or not, bill is issued July 1, it might have been processed already.) If so, I guess I should do the responsible thing and put that towards principle?
lisah, thanks for the title rec. They were great about explaining everything.
Now to figure out what to do with the rest of my day off. It is brutal out there today.
eta: I guess I ate all potential monday good, sorry!

Go team refi! We ended up saving $200/month, and got back close to $1,000 because of taxes already being paid, etc.
We should put it back towards principle, but we also need to buy wedding rings. So, a little torn.
Go you, yay!
Tax payment was scheduled to be on the 13th, but hasn't shown up as paid yet online, so we'll see.
Woo, you guys!
I just got my review from my boss and it is...not great. It is not terrible, either, and I am actually surprised at how highly I rated myself! Ugh.
Congrats, sara!
I sent my boss a note about taking a week+ off at the end of the month and his response was "Well deserved, have fun". So nice!!!
am paying bills at work. Normally would not be so thrilled at that, but I am getting papers off my desk and that is good, both for my headspace and for the fact that angry boss is a bit ocd about cleared off desks, so this should bode well if he is in the office tomorrow.
