Dear Vacation, I miss you

So after spending a week in Rockport, Mass. (my first full week of vaca in 2 years), needless to say it's been a little rough transitioning back into work mode. A few things that have made it a tad easier:

~Treating myself to a Starbucks a day. Those darn $2 iced grande coupons keep me coming back for more.

~My usual taste in quality TV - I'm all caught up on Real Housewives of ATL!

~The book I'm reading - Eat Pray Love

~Eating at Varasono's - YUM. I've been hearing about how good it is for months. My condo had a happy hour there and I got to sample about 6 different kinds of pizza.

~Speaking of glutinous eating, nothing to make you get back to real life faster than going to a pilates class, which made me fiercely regret my week of gorging on seafood, taffy, and fudge.

~Pics! . . .

It was H-O-T

but cool inside! (sort of)

Beach, beers, and bros!

Careful! We had an incident at one point while maneuvering across the rocky coast. I won't name any names, let's just say his name rhymes with "miss".
