We all think that 6+ weeks of travel would be a blast right? And somewhere along the line, we may have forgotten that we’ve grown up a little, no longer the college-age backpacker, and really, we actually just prefer our own bed? When planning this trip, I seemed to sidestep that little fact. I think I need to stick to shorter forays next time. I really do love my own bed.

These thoughts make themselves apparent as I’m sitting in the warm New York City sun, anxiously looking forward to my return to Austin tomorrow afternoon. After this two-and-a-half week East Coast loop that saw Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island [Anne of Green Gables rejoice!], my littlest brother graduating, said littlest brother and girlfriend become engaged [!!!happydance!!!], many delicious meals out in NYC, client meetings for east coast fall weddings, a little personal shopping, and general basking in all that is the big apple … I think I’m ready to head southwest. This face seems to be calling my name, and I’m a total sucker for those ‘sad eyes’.

More updates to come this week, as well as an official blogging plan that hopefully, will rectify this whole lackadaisical schedule of mine as of late.
