Back from the beach. Sigh. Had a great time with [livejournal.com profile] oeilade, [livejournal.com profile] divanoir, [livejournal.com profile] bbennett, [livejournal.com profile] chanel19, [livejournal.com profile] flamingcarrot, [livejournal.com profile] harpinred, [livejournal.com profile] intopolitics and the LJ-less A. & T. Lots of eating, playing in the pool and lying around on the beach. There was a creek in back of our house that was populated with turtles, so there was also turtle watching and feeding, which was entertaining. The weather mostly held; there was just one day that it drizzled all day, but we had a good time nonetheless, filling it with shopping (Coach outlet!) and eating out and walking on the wet and windy beach. (For those of you who go to OBX, I highly recommend Kill Devil's Frozen Custard if you haven't had it before.) The rest of the week it was more like this:

I'm pretty depressed to not be there right now. Although it was nice to come home and snuggle with my kitty. :) And now, off to work tomorrow. Ugh.

P.S. One thing I really took away from this vacation is how many people in this country own hideously huge gas-guzzling motor vehicles. Literally every other vehicle down there was a behemoth. So gross. Enjoy filling up that tank as Mother Nature weeps!

P.P.S. Mad Men is so good that I kind of can't believe it sometimes.

Totally awesome. How cute was Colin Hanks?? Can't believe he's already 31 - was just a kid in Roswell short time ago, LOL. I loved that story line with him - wonder if he's going to pop in now and then and be Peggy's conscience?

And I want the outfit Melinda McGraw was wearing in the worst way, but that's my mid-century modernism love showing.

Allegra is caught up - she Netflixed all of season 1 and TIVOd season 2 through tonight and she is hooked. Another convert!

I love the Outer Banks, it's been far too long since I was there. Glad you had a good time!

Ain't that the damn truth? So good.
