An email eavesdrop...

So in case you did not gather from my other emails, The Old Man and I are going up to Chico this weekend. We thought his niece's graduation [from Cal State Chico] was next weekend...
Take note. This is what happens when you leave trip details to the man of the house.
[Nephew going to Cal State Chico] actually emailed me over the weekend and said he thought the graduation ceremonies were this weekend, so I made The Old Man double-check the invite. Lo and Behold. Doh!
Well, the good news is that we get a long weekend, due to Memorial Day. So we are going to stay Saturday & Sunday nights and drive home on Monday...driving back in to LA with all of the other lunatics who decided to leave town for Memorial Day weekend. Delightful. Well, we aren't leaving home until early Saturday morning, so hopefully we won't hit much traffic on the way up. It's going to be a long drive, but I am actually looking forward to it. We are going to take our time and if we want to stop somewhere, we are just going to stop.
Road Trip! :)

The bad news about our change in weekend plans is that I was supposed to go see the Detroit Cobras on Saturday night! Ergh...they are playing Wednesday night at the Troubadour in Hollywood and I will most likely go then, instead. But it would have been far more desirable to see them Saturday as they are actually playing in the OC that night and my drive would have been cut by two-thirds. Two-thirds less drive time means two-thirds more drinking time!
I kid,kinda of course, but still – who wants to drive to Hollywood - on a school night even - when one can simply wait a few days and drive like fifteen minutes down Pacific Coast Highway?
