me time

That's the Alamo. Right outside my window. I feel so fancy! I'm tagging along to one of Todd's work conferences, and to top it off, we ditched the kids with his mom. I have 3 whole days to MYSELF! Literally all. to. myself. Todd is in classes or meetings or whatever, and I plan on wandering around this super cool hotel reading, bumming around the pool, or window shopping. I'm somewhat broken, and have zero ability to sleep in, so I'm up with the sun. But, somehow, not having to make breakfast, do laundry, or listen to Diego battle Darth Vader makes it ok. I do hope the little hoodlums are behaving themselves, but I'm going to try to push that thought out of my mind, and enjoy this little oasis of time.
Update:
We got home yesterday from a lovely 3 days of being the boss of ourselves, complete with margaritas on the riverwalk, and a trip to one of our favorite piano bars. Man, are we cool when we don't have to be all responsible parents and productive members of society. :)

You must re-learn how to sleep in. Good grief girl. I was supposed to be at work at 8 this morning and didn't wake up until 8:45. Not that I am being all that productive now that I am here catching up on my fave blogs and all! Have a blast in my favorite city. Enjoy your quiet time alone. Most importantly have a margarita for me!

Tell the Bean Counter he's a sellout for missing the softball game last night. Oh wait, I think I've already done that, like, 15 times. :-)

I want margaritas at Reunion.
