...looking for the perfect job and a getaway car.
My boyfriend and I just booked a last minute flight to San Diego—it sounds spontaneous, but it was really a matter of choosing next weekend or NO weekend. So naturally, I bargained for a few days off and scored a 4-day mini trip.
Lately I’ve been in a slump—lacking inspiration and having strong feelings of utter insanity. The moment I got a “purpose”—planning a trip—I took a dive, face first into the ocean of wisdom known to most as the world wide web; My first stop, Lonelyplanet.com, of course.
I made a quick purchase on Lonely Planet, a 65-page San Diego Area chapter from the much larger (and more expensive) California guidebook. Once I print the thing, I grab a Goose Island 312 and a highlighter and get to it!
So far, this sounds like an excellent, focused plan. That is, until my mind started to wander….
I can’t wait to pack! Eww. Laundry. OOOh, what else will I finally get wear? What will I need?
Since I was in my trip-planning mode, it seemed only natural to make a wardrobe list (you know, just in case I HAVE to go buy something to save the integrity of the trip).
Turns out…I won’t need to buy anything (which is probably good for my bank account), but I will finally get to give many of my never-been-worn clothes a “purpose,” and in turn, finally feel inspired again!
Yessss…. San Diego, here we come!
