by myself on this cheapie

was when you got back she

plans are settled ! look for

boils herself on some white

But nonetheless taking the
plane was the only smart
thing to do, especially since
my wife had booked us two
months in advance.
Next year I think I'll leave
all the vacation plans up to
my wife as she's the one who
really enjoys getting away
and doing things. Me, I'd
rather stay home and paint
the house.
