Friends are treasures.
-Horace Bruns

oh how i love vacations..long ones, small ones, far ones, close ones..as long as it has the word vacation in it..i'll love it!..i could talk about all the cruise stuff we did..but cile summed it all up perfectly...it was basically a kick ass time with a bunch of kick ass people..how can you not have fun just eating, drinking and being merry!! so yah, even though i had some weird stares because i was wearing these cool 80's looking wrist bands to prevent me from getting seasick..it was all worth it man..so who's up for another cruise in 25 years to celebrate jenn-tot's b-day all over again..haha!..

and now..back in full swing at work...of course my work mode kicks in towards the end of the week..but ah well..at least i'm working..i swear i was sooo freaking tired when we came back..i even got a little sick w/ a cold..and instead of sleeping again after work on tuesday i ended up working out..and for some reason that work out made me feel a lot better..weird.

so these past 2 days i've been walking around downtown during lunch..yesterday we walked to the cathedral and the walt disney concert hall..i must say..those places are beautiful! i can't wait to go to the concert hall in may..the architecture is awesome..those little things always make me wonder how my work life would be if i stuck with structures instead of transpo..i guess i took the easier route..too scared to fail in a structures world..i think it'll always be one of those grand "what if's" of mine..*sigh*..maybe one day i'll get back in to it..i have no idea.

..oh yah, so i was wondering..i passed by the cathedral's gift shop..and i was looking at this painting of the last supper w/ 2 other patrons (did i use that right?)..then one of them asked me if the person to the left of jesus (this is if you're looking at the picture) was a woman...and for some reason i thought about the da vinci code and i said yes i think it is..and then he said, but i count 12 diciples (and kinda gave me a look of, uhhhhh are you crazy for thinking he's a woman?)..so yah, i felt like an idiot afterwards..i mean, i guess for those familiar w/ the da vinci code book it would have been an honest mistake...but for me to answer like that to a devout catholic, i must've given them a terrible answer huh? i felt so guilty afterwards..learning mistake i guess..i still want to read that book though, just waiting for my sister to finish it up..i wonder if it'll change my way of thought? who knows..
